Eliminates manual citation checking and format compliance work for academic papers submitted to Chinese universities.

A deterministic CLI workflow for finishing academic theses. It links Word, Zotero/EndNote, and LaTeX to run citation-completeness and formatting checks, apply safe preview-first fixes, produce review-handoff artifacts, and gate pre-submission readiness. Built for graduate students at Chinese universities converting Word documents to LaTeX and meeting institutional submission rules. It does not write thesis content.
