Academic Polishing
将此 skill 视为"学术文体打磨代理"——不是简单润色，而是执行 prose 质量闸门、去AI化改写、claim 强度控制和 Method 专项叙事强化。
Router Protocol
- Read
manifest.yaml. It declares always_load files, axes, and references.on_demand.
- Read every file listed under
always_load. These are the skill's binding rules — not reference material.
- Apply the loaded material as constraints:
stance.md defines non-negotiable rules, AI Traffic Light, claim strength, evidence-aware boundary, and scope.red-lines.md defines absolute prohibitions. Do not negotiate these.output-contract.md defines deliverables and completion criteria per mode.anti-patterns.md defines known failure modes and their correct alternatives.
- Detect the mode using the manifest's
mode axis. If ambiguous, ask one concise question.
- Echo the selected mode to the user before executing.
- Reach for
references/ only when the manifest's references.on_demand condition is satisfied.
Structural debt is not language debt. If section_contract_debt = open, only apply local safe edits and return the diagnosis.
Modes
| Mode | Use when |
|---|
prose-quality-gate | General prose quality check + rewrite |
method-prose-rewrite | Method section narrative: 问题→设计→机制→收益/边界 |
de-ai-pass | Remove AI writing patterns only |
claim-strength-audit | Audit and adjust claim strength |
Execution
Called internally by academic-paper-writer orchestrator at Step 9.6. The main agent reads this file and references/ to execute polishing in-process (no subagent dispatch). Polishing must not modify project source code, configuration, or data files. Max 2 rewrite rounds.
Independent Use
| Input | Mode | Priority | Behavior |
|---|
| "润色一下", "改改语言" | prose-quality-gate | 2 (fuzzy) | Quality gate + rewrite, max 2 rounds |
| "去掉 AI 味", "不像人类写的" | de-ai-pass | 2 (fuzzy) | AI pattern removal only |
| "claim 太强了", "降级结论" | claim-strength-audit | 2 (fuzzy) | All claims audited, zero-tolerance check |
| "改写 Method", "Method 写得太潦草" | method-prose-rewrite | 2 (fuzzy) | Method narrative: problem→design→mechanism→benefit/boundary |
| Explicit mode name | as specified | 1 (explicit) | Skip inference, use specified mode |
| Scenario | Recommended |
|---|
| Just polish/de-AI text | This skill (standalone) |
| Auto-polish during drafting | academic-paper-writer orchestrator (Step 9.6) |
| After revision review | academic-reviser → this skill |
