Limitations Scope Writer

Limitations Scope Writer（局限性与研究范围撰写Skill）

Write limitations and scope as claim-boundary control. This skill helps the paper acknowledge real constraints, explain their impact, and preserve the valid contribution.
Use this skill for:
  • drafting limitations sections
  • writing scope statements and failure-case paragraphs
  • calibrating conclusion caveats
  • turning negative or mixed results into honest boundaries
  • writing ethics, broader impact, and deployment caveats when required
  • reducing overclaiming without weakening supported claims
Do not use this skill for hostile review. Use 
paper-reviewer-simulator
for reviewer critique. Use 
experiment-story-writer
for mixed-result results prose. Use 
paper-writing-memory-manager
to propagate scope changes to title, abstract, intro, results, captions, and conclusion. Use 
paper-draft-consistency-editor
for full-draft consistency.
撰写局限性与研究范围内容，以此界定研究主张的边界。本Skill可帮助论文明确真实存在的约束条件，解释其影响，并保留研究的有效贡献。
适用于以下场景：
  • 撰写局限性章节
  • 撰写研究范围声明与失效场景段落
  • 调整结论中的说明内容
  • 将负面或混合结果转化为客观的研究边界
  • 按需撰写伦理、广泛影响及部署说明内容
  • 在不削弱已获支持的研究主张前提下，减少过度表述
请勿将本Skill用于恶意评审。如需模拟评审意见，请使用
paper-reviewer-simulator
；如需撰写混合结果的描述性文本，请使用
experiment-story-writer
；如需将研究范围的变更同步至标题、摘要、引言、结果、图例及结论，请使用
paper-writing-memory-manager
；如需进行全文档一致性校验，请使用
paper-draft-consistency-editor
。

Core Principles

核心原则

  • A limitation should define the boundary of the claim, not apologize for the paper existing.
  • Be specific about affected settings, assumptions, data, metrics, compute, users, or deployment contexts.
  • Pair each limitation with its consequence for interpretation.
  • Do not bury limitations that contradict a main claim; narrow the claim or route to diagnosis.
  • Do not invent mitigations, future work, or ethics safeguards that the project does not support.
  • Scope language should appear wherever the paper might otherwise overclaim: abstract, intro, results, limitations, and conclusion.
  • Limitations should be consistent with the evidence board and writing contract.
  • 局限性内容应界定研究主张的边界，而非为论文的存在致歉。
  • 需明确说明受影响的场景、假设、数据、指标、算力、用户或部署环境。
  • 每项局限性需搭配对应的解读影响说明。
  • 若某项局限性与核心研究主张相悖，切勿隐瞒，应缩小主张范围或转向问题诊断。
  • 切勿编造项目未支持的缓解方案、未来工作或伦理保障措施。
  • 研究范围表述应出现在所有可能出现过度主张的位置：摘要、引言、结果、局限性及结论。
  • 局限性内容需与证据看板及写作协议保持一致。

Limitations Scope Snapshot

局限性与研究范围快照

  • Target venue:
  • Paper archetype:
  • Main claims:
  • Supported scope:
  • Known limitations:
  • Failure cases:
  • Mixed or negative results:
  • Dataset/benchmark constraints:
  • Compute/system constraints:
  • Human/domain/deployment risks:
  • Ethics or broader-impact requirements:
  • Claims needing downgrade:

If a limitation undermines the primary claim, route to `result-diagnosis`, `paper-positioning-planner`, or `paper-evidence-board` before writing final text.
  • 目标期刊/会议:
  • 论文类型:
  • 核心研究主张:
  • 已获支持的研究范围:
  • 已知局限性:
  • 失效场景:
  • 混合或负面结果:
  • 数据集/基准测试约束:
  • 算力/系统约束:
  • 人类/领域/部署风险:
  • 伦理或广泛影响要求:
  • 需要降级的研究主张:

若某项局限性会削弱核心研究主张，需先通过`result-diagnosis`、`paper-positioning-planner`或`paper-evidence-board`处理，再撰写最终文本。

