Purpose

Take all previous outputs (ideation, planning, experiment results) and produce a complete LaTeX paper draft with figures, tables, and bibliography.

Tools Required

• generate_latex: Generate and assemble LaTeX source files for each paper section
• compile_pdf: Compile the LaTeX source into a PDF document
• generate_figure: Produce publication-quality figures from experiment results

Input

• ideation_output: Path to papers/ideation_output.json from the ideation skill
• experiment_blueprint: Path to papers/experiment_blueprint.json from the planning skill
• experiment_results: Path to experiments/ directory containing code and results from the experiment skill

Process

• Parse all upstream outputs to gather hypotheses, literature, experiment design, and results
• Generate the paper outline following a standard structure (Abstract, Introduction, Related Work, Method, Experiments, Conclusion)
• Draft the Abstract summarizing the problem, approach, and key findings
• Draft the Introduction motivating the research question and stating contributions
• Draft Related Work synthesizing the surveyed literature from the ideation stage
• Draft the Method section describing the proposed approach in detail
• Draft the Experiments section with dataset descriptions, baseline comparisons, and ablation results
• Generate figures (performance plots, ablation charts, architecture diagrams) using generate_figure
• Generate tables summarizing quantitative results

10. Draft the Conclusion with a summary of findings and future work directions

11. Compile the bibliography from all cited papers

12. Assemble the full LaTeX document using generate_latex

13. Compile to PDF using compile_pdf and verify the output

Output

Produces papers/draft/ directory containing:

• main.tex: Complete LaTeX source of the paper
• references.bib: Bibliography file with all citations
• figures/: Generated figures in PDF or PNG format
• tables/: LaTeX table source files
• main.pdf: Compiled PDF of the paper draft
