lit-gate

lit-gate is a Non-code artifact review skill for AI agents, published by bionoob7 in the nlr-workflow repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates lit-gate D (61/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Quantitative submission-readiness gate for academic manuscript drafts. Runs a battery of objective, tool-based checks — word count, em-dash frequency, citation density, abstract presence, section structure, figure callouts, unfilled placeholders, broken citation keys, and (for narrative reviews) systematic-review language patterns — then produces a structured pass/fail scorecard and a verdict. Unlike asking Claude to "check the manuscript", this skill uses Bash and Grep to measure the actual file, so the results are verifiable and not self-reported. Use before any submission-prep step, after all editing passes are complete, or any time you need a quick health check on a draft. Works on any markdown manuscript. Invoke with /lit-gate, or /lit-gate [word-limit] to set a custom word count target.
