# Paper Language Pass
## When to use
The user has a complete academic manuscript whose **science is already validated** (peer review done, reviewers' substantive concerns addressed) and wants a **language-layer polish across the entire paper**. Seven specialist subagents run in parallel, each scanning the whole paper for a single dimension of writing quality:
| Pass | Subagent | Looks for |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Consistency auditor | Term/acronym/capitalization/number/unit/hyphenation consistency |
| 2 | Tense auditor | Section-appropriate tense, within-section consistency, et al. agreement |
| 3 | Hedging auditor | Claim-strength calibration, overclaiming, under-hedging, abstract-body alignment |
| 4 | Prose polisher (review only) | Grammar, nominalization, fillers, awkward phrasing, AI tells |
| 5 | Coherence reviewer | Paragraph claim-first, transitions, argument chaining, repetition |
| 6 | Abstract auditor | WHY→PROBLEM→HOW→RESULTS structure, acronyms, no citations, single paragraph |
| 7 | Manuscript hygiene auditor | Three classes of phrasing that leak from adjacent genres into the manuscript body and never belong there: (A) reviewer / editor process meta-discourse, (B) journal self-reference / sycophancy, (C) implementation / engineering-detail leakage including untaken fallback paths |
This skill is **not** for: initial drafting, content review, scientific critique, figure/table data verification, statistics. Those are upstream concerns. It is also not for Chinese-
