## Description

Review and revise academic papers with a senior-reviewer workflow. Use when an AI research/coding agent needs to work on an existing paper draft, PDF, LaTeX project, Word document, markdown manuscript, rejected paper, or paper idea that already has a concrete direction, and produce: paper maps, weakness audits, insight/novelty checks, reviewer objections, claim-experiment matrices, theory/proof checks, experiment plans, statistics/reproducibility audits, figure/table audits, ethics/compliance checks, revision plans, detailed section edits, or final submission checklists.

# Review Revision

## Overview

Use this skill as a review-and-revision workflow for an existing manuscript, rejected paper, review package, or idea with a concrete direction. Treat the paper as a research system: problem, insight, novelty, idea, method, experiments, writing, and final readiness. The goal is not to summarize what the paper says, but to judge what it actually proves, what reviewers will doubt, and what concrete edits or experiments can fix it.

For the detailed review/revision framework, read `references/review_revision_skill.md` whenever the task asks for deep critique, revision planning, experiment design, detailed editing, or final checklist work.

## Operating Modes

Choose the smallest mode that satisfies the user request.

1. **Paper整理**: extract the paper map, core claim, contribution type, method logic, experiment logic, and closest related work.
2. **论文拆解**: rebuild the author’s intended reasoning chain from problem to evidence; identify where the chain breaks.
3. **深刻反思**: evaluate insight, novelty, claim scope, mechanism, theory assumptions, statistical rigor, alternative explanations, experiment sufficiency, and likely reviewer objections.
4. **修改规划**: produce a prioritized plan with issue, why it matters, exact fix, target section, and required evidence or edits.
5. **细致修改**: rewrite or patch the manuscript section by section while preserving the author’s real contribution and avoiding unsupported claims.
6. **最终 checklist**: produce a submission-readiness checklist covering problem, novelty, method, theory, experiments, statistics/reproducibility, figures/tables, writing, naming/positioning, ethics/compliance, and reviewer-risk items.

## Core Workflow
