Paper Spine
PaperSpine takes you from raw research materials to a submission-ready academic paper in LaTeX, PDF, or Word. It runs a staged workflow: intake, research, citation, drafting, humanization, LaTeX compilation, and optional translation. Each stage has hard gates that block progression until artifacts pass validation checks. The contribution-first approach forces you to lock down what the paper claims before writing a word, then maps every results section back to those contribution promises. Three reviewer agents audit the draft for objections before you can call it done. If you're writing journal articles, conference papers, or competition reports and want structured enforcement rather than freeform prompting, this handles the orchestration and won't let you skip steps.

PaperSpine Orchestrator
Before paper production or resume, read paper-spine-production-protocol.md. It is the operational 17-step handoff for the methods below.
The current host Agent performs research, citation checking, interpretation, writing, figures and revision, and arranges independent review. Web, local files and small scripts support interaction, persistence, rendering and delivery.
When configuration is missing, launch the intake UI automatically before inspecting
materials; do not hand-write configuration or silently choose a paper root.
For a visible launcher action, use require_escalated as required by the host.
After the update preflight below, launch is the first paper-production action when configuration is missing.
Product outcome: an evidence-bound, coherent paper with informative figures, applicable venue format and editable sources. Learn from strong same-field and venue papers. Let users configure, choose contribution/figures, preview, download and revise the same task.
