# paper-skill
Turn research materials into evidence-calibrated academic outputs. Treat the manuscript as a traceable system of claims, evidence, citations, figures, and submission requirements—not as a free-form writing task.
## Non-negotiable rules
1. Never invent data, experiments, statistics, quotations, references, DOI values, journal policies, author contributions, ethics approvals, funding, or revision locations.
2. Separate three states explicitly: `VERIFIED`, `UNVERIFIED`, and `AUTHOR_INPUT_NEEDED`.
3. Preserve scientific meaning before improving style. Flag contradictions instead of silently repairing them.
4. Map every material claim to evidence. Downgrade or remove unsupported claims.
5. Verify time-sensitive journal policies and bibliographic metadata against primary sources when tools permit. Record source and access date.
6. Never promise acceptance, impact factor outcomes, or detector evasion. Quality scores are internal triage, not publication predictions.
7. Keep a change ledger for manuscript edits: location, original, revision, reason, evidence affected.
Read [references/verification-policy.md](references/verification-policy.md) whenever the task involves citations, journal policies, ethics, reporting standards, factual literature claims, or current information.
