Summary

Introduces a comprehensive Paper Writing Plugin that guides researchers through a structured 6-phase workflow to develop academic ideas into rigorous, well-argued paper content. The plugin includes a main command, three specialized agents, and detailed documentation.

Key Changes

  • Main Command (paper-writing.md): Implements a 6-phase guided workflow:

    • Phase 1: Idea Understanding - clarifies core thesis and context
    • Phase 2: Research Landscape Analysis - maps scholarly terrain via parallel agents
    • Phase 3: Argument Development - constructs multi-layered arguments via parallel agents
    • Phase 4: Detailed Discussion Writing - develops arguments into academic prose
    • Phase 5: Logic & Quality Review - validates reasoning via parallel agents
    • Phase 6: Final Output - delivers polished thesis, outline, discussion text, and citations
  • Specialized Agents:

    • argument-builder: Develops structured arguments using Toulmin model, constructs logical reasoning chains, identifies evidence patterns, and anticipates counterarguments with rebuttals
    • literature-analyzer: Maps research landscape by identifying theoretical frameworks, key debates, research gaps, and positioning strategies
    • logic-reviewer: Reviews arguments for logical validity, detects fallacies, checks consistency, and evaluates evidence sufficiency
  • Documentation:

    • Plugin README with overview, usage tips, and agent descriptions
    • Bilingual support (English and Korean) in command implementation
    • Detailed agent specifications with output formats and core processes

Notable Implementation Details

  • Uses parallel agent execution (2-3 agents per phase) to accelerate analysis and argument development
  • Implements Toulmin's argumentation framework for rigorous logical structure
  • Includes interactive user engagement via AskUserQuestion at each phase for iterative refinement
  • Provides concrete output formats with specific sections (thesis statement, argument structure, counterarguments, evidence suggestions)
  • Emphasizes academic rigor while preserving user's intellectual direction
  • Tracks progress throughout using TodoWrite

Introduces a 6-phase workflow that helps researchers transform raw ideas
into structured academic arguments with detailed discussion. Includes
three specialized agents: argument-builder, literature-analyzer, and
logic-reviewer.

https://claude.ai/code/session_01GVp3Q8MpjYTGFqzCxeZiMU
- Register paper-writing as a slash command in .claude/commands/
  so it's accessible via `/paper-writing <idea>`
- Add allowed-tools configuration for the command
- Add Korean/English bilingual support to all agents
- Upgrade argument-builder to use Toulmin argumentation model
  with structured output format
- Add language-matching instruction to all agent prompts

Complete 6-phase paper writing assistant output for the thesis:
"Wagner's Leitmotif system is better explained by Deleuzian
'logic of semiotic encounter' than by Hegelian dialectics."

Includes: thesis statement, argument outline, detailed discussion
text (6 sections), key definitions, counterarguments/rebuttals,
logic review findings, citation suggestions, and remaining tasks.
