Referee a whole mathematical manuscript for correctness, edge cases, notation, exposition and claim calibration. Use for a referee report, whole-paper stress test, or section-by-section manuscript audit. Do not use for a focused claim or proof audit, proofreading alone, a standalone citation or computation check, answering referee comments on one's own paper, or developing new proofs.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/nidrissi/mathbox /tmp/mathbox && ln -s /tmp/mathbox/skills/referee ~/.claude/skills/referee
```

## From README

Mathematical manuscript referee Assess the manuscript supplied using native reasoning and delegation; do not external review runtimes, provider SDKs or credentials. Default to leaving the manuscript unchanged. A review request authorizes review artifacts, not rewriting proofs, contacting authors or submitting a report. Establish scope and prepare Read applicable project instructions and resolve the authoritative manuscript, its version, source/project boundary, and requested review scope. Ask before choosing between genuinely competing manuscripts or unclear boundaries. Focused obligations use the available specialists below; whole-paper coverage and synthesis remain this skill's responsibility. Read review-protocol.md before reviewing. Its severity, confidence, evidence and limited-context rules apply to every pass, including synthesis. For LaTeX sources, use the optional standard-library helper following preparation.md.
