Manuscript Ingest

Transforms a manuscript source file into the canonical text artifact used by paper-review.

Inputs

One manuscript source from the workspace, typically:

  • inputs/manuscript.md
  • inputs/manuscript.txt
  • inputs/manuscript.pdf

Output

  • output/PAPER.md

Script boundary

scripts/run.py should:

  • find the simplest available manuscript source
  • extract faithful text
  • write the full text to output/PAPER.md

It should not summarize, critique, or reformat the manuscript into a review.

Contract

The output must preserve:

  • paper body text
  • section headings when available
  • page markers when extractable

Acceptance

  • output/PAPER.md exists
  • it contains the manuscript body rather than only title/abstract

Non-goals

  • claim extraction
  • evidence auditing
  • review writing

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take willoscar/manuscript-ingest from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
