## Purpose

Plan paper structure and generate LaTeX sections following IMRAD structure. This skill covers both outlining (Claims-Evidence Matrix, section planning) and section-by-section drafting.

## Workflow

### Phase 0: Paper Planning

Before writing, create the structural outline. If `paper/paper-plan.md` does not exist, create it.

1. **Parse research narrative** from experiment evidence package and prior phase deliverables
2. **Build Claims-Evidence Matrix** -- map each claim to its supporting evidence
3. **Design section structure** (5-8 sections following IMRAD)
4. **Plan figure/table placement** -- assign figures and tables to sections
5. **Scaffold citation structure** -- identify where key citations belong

Save to `paper/paper-plan.md`:
- Title proposal
- Section plan with key points per section
- Claims-Evidence Matrix
- Figure/table placement plan
- Citation scaffolding

### Phase 1: Preparation

1. **Read paper plan** from `paper/paper-plan.md`
2. **Review evidence package** from `docs/experiments/evidence-package-index.md`
3. **Check citation library** from `paper/references.bib`
4. **Review figures and tables** from `paper/figures/` and `paper/tables/`

### Phase 2: Section-by-Section Writing

Follow IMRAD structure. See `references/imrad_structure.md` for detailed section guidelines.

### Phase 3: LaTeX Compilation and Polish

1. **Clean stale files**: Remove old .aux, .log, .bbl files
2. **Compile**: pdflatex/bibtex cycle (3x for references)
3. **De-AI Polish**: Remove AI-typical phrases:
   - "delve", "pivotal", "crucial", "paramount"
   - "It is worth noting that..."
   - "In order to..." (use "to...")
4. **Check venue compliance**: Format, length, required sections

## LaTeX Templates

### Main Document Structure

```latex
\documentclass{article}  % or venue-specific class
\input{math_commands.tex}

\title{...}
\author{...}

\begin{document}
\maketitle
\begin{abstract} ... \end{abstract}

\input{sections/introduction}
\input{sections/related_work}
\input{sections/method}
\input{sections/experiments}
\input{sections/conclusion}

\bibliographystyle{plain}  % venue-specific
\bibliography{references}
\end{document}
```

### Algorithm Environment

```latex
\usepackage{algorithm}
\usepackage{algorithmic}

\begin{algorithm}[t]
\caption{Algorithm Name}
\label{alg:name}
\begin{algorithmic}[1]
\REQUIRE Input description
\ENSURE Output description
\STATE Step 1
\FOR{$i = 1$ to $N$}
  \STATE Step in loop
\ENDFOR
\RETURN result
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}
```

### Results Table

```latex
\begin{table}[t]
\centering
\caption{Main results. Best in \textbf{bold}. $\uparrow$ = higher is better.}
\label{tab:main}
\begin{tabular}{lcc}
\toprule
Method & Metric 1 $\uparrow$ & Metric 2 $\uparrow$ \\
\midrule
Baseline A & 85.2 $\pm$ 0.3 & 72.1 $\pm$ 0.5 \\
Baseline B & 87.4 $\pm$ 0.4 & 74.3 $\pm$ 0.6 \\
\textbf{Ours} & \textbf{92.3 $\pm$ 0.4} & \textbf{78.9 $\pm$ 0.3} \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
```

### Figure Environment

```latex
\begin{figure}[t]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{figures/figure_name.pdf}
\caption{Self-contained caption describing the figure.}
\label{fig:name}
\end{figure}
```
