name: literature-dialogue-builder description: Use when the user wants a literature review, related-work section, or reading notes transformed from author-by-author summary into a critical academic dialogue. Make sure to use this whenever the request involves research gaps, literature synthesis, theoretical debate, consensus-versus-disagreement framing, or rebuilding a review paragraph around “what the field agrees on, where it diverges, and what remains unresolved.”

Literature Dialogue Builder

Purpose

Turn list-like literature description into a critical, synthetic academic conversation.

When to Use

Use this skill whenever the user:

• has rough literature notes or a draft review paragraph that reads like A said... B said...
• wants help identifying research gaps or unresolved debates
• needs a stronger related-work or literature-review section
• wants consensus, disagreement, and limitation framing rather than simple listing
• asks how to justify the current study within an existing literature base

Core Rule

Remain faithful to the cited literature. Do not invent positions, disagreements, or “gaps” that are not grounded in the user’s sources.

Preferred Logic

Default to a structure like:

1. summarize the main consensus or shared tendency
2. identify important divergence, tension, or limitation
3. show the unresolved space that motivates the present study

Workflow

1. Read the user’s notes, draft, or source summary.
2. Identify core claims and schools of thought.
3. Cluster overlaps and disagreements.
4. Rebuild the paragraph into a synthetic review passage.
5. Briefly explain the new logic if helpful.

Response Style

Be analytical and concise. The output should sound like a reviewer-level synthesis, not a stitched summary.
