Academic Paper Writing

What it does

This skill teaches an agent the full academic paper writing workflow: building a reviewer-focused argument, structuring critical sections (abstract, introduction, evaluation), producing figures and tables, and iterating through drafts to camera-ready submissions. It codifies reviewer psychology, paragraph and sentence standards, figure and experiment requirements, and a three-phase writing process (fast output, restructure, refine). The guidance is practical and prescriptive, aimed at producing submissions that anticipate reviewer objections and present reproducible evidence.

When to use it

Use this skill when drafting or revising papers for AI or systems conferences, preparing rebuttals, designing experiments and visualizations, performing literature reviews with a focus on argumentation, or producing camera-ready formatting and submission checks. Avoid using it for non-academic copy (blogs, marketing) without adapting tone and scope.

Compatible agents
