Paper Writing Pipeline

Based on: wanshuiyin/Auto-claude-code-research-in-sleep Original License: MIT

Overview

This skill chains sub-skills into a single automated pipeline:

/paper-plan → /paper-figure → /paper-write → /paper-compile → /auto-paper-improvement-loop
  (outline)     (plots)        (LaTeX)        (build PDF)       (review & polish)

Constants

VENUE = ICLR — Target venue (ICLR, NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, ACL, AAAI, ACM, IEEE)
MAX_IMPROVEMENT_ROUNDS = 2 — Review→fix→recompile rounds
AUTO_PROCEED = true — Auto-continue between phases

Pipeline

Phase 1: Paper Plan

Create structural outline:

Parse narrative report for claims, evidence, figures
Build Claims-Evidence Matrix
Design section structure (5-8 sections)
Plan figure/table placement

Phase 2: Figure Generation

Generate data-driven plots and tables:

Read figure plan from outline
Generate matplotlib/seaborn plots
Generate LaTeX comparison tables

Phase 3: LaTeX Writing

Generate section-by-section LaTeX:

Write each section following the plan
Insert figure/table references
Build references.bib
De-AI polish

Phase 4: Compilation

Build the PDF:

latexmk -pdf with automatic multi-pass
Auto-fix common errors
Post-compilation checks

Phase 5: Auto Improvement Loop

Polish the paper (2 rounds):

Round 1: Review full paper → identify issues → implement fixes → recompile
Round 2: Re-review with context → identify remaining issues → fix → recompile

Key Rules

Don't skip phases. Each phase builds on the previous one.
Compilation must succeed before entering the improvement loop.
Preserve all PDFs. The user needs round0/round1/round2 for comparison.
Respect page limits. If the paper exceeds the venue limit, suggest specific cuts.

Typical Timeline

Phase	Duration
1. Paper Plan	5-10 min
2. Figures	5-15 min
3. LaTeX Writing	15-30 min
4. Compilation	2-5 min
5. Improvement	15-30 min

Total: ~45-90 min for a full paper from narrative report to polished PDF.
