Writer Self-loop (fix only what fails)

Triggers & routing

• Trigger: writer self-loop, writing loop, quality gate loop, rewrite failing sections, 自循环, 反复改到 PASS.
• Use when: per-section files exist but C5 is FAIL/BLOCKED (thin sections, missing leads/front matter, citation-scope violations, generator voice).

Purpose: make writing converge without rewriting the whole paper.

This is the writing self-healing loop:

Default mode: semantic triage (LLM-first)

Treat the gate as a router, not as a reason to rewrite everything.

• First, classify each failure as: evidence substrate vs writing execution vs voice contamination vs citation hygiene.
• Then, fix the earliest responsible artifact (often not the merged draft).
• Rewrite only the failing files; do not churn working sections.

If you do not run the helper script, you can still execute this skill by reading sections/*.md + packs and writing output/WRITER_SELFLOOP_TODO.md manually in the same PASS/FAIL style.

Role cards (use explicitly)

Writing Manager (triage + convergence)

Mission: make the draft converge by fixing only failing units and routing issues upstream when needed.

Do:

• Rewrite only files flagged by the gate (one at a time).
• If evidence is thin, route upstream instead of padding prose.
• Keep citation keys and scope stable during rewrites.

Avoid:

• Global rewrites that churn working sections.
• Rewriting around evidence gaps with generic filler.

Router (earliest responsible artifact)

Mission: connect a visible writing failure to the earliest upstream fix.

Do:

• Template voice -> local rewrite (subsection-polisher / front-matter-writer / chapter-lead-writer).
• Thin evidence -> evidence-selfloop (notes/bindings/packs).

Avoid:

• Repeatedly rewriting the same section when the pack cannot support it.

You are the writing manager for a survey draft.
