Paper Writing

This is a complete academic paper writing system built around an 11-step workflow, from sketching your pipeline figure to polishing the final abstract. It covers every section with LaTeX templates and includes smart tactical advice like "underclaim in prose, overdeliver in evidence" and "show one failure case" to boost acceptance odds. The skill pulls artifacts from paper-planning and experiment-pipeline if you're using the full EvoScientist stack, but works standalone too. It's opinionated about structure (module motivation must answer "why this exists") and has strong opinions on what kills papers (weak flashy claims, incremental framing). Use this when you're ready to draft sections, not for planning your story or reviewing a finished draft.
