Manuscript Review

Produce a thorough, constructive review of an academic manuscript -- the kind of report a top-journal referee would write.

Input: $ARGUMENTS -- path to a paper (.tex, .pdf), or a filename in master_supporting_docs/.

Steps

  1. Locate and read the manuscript.
  2. Read the full paper end-to-end. For long PDFs, read in chunks.
  3. Evaluate across 6 dimensions: Argument Structure, Identification Strategy, Econometric Specification, Literature Positioning, Writing Quality, Presentation.
  4. Generate 3-5 "referee objections" -- the tough questions a top referee would ask.
  5. Produce the review report.
  6. Save to quality_reports/paper_review_[sanitized_name].md

Principles

  • Be constructive. Every criticism should come with a suggestion.
  • Be specific. Reference exact sections, equations, tables.
  • Think like a referee at a top-5 journal.
  • Distinguish fatal flaws from minor issues.
  • Acknowledge what's done well.
  • Do NOT fabricate details.
