EA Introduction Planner
Transforms source papers, context, and rough notes into a structured, paragraph-by-paragraph writing blueprint for an academic introduction based on given sources. The sources define the totality of information, the user chooses what they want to focus on. The output tells the user exactly what to write in each paragraph — not the words themselves, but the logical instructions. For the actual prose, use ea-academic-writer.
The logic behind this approach
An introduction fails when the writer doesn't know what each paragraph is for. The most common failure: a stream-of-consciousness literature dump that doesn't build an argument. This skill solves that by:
- Mapping the territory first — extracting what topics exist in the literature
- Filtering to what matters — letting the user choose the relevant thread using a series of multiple choice questions
- Designing the argument — constructing paragraph blueprints that build logically toward the research gap and the paper's contribution
The goal is that after this skill runs, the user knows exactly what every paragraph does and why, and can go look up the specific details (e.g., on Consensus) to fill in the citations.
