Proofread Lecture Files

Run the mandatory proofreading protocol on lecture files. This produces a report of all issues found WITHOUT editing any source files.

Steps

  1. Identify files to review:

    • If
      $ARGUMENTS
      is a specific filename: review that file only
    • If
      $ARGUMENTS
      is "all": review all lecture files in
      Slides/
      and
      Quarto/
  2. For each file, launch the proofreader agent that checks for:

    GRAMMAR: Subject-verb agreement, articles (a/an/the), prepositions, tense consistency TYPOS: Misspellings, search-and-replace artifacts, duplicated words OVERFLOW: Overfull hbox (LaTeX), content exceeding slide boundaries (Quarto) CONSISTENCY: Citation format, notation, terminology ACADEMIC QUALITY: Informal language, missing words, awkward constructions

  3. Produce a detailed report for each file listing every finding with:

    • Location (line number or slide title)
    • Current text (what's wrong)
    • Proposed fix (what it should be)
    • Category and severity
  4. Save each report to

    quality_reports/
    :

    • For
      .tex
      files:
      quality_reports/FILENAME_report.md
    • For
      .qmd
      files:
      quality_reports/FILENAME_qmd_report.md
  5. IMPORTANT: Do NOT edit any source files. Only produce the report. Fixes are applied separately after user review.

  6. Present summary to the user:

    • Total issues found per file
    • Breakdown by category
    • Most critical issues highlighted
