## Description

This skill should be used when the user asks to "review paper quality", "check paper completeness", "validate paper structure", "self-review before submission", "audit claims", "check overclaiming", "verify whether results support claims", or mentions systematic paper quality checking. Provides comprehensive quality assurance checklist for academic papers.

# Paper Self-Review

A systematic paper quality checking tool that helps researchers conduct comprehensive self-review before submission.

## Core Features

### 1. Structure Review

Check whether all sections of the paper are complete and conform to academic standards:
- Does the Abstract include problem, method, results, and contributions?
- Does the Introduction clearly articulate research motivation and background?
- Is the Method detailed enough to be reproducible?
- Do the Results sufficiently support the conclusions?
- Does the Discussion address limitations and future work?

### 2. Logic Consistency Check

Verify the logical coherence of the paper:
- Do research questions match the methodology?
- Does the experimental design support the research hypotheses?
- Are result interpretations reasonable?
- Are conclusions supported by evidence?

### 3. Citation Completeness

Check the completeness and accuracy of citations:
- Are all citations present in the references?
- Is the reference format consistent?
- Are key related works cited?
- Do citations accurately reflect the original content?

### 4. Research Claim Audit

Check whether the paper's claims are supported by the available evidence:
- Are the main claims supported by results, citations, or analysis artifacts?
- Are speculative observations clearly marked as tentative?
- Does the paper avoid stronger wording than the evidence allows?
- Are negative results, limitations, and missing baselines presented honestly?
- Do conclusions stay inside the tested scope?

This audit does not replace `results-analysis` for statistics or `citation-verification` for bibliographic verification. It checks whether paper claims correctly use the available evidence.
