academic-paper — Claude Code skill: what it does, how to install
This skill runs a 12-agent academic pipeline across 11 modes. It guides projects from literature searches and outlines to citation audits and rebuttal reviews.

The skill organizes paper production into structured phases. An initial interview captures paper type, discipline, citation format, and output target. Next, agents build the architecture, draft sections, and verify citations. It includes 11 operating modes, such as literature reviews, abstract generation, citation checks, and reviewer rebuttal audits.
Author voice calibration is available during setup. If you provide 3 or more past papers, the pipeline adapts to your sentence rhythm and referencing habits. For DOCX generation, Pandoc is required on the system, making plain Word exports fail if it is absent. Final outputs can be rendered to LaTeX, DOCX, or PDF.
When you pass inputs spanning multiple phases at once, the skill pauses to clarify your intent rather than guessing a single step. You can bypass this routing interview by starting your prompt with the [direct-mode] token.
