## Description

Comprehensive manuscript review with three modes: single-pass (default), --adversarial critic-fixer loop, and --peer [journal] simulated peer-review pipeline (editor + 2 dispositioned referees + editorial decision, calibrated to a target journal). R&R continuation via --peer --r2/--r3; hostile-editor stress test via --peer --stress; reviewer-disposition variance reporting via --peer --variance N. Auto-invokes /review-r + /audit-reproducibility on referenced scripts unless --no-cross-artifact.

# Manuscript Review

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

> **Which review skill do I want?**
>
> - **`/review-paper`** (this skill), single comprehensive report, optional `--adversarial` critic-fixer loop, or `--peer <journal>` simulated peer-review pipeline. Best for **most drafts**.
> - **`/seven-pass-review`**, seven independent lenses in parallel (abstract, intro, methods, results, robustness, prose, citations) then synthesized. Heavier (7× token cost). Best for **submission-ready drafts** or **R&R stage** where you need maximum coverage.
> - **`/respond-to-referees`**, if you already have referee comments and need a response document, not another review.
> - **`/slide-excellence`**, for lecture slides, not papers.

**Input:** `$ARGUMENTS`, path to a paper (`.tex`, `.pdf`, or `.qmd`), or a filename in `master_supporting_docs/`. Optional flags:

- `--adversarial`, critic-fixer loop until dry (2 consecutive dry rounds; fallback cap 5).
- `--peer <JOURNAL>`, simulated peer review pipeline calibrated to `<JOURNAL>` (see `.claude/references/journal-profiles.md` for available short names).
- `--r2` / `--r3`, R&R continuation mode (requires `--peer`). Reloads prior round, classifies concerns Resolved / Partial / Not addressed.
- `--stress`, hostile-editor stress test (requires `--peer`). Forces SKEPTIC dispositions, doubles critical peeves.
- `--variance` (followed by integer **N**, default 3), reviewer-disposition variance mode (requires `--peer`). Runs **N** referees with **independently sampled** dispositions from the 6-way taxonomy. Editor aggregates into a **decision distribution**, not a point estimate. Mutually exclusive with `--stress` and `--r2`/`--r3`.
- `--no-novelty-check`, skip editor's WebSearch novelty probe (default is ON).
- `--no-cross-artifact`, skip auto-invocation of `/review-r` + `/audit-reproducibility` on referenced scripts.
