Draft Author Responses

Run from the repo root. Requires severity-voted issues from Phase 4. The paper source is in this same repo.

Find issues to respond to

Scan for directories that have issue.json, investigation.json (confirmed), and votes.json but do NOT yet have response.json. Use .review/dedup.json to process only canonical issues. Skip issues whose votes.json has "consensus": "not_an_issue".

For each confirmed issue

Read issue.json, investigation.json, and votes.json. Then, with full access to the repo, draft response options from the author's perspective:

1. Can the reviewer be wrong?

• Re-read the flagged text and surrounding context
• Check if the reviewer misunderstood the argument or missed context
• If wrong, draft a rebuttal with specific references

2. Is there a quick fix?

• A sentence or two added to the manuscript
• A clarifying footnote or table note
