| description | Perform high-intensity global polishing for English academic papers in LaTeX. Use when the user wants section-level or document-level rewriting with global logic checking, outline reconstruction, compression, sentence-level polishing, and a final reviewer-style pass, or when the user explicitly asks for a staged structure-to-logic-to-expression English polish workflow with confirmation checkpoints. |
Paper Refine Special EN
Overview
Use this skill for heavy English academic rewriting when local paragraph polish is not enough. It is designed for section-level and document-level improvement, not only for isolated sentences.
Workflow
- Determine the scope of the input:
- Single paragraph
- Multi-paragraph subsection
- Full section
- Full paper
- Detect whether the user wants:
- Direct heavy rewrite
- Staged confirmation workflow with structure -> sentence logic -> expression
- Read
references/core-workflow.md and follow the five-phase pipeline exactly.
- Read
references/global-logic-check.md to evaluate paragraph roles, section progression, and document-level evidence chains.
- If the content contains experiments, ablations, efficiency studies, or case analysis, also read
references/experiment-structure.md and enforce that structure in the final text.
- Read
references/output-format.md to choose the correct output shape for paragraph, section, or document inputs.
Staged Workflow Mode
If the user explicitly asks for incremental confirmation, do not jump straight to a full rewrite.
- Confirm macro structure first.
- Map sentence or paragraph roles before editing wording.
- Offer 2-4 English expression options for a small batch of sentences when useful.
- After the logic is confirmed, produce the rewritten passage.
- If the user also names a target journal or asks for highlights, use
paper-journal-style for the journal-specific layer.
Scope Rules
- This skill is stronger than
paper-refine and should be used only when the user wants global restructuring and high-intensity polishing.
- Keep LaTeX commands, formulas, citations, labels, and escaped characters intact unless a change is necessary for correctness.
- For multi-paragraph and longer inputs, do not patch sentence by sentence from the original order. Rebuild the outline first, then rewrite from that outline.
- In staged workflow mode, keep each checkpoint compact and wait for confirmation before moving from structure to wording when the user asked for that interaction pattern.
Boundary With Other Skills
- Use
paper-refine for light paragraph-level editing.
- Use this skill for section-level or paper-level global improvement.
- Use
paper-review for standalone reviewer reports or PDF-focused evaluation rather than final rewritten prose.
