What Scientific Writer Loop does

Scientific Writer Loop revises an existing scientific draft with its data, figures, and optional code until it meets a quality threshold. It uses specialist judges plus an independent peer reviewer to critique, grade, and regenerate prose, figures, and code.

Scientific Writer Loop is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Scientific Writer Loop comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, agentic-loops, agentic-workflows, ai-agents and anthropic.

Excerpt

Scientific Writer Loop

The artifact is a piece of scientific writing (draft + its dataset + figures + optional code). Each iteration critiques → grades → revises: five specialist judges produce concrete findings, an independent peer_reviewer turns the paper into a graded 0-100 score on the same axes, and a scientific_writer fixes the prose, figures, and code — running the user's <plot_command> to regenerate figures. The loop runs until the score clears <pass_threshold> or the budget is hit. All work happens on copies inside a sandbox; the user's originals are never touched.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
