Paper Drafter (Academic Section Writer)

Purpose

The paper-drafter skill is the fourth stage in the 5-stage journal generation pipeline (Plan -> Analyze -> Augment -> Draft -> Review). It transforms the raw synthesized facts from the analyzer (or augmenter) into a highly polished, publication-ready academic section.

Input

  • YAML Plan: The docs/paper/Yantra/drafts/plan/plan_[section_name].yaml (for drafting instructions).
  • Analysis Document: The docs/paper/Yantra/drafts/details/[N]. [Section Name]/augmented_analysis_[section_name].md (if stage 3 was executed) OR docs/paper/Yantra/drafts/details/[N]. [Section Name]/analysis_[section_name].md (if stage 3 was skipped).

Output

A formally drafted markdown section saved to docs/paper/Yantra/drafts/details/[N]. [Section Name]/draft_[section_name].md.

Responsibilities

  1. Academic Prose: Convert bullet points, raw facts, and disjointed models into cohesive, formal, Scopus-indexed quality academic prose.
  2. Formatting: Correctly embed LaTeX for mathematical equations and Mermaid.js syntax for system architecture/interaction diagrams based on the analysis file.
  3. ESWA Visual Hierarchy Rule (Mandatory for Methodology): When drafting the "Proposed Methodology" section, you MUST format and output two distinctly separate architecture diagrams:
    • Logical Architecture ("Brain"): Conceptual flow, agent interactions, decision layers (strict segregation: NO infrastructure).
    • Physical Architecture ("Body"): Deployment structure, containers, APIs, databases (strict segregation: NO conceptual logic).
  4. Adhere to Instructions: Follow the explicit drafting styles, structural requirements, and tonal guidelines defined in the instructions.drafter section of the YAML plan.
  5. Integration: Ensure the section flows logically and is suitable for later integration into the FINAL_JOURNAL_REPORT.md by the orchestrator.

Operating Principles

  • Rooted in Analysis: The drafter must only write about concepts established in the analysis document. It cannot introduce new technical claims or empirical results not provided in the input.
  • Formal Tone Avoidance: Avoid casual language, marketing speak, or colloquialisms. Use passive voice where customary in technical journals.
  • Visual Callouts: Explicitly format diagrams or mathematical blocks so they render correctly in standard markdown parsers.

Supporting Materials

  • Examples: Refer to the examples/ directory for expected input/output artifacts.
  • Resources: Refer to the resources/ directory for critical guidelines, constraints, and tone rules.
  • Scripts: Refer to the scripts/ directory for programmatic execution components.
