Review Paper

Produce a thorough referee-style review of an academic manuscript.

Steps

Identify the paper: Use $ARGUMENTS. Check master_supporting_docs/supporting_papers/ or the paper folder.
Evaluate across 6 dimensions (rate each 1-5):
- Argument Structure: Research question clarity, logical flow, evidence support, limitations acknowledged
- Identification Strategy: Causal claim credibility, identifying assumptions stated, threats discussed, robustness checks proposed
- Econometric Specification: Standard errors appropriate, functional form justified, sample selection discussed, multiple testing addressed, economic meaningfulness vs statistical significance
- Literature Positioning: Key citations present, accurate characterization, clear differentiation, missing citations identified
- Writing Quality: Clarity, tone, notation consistency, abstract quality, self-contained tables/figures
- Presentation: Table/figure design, notation consistency across sections, typos, paper length
Generate 3-5 likely referee objections with suggested responses.
Overall recommendation: Strong Accept / Accept / Revise & Resubmit / Reject.
Save report to quality_reports/paper_review_[sanitized_name].md.

Notes

Be constructive. Identify strengths alongside weaknesses.
Distinguish CRITICAL (math wrong) from MAJOR (missing discussion) from MINOR (could be clearer).
