Refines ML/scientific LaTeX papers based on reviewer or advisor feedback. Handles structural reorganization (moving problem statements, merging sections), concrete instantiations of abstract tables, cross-file deduplication, and compilation verification. Use when the user requests paper revisions, addresses reviewer comments, restructures sections, or improves exposition clarity.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Refining ML Papers: From Feedback to Camera-Ready
This skill captures battle-tested patterns for revising scientific LaTeX papers in response to reviewer/advisor feedback. Built from extensive revision work on multi-file ICML-style papers with Overleaf git workflows.
## When to Use This Skill
Invoke when the user:
- Has reviewer or advisor feedback to address
- Wants to restructure paper sections (move content, merge sections)
- Needs to explain tables or figures with concrete examples
- Asks to improve exposition clarity or reduce redundancy
- Wants to fix LaTeX compilation issues after restructuring
- Needs to prepare a camera-ready or arXiv version
## Core Methodology
### Phase 1: Understand the Paper Architecture
Before making ANY changes:
1. **Map the file structure**: `Glob` for `**/*.tex` to find all LaTeX files
2. **Identify the main file** and all `\input{}` dependencies
3. **Read the target sections** completely before editing
4. **Check for shared macros**: Look for `\providecommand` / `\newcommand` patterns that indicate cross-file dependencies
5. **Note existing labels**: `Grep` for `\label{` and `\ref{` to understand cross-reference graph
```

How to install
mdr add shubham0704/claude-skills/refining-ml-papers@sha256:73dbdbeafec12064The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.62cbee6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
