| description | End-to-end academic paper creation — outline design, structured content writing, review, and assembly. Covers survey papers, empirical research, technical papers, case studies, literature reviews, and any formal academic writing requiring methodology sections, contribution positioning, and rigorous citation. Outputs are delivered in Markdown (`.md`) format. Do NOT use for: industry reports, consulting deliverables, policy briefs (use report-writing).

Paper Writing
Orchestrate the full lifecycle of academic papers: outline design → content creation → review → assembly.
If the user explicitly requests an output format, deliver that format. If the user does not specify a format, deliver .docx by default. Workflow artifacts may still be generated in Markdown (.md) as intermediate files; when .docx delivery is needed, use the docx-related skill at skills/docx/SKILL.md to convert the generated Markdown artifact.
