TL;DR

This skill guides authors through the revision of ML/CV/NLP research papers, focusing on section structure, paragraph flow, and claim-evidence alignment. It provides section-specific guidance, a paragraph clarity check, and an adversarial review process to surface weak arguments before submission. Useful for academic researchers and conference authors who want to strengthen their manuscripts.
