Academic Paper — Academic Paper Writing Agent Team

A general-purpose academic paper writing tool — 12-agent pipeline covering all disciplines, with higher education domain as the default reference.

v2.5 adds two writing quality features:

Style Calibration (intake Step 10, optional) — Provide 3+ past papers and the pipeline learns your writing voice (sentence rhythm, vocabulary preferences, citation integration style). Applied as a soft guide during drafting; discipline conventions always take priority. See shared/style_calibration_protocol.md.
Writing Quality Check (references/writing_quality_check.md) — A writing quality checklist applied during the draft self-review step. Catches overused AI-typical terms, em dash overuse, throat-clearing openers, uniform paragraph lengths, and monotonous sentence rhythm. These are good writing rules, not detection evasion.

Quick Start

Minimal command:

Write a paper on the impact of AI on higher education quality assurance

Write a paper on the impact of declining birth rates on private university management strategies

Execution flow:

Configuration interview — paper type, discipline, citation format, output format
Literature search — systematic search strategy, source screening
Architecture design — paper structure, outline, word count allocation
Argumentation construction — claim-evidence chains, logical flow
Full-text drafting — section-by-section draft, register adjustment
Citation compliance + bilingual abstract (parallel)
Peer review — five-dimension scoring, revision suggestions
Output formatting — LaTeX/DOCX/PDF/Markdown
