Scaffold a Quarto analysis notebook (generic or method-specific — DiD, IV, RDD, LASSO, Panel FE), register it in _quarto.yml, apply publication-quality figure styling, and generate dataset codebooks. Use when starting a new analysis notebook.
Manage the project's literature workflow — ideate research questions, run structured literature reviews, add citations to references.bib, write annotation notes in references/, and audit citation integrity. Use for any bibliography or literature task.
Audit a Quarto manuscript or a single notebook — freeze freshness, data-path existence, citation integrity, figure/table export presence, placeholder and anonymization checks. Produces a scored review report under notes/. Read-only — never modifies notebooks, data, or the manuscript.
Build publication-quality regression and robustness tables from notebook estimation output, exported to tables/ as CSV + Markdown + LaTeX. Use when creating a results table.
Draft and revise manuscript prose for index.qmd — sections, the abstract, regression-result interpretation, and referee responses. Use when writing or revising the manuscript.
Reads the manuscript and notebooks to generate a structured abstract. Use when writing or updating the abstract.

Transfer prose changes made by collaborators in latex/index.tex (e.g., via Overleaf) back into index.qmd.
latex/.baseline.tex must exist (auto-created by bash scripts/render.sh)latex/index.tex must contain collaborator edits (pulled from Overleaf / GitHub)Read these three files:
latex/.baseline.tex — the LaTeX snapshot from the last render (before edits)latex/index.tex — the LaTeX after collaborator editsindex.qmd — the current QMD manuscript sourceCompare latex/.baseline.tex vs latex/index.tex to identify changes.
Focus on the document body only (everything between \begin{document} and \end{document}).
Ignore the preamble (lines before \begin{document}) — these are auto-generated by Quarto.
For each section (identified by \section{...}\label{...} and \subsection{...}\label{...} markers), check if the prose text changed between baseline and modified.
For each changed section, apply the edits to the corresponding section in index.qmd:
\textbf{...} → **...**\textit{...} or \emph{...} → *...*\href{url}{text} → [text](url)Section~\ref{sec-id} → @sec-idFigure~\ref{fig-id} → @fig-idTable~\ref{tbl-id} → @tbl-id\cite{key} or \citep{key} → [@key]\citet{key} → @key\footnote{...} → ^[...]{{< embed >}} shortcodes exactly as they are in the QMD.
Do NOT replace them with \includegraphics, \begin{figure}, \begin{longtable}, or any LaTeX equivalents.
These shortcodes pull live outputs from notebooks and must remain intact.\caption{...}), note the change in the summary report but do NOT modify the embed shortcodes — captions are defined in the notebook source cells.After applying all changes, show a summary:
Render the manuscript with bash scripts/render.sh to verify the round-trip is clean (no warnings, no errors).
latex/.baseline.tex does not exist, tell the user to run /project:render first.latex/.baseline.tex and latex/index.tex are identical, report "No changes detected" and stop.index.qmd, flag it and skip.
