npx wtf-p

Academic writing commands for Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and OpenCode.

What This Does

WTF-P installs structured commands into your AI coding assistant that turn it into an academic writing system. You get spec-driven workflows, citation grounding, section isolation, and quality verification — not just "write me a paper." Every section is planned before it's written, verified after, and grounded in your actual BibTeX sources.

Quick Start

npx wtf-p                  # Install commands (Claude Code by default)

Then in your AI assistant:

/wtfp:new-paper            # Guided interview about your research
/wtfp:create-outline       # Build section structure + word budgets
/wtfp:plan-section 1       # Plan first section
/wtfp:write-section        # Write the section

Run /wtfp:help for the full command list.

Runtime Support

npx wtf-p --global              # Claude Code (default)
npx wtf-p --global --gemini     # Gemini CLI
npx wtf-p --global --opencode   # OpenCode

Installation

# Default: install to Claude Code
npx wtf-p

# Global install (recommended — persists across projects)
npx wtf-p --global

# Local to current project only
npx wtf-p --local

# Specify a custom config directory
npx wtf-p --global --config-dir ~/research/.gemini

# Check what's installed
npx wtf-p status
