Record AI/human research workflow decisions, human checkpoints, tool use, override reasons, unresolved risks, verification responsibilities, and AI-use disclosure notes for scholarly manuscripts, book projects, proposals, or release packets.

Create structured annotated bibliographies when sources, citations, excerpts, abstracts, notes, PDFs, or bibliographies need notes on argument, method, evidence, relevance, limits, and chapter placement.

Convert reference-manager notes, document highlights, manual annotations, excerpts, or reading notes (for example, Zotero notes or PDF highlights) into source-bound notes while preserving quote, paraphrase, summary, interpretation, citekey, metadata, and locator gaps.

Build a research book-level thesis tree when a thesis, notes, literature map, agenda, outline, or draft needs claims, warrants, evidence paths, assumptions, counterarguments, chapter sequence, and dependencies.

Verify comparable titles and positioning claims for research nonfiction proposals, press pitches, agent queries, grant applications, audience claims, market claims, timeliness claims, and publication positioning.

Develop a research nonfiction book proposal when a project needs thesis, contribution, audience, market or field positioning, chapter summaries, comparable titles, and sample-material planning.

Select, compare, and integrate case studies when examples, analogies, counter-cases, comparison sets, or case dossiers must strengthen a research argument without cherry-picking or overgeneralization.

Design or diagnose research nonfiction chapters when chapter purpose, central question, claim, section sequence, concept definitions, evidence placement, counterarguments, transitions, or revision priorities matter.

Audit citation accuracy when drafts, footnotes, bibliographies, quotes, paraphrases, page numbers, source-claim fit, fabricated-reference risk, or unsupported cited claims need verification.

Extract and audit major claims from research drafts, outlines, notes, theses, or arguments by classifying claim type, evidence status, citation need, confidence, overclaiming risk, and safer wording.

Map manuscript or note claims to claim IDs, source notes, citekeys, locators, and evidence status when traceability, unsupported claims, orphan claims, or incomplete evidence chains need review.

Run a research peer-review style critique when a thesis, chapter, outline, proposal, or argument needs objections, rival explanations, missing literatures, positional blind spots, and revision paths.

Turn dictated research thoughts, voice transcripts, speech-to-text output, meeting notes, or rambling spoken fragments into structured scholarly notes, claims, questions, evidence needs, ambiguities, and next actions without changing the author's meaning.

Process academic index exports, library catalogue exports, bibliography exports, tabular files, or pasted candidate source records (for example, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, Elicit, scite, library catalogues, CSV, BIB, or RIS) into deduped screening records, duplicate clusters, and search-log updates.

Repair spelling, grammar, sentence boundaries, punctuation, paragraph breaks, and local readability in existing scholarly prose for dyslexic or dysorthographic authors while preserving meaning, authorial voice, uncertainty, evidence limits, and a brief change summary.

Route mixed or unclear accessibility bottlenecks for dyslexic, dysorthographic, dictation-heavy, or reading-fatigued scholarly authors when rough notes, spelling ambiguity, voice material, dense sources, or prose repair needs overlap and no smaller accessibility skill clearly owns the task.

Turn source notes, annotations, excerpts, or reading notes into structured extraction tables, source matrices, and comparison grids before synthesis, literature mapping, or claim drafting.

Audit scholarly figures, tables, charts, captions, screenshots, extracted results, image panels, and visual evidence for data provenance, axis and caption accuracy, duplicate visual risk, source licensing, manipulation, and claim support limits.

Map a research literature when a topic, source list, bibliography, annotations, or notes need schools of thought, debates, consensus, intellectual genealogy, methods, gaps, and thesis implications.

Review multiple chapters or a whole manuscript when thesis coherence, repetition, contradictions, concept tracking, tone consistency, chapter order, argument drift, or revision priorities need diagnosis.

Evaluate source credibility when articles, books, reports, datasets, case studies, journalism, or web sources need method, evidence quality, bias, generalizability, and source-claim support limits audited.

Reduce reading burden for scholarly work by turning dense articles, source excerpts, search results, bibliographies, chapter drafts, or long notes into skim-read-skip triage, close-reading targets, extraction priorities, evidence needs, and next actions without inventing source support.

Coordinate a full research nonfiction or research book workflow when a project spans multiple stages, has an unclear next step, or mixes accessibility triage, agenda, sources, literature review, argument, chapters, evidence ledgers, citation audits, and manuscript revision.

Auto-detect research intent for scholarly nonfiction tasks and choose the smallest useful research-book skill, with normal mode for light plan-first routing and deep mode for always attempting source lookup within strict verification limits.

Audit notes, research artifacts, manuscript exports, proposal materials, and shared files for privacy, copyright, quotation, license, secret, credential, local metadata, and release risks before external sharing.

Audit scholar-grade research workflows, AI-assisted papers, draft analyses, source pipelines, or book artifacts for integrity failure modes such as hallucinated evidence, methodology fabrication, implementation bugs, shortcut reliance, frame-lock, weak human checkpoints, and override decisions.

Edit research nonfiction prose when passages, chapter excerpts, proposals, abstracts, or introductions need clarity, precision, structure, rhythm, compression, readability, or voice while preserving nuance and evidence limits.

Turn a broad research book idea, topic, thesis intuition, manifesto, or interdisciplinary question into precise research questions, scope boundaries, contribution claims, key terms, evidence needs, and an initial agenda before source gathering or outlining.

Design source-discovery strategies when research books or literature reviews need source plans, keyword banks, database searches, inclusion rules, citation chaining, primary-source targets, candidate sources, or search logs.
