write-scientific-manuscript
Diagnose and repair the clarity and logic of manuscript prose, journal-agnostic. Use when a passage is technically correct but hard to follow: buried topic sentences, missing logical bridges, ambiguous referents, abstract noun chains, overloaded sentences, incomplete comparisons with no stated dataset or metric or direction, scope qualifiers placed too far from the claim, and invented or inflated terminology that should have been an ordinary word. Also covers writing for a broad scientific reader without losing precision, section-by-section logic patterns, paragraph-level reverse outlines, and keeping observation separate from interpretation. This is the layer between structure and punctuation: use manuscript-optimizer when the claim hierarchy itself is unstable, and scientific-prose-style for the final sentence-level pass.
