Drafts and revises academic papers through a 12-agent pipeline with hardened LaTeX output (apa7 class, PDF compiled from LaTeX), supporting IMRaD, literature review, theoretical, case study, policy brief, and conference paper structures, APA 7.0 (default), Chicago, MLA, IEEE, and Vancouver citation formats, bilingual abstracts (English plus the author's language, e.g. Turkish or Traditional Chinese), and multi-format output (LaTeX, DOCX, PDF, Markdown). Use when the request mentions write paper, academic paper, paper outline, write abstract, revise paper, check citations, convert to LaTeX, guide my paper, parse reviews, revision roadmap, or makale yaz, akademik makale, özet yaz, makaleyi revize et, hakem yorumları, or 寫論文, 學術論文, 論文大綱, 寫摘要, 修改論文, 檢查引用, 引導我寫論文, 審查意見, 修訂路線圖. Its citation-check mode formats and inserts citations while drafting; for a standalone anti-hallucination check that cited references actually exist prefer alterlab-citation-verifier instead.

- alterlab-scientific-writingAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsWrites scientific manuscripts in full flowing paragraphs (never bullet points) via a two-stage process — section outlines with key points using alterlab-research-lookup, then conversion to prose — applying IMRAD structure, citations (APA/AMA/Vancouver), figures/tables, and current reporting guidelines (CONSORT 2025, STROBE, PRISMA 2020, TRIPOD+AI). Use when drafting or revising a research paper section by section (abstract, introduction, methods, results, discussion), tightening scientific prose, or writing professional/technical reports. For the end-to-end multi-agent paper pipeline (APA 7 LaTeX/DOCX output, bilingual abstracts, reviewer-driven revision roadmap) use alterlab-paper-writer; for a specific venue's LaTeX template and house style use alterlab-venue-templates; to build a BibTeX bibliography use alterlab-citation-mgmt.
