What it does
Use when a manuscript is close to submission or resubmission and you need a preflight audit for claim support, figure-panel coverage, legend sync, methods references, terminology stability, and venue-facing risks.
Submission Audit
Overview
Use this skill for late-stage manuscript QA. It is narrower than manuscript-optimizer: do not use it to redesign a paper from scratch. Use it when the structure mostly exists and the main task is to catch the failures that survive normal revision cycles.
The core rule is simple: never treat a clean-looking manuscript as submission-ready until the front half, figures, legends, methods, supplement, and venue expectations have been checked against each other.
Use the helper script when you want a fast local pass over figure citations:
python ~/.agents/skills/submission-audit/scripts/check_figure_refs.py path/to/manuscript.md
# Claude Code (global install): replace ~/.agents/skills with ~/.claude/skills
# Claude Code (project-local install): replace ~/.agents/skills with .claude/skills
When To Use
Use this skill when:
- The draft is near submission, resubmission, or internal circulation
- Figures and legends are mostly finalized
- The paper needs a last pass for overclaim, missing references, or cross-section drift
- A revision round compressed the prose and may have dropped supporting detail
- The supplement exists and may no longer match the main text
Do not use this skill for:
- Early brainstorming
- Initial section drafting
- Citation discovery from scratch
- Heavy structural rewrites that belong in
manuscript-optimizer
