## Description

Draft, audit, or revise responses to peer review, revision cover letters, and marked-manuscript or LaTeX revision packages. Use for 审稿意见回复、逐点回复、返修信、 rebuttals and edits to existing response drafts. Initial-submission materials belong to nature-writing; simulated peer review belongs to nature-reviewer.

## Routing protocol

For a new task, load the core and matching resources below. Reuse already loaded guidance on follow-ups; load more only when the task needs it.

### 1. Load the manifest and the core layer

Read [manifest.yaml](manifest.yaml). Then read every file listed under `always_load`:

- `static/core/stance.md`, the editor-facing purpose, the default stance, the red lines, and the source hierarchy that apply to every response job.
- `static/core/workflow.md`, accepted inputs, the revision correspondence workflow, and the output package format.

### 2. No content axis, identify mode and language inline

Unlike nature-writing or nature-figure, nature-response has no fragment axis. Its variation is identified at runtime, not by loading different content bodies:

- **task mode**, `draft` / `audit` / `revise` / `triage-only` / `cover-letter` / `revision-package` / `latex-template` / `appeal-like`.
- **decision type**, minor revision, major revision, revise-and-resubmit, transfer after review, or unclear.
- **user language**, if the user writes Chinese, also produce the 中文核对 block.

Decision type is required for a new package-level revision strategy or complete response package.
First extract it from the editor letter or task context. If it remains unclear, ask whether this
is a `Major Revision` or `Minor Revision` and pause only decision-dependent work. A local wording
edit, audit of an existing reply, or comment-level triage may proceed with decision type marked
unknown. Do not infer the decision from the number, tone, or difficulty of reviewer comments.

Use `references/intake-and-routing.md` to fix the task mode, minimum inputs, and readiness state before drafting. Route appeal-like cases separately; do not draft an appeal as the default path.
