paper-writer

combined

Drafts publishable paper prose from the author's own materials, from a single paragraph to a full manuscript, across STEM and non-STEM fields. Every factual claim traces to user input, verified retrieval, or field common knowledge; citations pass an independent verification ladder; delivery is clean prose with zero placeholder tags. Use when the user asks to write a section, turn an idea or results into paper text, or draft a full paper. Automatically write empirical sections of academic papers in LaTeX by reading tables/figures from a PDF. Trigger when user wants to write a paper from empirical results, has tables/figures in PDF, or says "write paper" / "paper-writer" / "写论文".

When to use

• "Write this idea into an English introduction paragraph."
• "Draft the Discussion in the style of a specific venue."
• "Write a full first draft of the paper."
• "Turn these notes into a Methods section."
• "Produce an abstract."

When not to use

• The user wants an Introduction specifically: `intro-drafter` owns that
• The paper is a benchmark paper still being planned: `benchmark-paper-template`
• Existing prose needs language polishing: `paper-polish`.
• The logic skeleton is not settled: `tech-paper-template` first.
• The idea itself is unvetted: `idea-evaluator`.

Conflict

The two skills share the name 'paper-writer' but define fundamentally different procedures. The HKUSTDial skill is a general-purpose, evidence-discipline-focused prose generator that operates on user materials and verified retrieval, explicitly avoiding LaTeX and specific empirical workflows. The brycewang-stanford skill is a specialized, LaTeX-focused workflow for empirical finance/economics papers that requires a PDF input, reads tables/figures, and follows a specific 'write results first' assembly order. They do not reproduce or shorten each other; they are distinct tools for different stages and types of academic writing.
