Activation

This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

Comprehensive manuscript review with three modes: single-pass (default), --adversarial critic-fixer loop, and --peer [journal] simulated peer-review pipeline (editor + 2 dispositioned referees + editorial decision, calibrated to a target journal). R&R continuation via --peer --r2/--r3; hostile-editor stress test via --peer --stress. Auto-invokes /review-r + /audit-reproducibility on referenced scripts unless --no-cross-artifact.

Key capabilities

  • Locate and read the manuscript from various paths
  • Evaluate the manuscript across six dimensions
  • Generate 3-5 referee objections
  • Produce a complete review report
  • Save the report to `quality_reports/`
  • Simulate an editorial pipeline with editor and two blind referees

How it works

The skill reads the manuscript, evaluates it across six dimensions, generates referee objections, and produces a review report. It can also simulate a peer-review pipeline with different personas and dispositions.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Path to a paper (.tex, .pdf, or .qmd) or a filename in `master_supporting_docs/` with optional flags
You get back
A thorough, constructive academic manuscript review report, potentially with an editorial decision

When to use review-paper

  • Simulate peer review
  • Stress test manuscript
  • Get referee feedback

About review-paper

Performs multi-mode manuscript reviews, including simulated peer-review pipelines with adversarial critic-fixer loops and journal-calibrated referee reports.

Comprehensive manuscript review with three modes: single-pass (default), --adversarial critic-fixer loop, and --peer [journal] simulated peer-review pipeline (editor + 2 dispositioned referees + editorial decision, calibrated to a target journal). R&R continuation via --peer --r2/--r3; hostile-edito

When not to use it

  • When the user already has referee comments and needs a response document
  • For lecture slides instead of papers
  • When the user needs seven independent lenses in parallel for review

Limitations

  • Hard cap at `--r3` for R&R continuation mode
  • WebSearch for novelty checks can return hallucinated citations
  • Does not automatically handle non-econ paper types in `methods-referee.md` without extension

How it compares

This workflow offers multiple review modes, including an adversarial critic-fixer loop and a simulated peer-review pipeline calibrated to specific journals, providing a more structured and complete assessment than a single, generic rev
