What kind of 'leaks' does the skill detect?

It scans for technical placeholders like ellipses, TODO markers, scaffold tags, and 'planner talk' that often stay behind during the writing process.

Can it help improve the tone of my research paper?

Yes, it flags 'narration templates' and 'slide navigation' phrases (e.g., 'In this section we will...') that detract from a formal academic voice.

What happens if the citation health check fails?

The report will identify undefined bibkeys or duplicate citations, suggesting you run citation-verifier to sync your bibliography.

Does the Pipeline Auditor automatically change my text?

No, this skill is analysis-only. It generates a detailed AUDIT_REPORT.md that identifies issues for you to fix, ensuring total control over the final content.

When is the best time to trigger the auditor?

It is best used when your DRAFT.md is generated and you are ready for a final regression test before formatting for submission.

Security & Testing

Performs deterministic regression checks on research drafts to ensure citation health, structural alignment, and stylistic quality.

The Pipeline Auditor acts as a specialized quality assurance tool for the final stages of research and survey writing pipelines. It provides a deterministic PASS/FAIL report by analyzing draft documents for critical flaws such as leaked placeholders, 'generator voice' navigation patterns, and citation scope drift. By verifying that the content aligns with the original outline and adheres to strict evidence policies, this skill ensures that technical documents maintain a professional, evidence-first tone and are free from structural artifacts before moving to final publication formats like LaTeX or PDF.
