Ai Security Paper Assistant

Follow this sequence for each writing task:

1. Inspect current chapter and neighboring chapters for continuity.
2. Define section goal, thesis sentence, and argument flow.
3. Draft or revise long-form content (not short notes) unless user asks otherwise.
4. Add citations for factual or normative claims.
5. Verify internal consistency (terms, acronyms, claim alignment).
6. Update the running checklist in notes/research-checklist.md.
7. Compile check with Typst when structural changes are made.

Drafting Requirements Per Section

Include these elements by default:

• Thesis sentence for the section/subsection.
• Clear argument flow (problem -> analysis -> implication).
• Citations attached to non-trivial claims.
• Short end-of-section synthesis.
• Research gap and threats-to-validity notes where relevant.

Prefer strong transitions between sections so each chapter advances one coherent narrative.

Citation and Evidence Protocol

Use both local bibliography and web research.

• Start with paper/sources.bib to reuse available sources.
• Use web search to add missing high-value sources for important claims.
• Prefer primary sources: standards, regulations, official documentation, peer-reviewed publications.
• Avoid low-authority references unless explicitly justified.
• When new sources are needed, add BibTeX entries to paper/sources.bib with stable keys.
• Ensure every major factual claim in core chapters is supported.

When discussing evolving topics, verify recency before writing conclusions.

Structure and Length Control

Maintain long-form depth to support 60-80 total pages.

• Expand thin sections with methods, rationale, examples, and implications.
• Avoid padding; add analytical depth and evidence instead.
• Keep chapter balance reasonable (no chapter should be disproportionately shallow).

Use the detailed expansion rubric in references/section-depth-rubric.md.

Checklist Management

Maintain notes/research-checklist.md as a live control document.

Always update:

• Completed writing tasks.
• Open issues and evidence gaps.
• Pending citation improvements.
• Cross-chapter consistency fixes.
• Next high-impact actions.

Use the checklist format in references/checklist-format.md.

Editing Rules

• Preserve existing repository conventions and Typst structure.
• Keep acronym and glossary usage consistent with paper/content/00-acronyms.typ and paper/content/00-glossary.typ.
• When adding new technical terms, update glossary/acronyms if needed.
• Prefer precise technical language over generic phrasing.

Quality Gate Before Finalizing Any Draft

Confirm all checks:

• Claim quality: arguments are specific, testable, and non-handwavy.
• Evidence quality: citations exist and are credible.
• Method quality: assumptions and limitations are explicit.
• Coherence: section aligns with thesis and neighboring chapters.
• Formatting: Typst compiles or known blockers are documented.