Step 2 - Classify Limitations

步骤2 - 分类局限性

Read 
references/limitation-patterns.md
and classify each limitation:
  • data or benchmark scope
  • model or method assumption
  • metric or evaluation scope
  • compute or scale constraint
  • generalization boundary
  • failure mode
  • human/domain/deployment constraint
  • theoretical assumption
  • artifact or reproducibility constraint
For each limitation, decide whether it requires:
  • local wording only
  • claim downgrade
  • new experiment
  • related-work repositioning
  • ethics/broader-impact text
  • reviewer-risk follow-up
读取
references/limitation-patterns.md
文件，并对每项局限性进行分类：
  • 数据或基准测试范围
  • 模型或方法假设
  • 指标或评估范围
  • 算力或规模约束
  • 泛化边界
  • 失效模式
  • 人类/领域/部署约束
  • 理论假设
  • 人工产物或可复现性约束
针对每项局限性，确定其是否需要：
  • 仅调整局部表述
  • 降级研究主张
  • 开展新实验
  • 重新定位相关工作
  • 撰写伦理/广泛影响文本
  • 跟进评审风险

Step 3 - Create Scope Plan

步骤3 - 创建研究范围规划

Create or update:
text
paper/.agent/limitations-scope-plan.md
If there is no 
paper/
directory and the current directory is the paper repo, save to:
text
.agent/limitations-scope-plan.md
Use 
templates/limitations-scope-plan.md
.
For each limitation, record:
  • affected claim
  • evidence source
  • wording consequence
  • paper locations needing scope language
创建或更新以下文件：
text
paper/.agent/limitations-scope-plan.md
若不存在
paper/
目录且当前目录为论文仓库，则保存至：
text
.agent/limitations-scope-plan.md
需使用
templates/limitations-scope-plan.md
模板。
针对每项局限性，记录：
  • 受影响的研究主张
  • 证据来源
  • 表述调整影响
  • 需要添加研究范围表述的论文位置

Step 4 - Draft or Revise Limitation Text

步骤4 - 撰写或修改局限性文本

For each limitation paragraph:
  • state the limitation concretely
  • identify the affected scope
  • explain how it changes interpretation
  • preserve what the paper still establishes
  • optionally name a realistic future direction
Avoid vague phrases such as "more work is needed" unless the needed work is specified.
针对每个局限性段落：
  • 具体说明局限性内容
  • 明确受影响的研究范围
  • 解释其如何改变研究解读
  • 保留论文已确立的研究价值
  • 可选择性提及合理的未来研究方向
避免使用模糊表述，如“需要更多研究”，除非明确说明所需开展的具体工作。

Step 5 - Propagate Scope

步骤5 - 同步研究范围变更

Limitations often require edits outside the limitations section. Check:
  • title
  • abstract
  • contribution bullets
  • introduction claims
  • result interpretation
  • captions
  • conclusion
If a scope correction affects top-level prose, route to 
abstract-title-contribution-writer
or 
paper-draft-consistency-editor
.
局限性内容的调整通常需要修改局限性章节以外的部分，请检查：
  • 标题
  • 摘要
  • 贡献要点
  • 引言中的研究主张
  • 结果解读
  • 图例
  • 结论
若研究范围调整影响了顶层文本，需通过
abstract-title-contribution-writer
或
paper-draft-consistency-editor
处理。

Step 6 - Final Checks

步骤6 - 最终检查

Before finalizing:
  • limitations are specific and evidence-grounded
  • no limitation silently contradicts the main claim
  • scope language appears in all high-risk locations
  • failure cases are explained rather than hidden
  • ethics/broader-impact text does not overpromise safeguards
  • future work is realistic and not used to cover missing required evidence
  • reviewer-risk follow-ups are explicit
  • scope and limitation changes are written back through 
    paper-writing-memory-manager
定稿前需确认：
  • 局限性内容具体且有证据支撑
  • 无局限性内容与核心研究主张隐性矛盾
  • 所有高风险位置均包含研究范围表述
  • 失效场景已得到解释而非隐瞒
  • 伦理/广泛影响文本未过度承诺保障措施
  • 未来研究方向合理，未被用于掩盖缺失的必要证据
  • 评审风险跟进事项明确
  • 研究范围与局限性的变更已通过
