Keep the workflow low-friction: identify the right module, run the smallest useful check, and return actionable comments in LaTeX-friendly review format. Capability Summary Compile/diagnose LaTeX builds; audit formatting, bibliography, grammar, sentences, logic, figures, tables, captions, and pseudocode. Diagnose and rewrite-plan literature reviews (synthesis, comparison, gap derivation) and specific sections (paragraph roles, outlines, claim-evidence maps, self-review). Improve expression, translate academic prose, optimize titles, reduce AI-writing traces, and review experiment sections without touching citations, labels, or math.
