What it does

Systematic strategic planning framework for philosophy and interdisciplinary academic papers targeting preprint platforms (PhilArchive, arXiv, PhilSci-Archive). Use when users want to: (1) plan a paper on a specific topic, (2) identify research gaps and assess originality, (3) develop optimized paper outlines, (4) prepare for preprint submission, or (5) understand platform requirements and writing standards. Triggered by phrases like 'plan a paper on,' 'help me design a paper about,' 'identify research gaps in,' 'is this idea original,' or when users need structured research planning. The skill guides through three phases: Platform Analysis (identifying target venue and studying sample papers), Theoretical Framework (AI-driven literature search and gap identification), and Outline Optimization (structured design with reviewer-perspective self-assessment). Each phase includes quality evaluation standards and validation checkpoints. Output: optimized detailed outline ready for systematic writing (use with academic-paper-composer skill).

Academic Paper Strategist

Overview

This skill provides a systematic framework for strategic planning of academic papers in philosophy and interdisciplinary research. It guides you through three phases, from platform selection to optimized outline, with AI-driven literature search, research gap identification, originality assessment, and quality-controlled outline design.

Output: A detailed, review-ready paper outline with supporting documentation (platform style guide, literature review, gap analysis, reviewer assessment).

Companion Skill: Use academic-paper-composer to execute the outline and write the full paper.


When to Use This Skill

Use academic-paper-strategist when you need to:

Planning Stage:

  • Design a research paper from initial idea to structured outline
  • Identify a suitable publication platform (PhilArchive, arXiv, etc.)
  • Understand writing standards for a specific preprint platform

Research Stage:

  • Conduct systematic literature search
  • Identify research gaps with evidence
  • Assess originality of your research idea
  • Predict potential impact

Design Stage:

  • Structure paper chapters and arguments
  • Optimize outline from reviewer perspective
  • Prepare submission-ready strategy

Triggers:

  • "Plan a paper on [topic]"
  • "Help me design a paper about [subject]"
  • "Identify research gaps in [field]"
  • "Is this idea original?"
  • "What platform should I submit to?"

Workflow Overview

Phase 1: PLATFORM ANALYSIS (Target Selection + Style Learning)
    ↓
Phase 2: THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK (AI-Driven Gap Identification)
    ↓
Phase 3: OUTLINE OPTIMIZATION (Quality-Controlled Design)
    ↓
Output: Detailed Outline + Supporting Documentation

Quality Gates: 3 validation checkpoints ensure each phase meets standards before proceeding.
