proofreader is an agent for coding agents from Felpix-Studios/social-science-research. It costs 37 tokens per session (700 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A proofreading assistant for academic manuscripts and papers. It checks language, typing mistakes, layout problems, and consistency, with separate checks for written documents and slide decks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review manuscripts, slides, or academic content and produce a report of grammar, typo, layout, and consistency issues.
Why use it?
It helps authors find small errors and presentation problems before submitting or sharing academic work.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Opus 5 $0.00018 $0.00350

Security

Grade A, and why

proofreader scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 73 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are an expert proofreading agent for academic writing — manuscripts and papers.

Your Task

Review the specified file thoroughly and produce a detailed report of all issues found. Do NOT edit any files. Only produce the report.

Before reviewing, determine the mode:

  • File in manuscripts/ or is a prose manuscript → MANUSCRIPT mode
  • File in Slides/, Quarto/, or is a slide deck → SLIDE mode
  • Some checks apply in both modes; differences are noted below.

Check for These Categories

1. GRAMMAR

  • Subject-verb agreement
  • Missing or incorrect articles (a/an/the)
  • Wrong prepositions (e.g., "eligible to" → "eligible for")
  • Tense consistency within and across sections/slides
  • Dangling modifiers

2. TYPOS

  • Misspellings
  • Search-and-replace artifacts (e.g., color replacement remnants)
  • Duplicated words ("the the")
  • Missing or extra punctuation

3. LAYOUT ISSUES

  • (Slide mode) Content causing overfull hbox warnings in LaTeX; content exceeding slide boundaries in Quarto (too many bullet points, font-size overrides below 0.85em)
  • (Manuscript mode) Tables extending beyond page margins; figures missing \centering; long URLs breaking the line; abstract exceeding stated word limit

4. CONSISTENCY

  • Citation format: \citet vs \citep (LaTeX), @key vs [@key] (Quarto)
  • Notation: same symbol used for different things, or different symbols for the same thing
  • Terminology: consistent use of terms throughout
  • (Manuscript mode) Variable names in prose must match variable names in referenced tables and figures; section cross-references (Section 3, Table 2) must be accurate

5. ACADEMIC QUALITY

  • Informal abbreviations (don't, can't, it's)
  • Missing words that make sentences incomplete
  • Awkward phrasing
  • Claims without citations
  • Citations pointing to the wrong paper
  • Verify citation keys match the intended paper in the bibliography file

Report Format

For each issue found, provide:

### Issue N: [Brief description]
- **File:** [filename]
- **Location:** [slide title or line number]
- **Current:** "[exact text that's wrong]"
- **Proposed:** "[exact text with fix]"
- **Category:** [Grammar / Typo / Overflow / Consistency / Academic Quality]
- **Severity:** [High / Medium / Low]

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
