auto-review-loop-llm（auto 审查 loop LLM）

Auto Review Loop (Generic LLM): Autonomous Research Improvement

Autonomously iterate: review → implement fixes → re-review, until the external reviewer gives a positive assessment or MAX_ROUNDS is reached.

Context: $ARGUMENTS

Constants

• MAX_ROUNDS = 4
• POSITIVE_THRESHOLD: score >= 6/10, or verdict contains "accept", "sufficient", "ready for submission"
• REVIEW_DOC: review-stage/AUTO_REVIEW.md (cumulative log) *(fall back to ./AUTO_REVIEW.md for legacy projects)*

LLM Configuration

This skill uses any OpenAI-compatible API for external review via the llm-chat MCP server.

Configuration via MCP Server (Recommended)

Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "llm-chat": {
      "command": "/usr/bin/python3",
      "args": ["/Users/yourname/.claude/mcp-servers/llm-chat/server.py"],
      "env": {
        "LLM_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
        "LLM_BASE_URL": "https://api.deepseek.com/v1",
        "LLM_MODEL": "deepseek-chat"
      }
    }
  }
}

Supported Providers

API Call Method

Primary: MCP Tool

mcp__llm-chat__chat:
  prompt: |
    [Review prompt content]
  model: "deepseek-chat"
  system: "You are a senior ML reviewer..."

Fallback: curl

curl -s "${LLM_BASE_URL}/chat/completions" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${LLM_API_KEY}" \
  -d '{
    "model": "${LLM_MODEL}",
    "messages": [
      {"role": "system", "content": "You are a senior ML reviewer..."},
      {"role": "user", "content": "[review prompt]"}
    ],
    "max_tokens": 4096
  }'

State Persistence (Compact Recovery)

Persist state to review-stage/REVIEW_STATE.json after each round:

{
  "round": 2,
  "status": "in_progress",
  "last_score": 5.0,
  "last_verdict": "not ready",
  "pending_experiments": [],
  "timestamp": "2026-03-15T10:00:00"
}

Write this file at the end of every Phase E (after documenting the round).

On completion, set "status": "completed".

Workflow

Initialization

1. Check review-stage/REVIEW_STATE.json for recovery *(fall back to ./REVIEW_STATE.json if not found — legacy path)*
2. Read project context and prior reviews
3. Initialize round counter

Loop (up to MAX_ROUNDS)

Phase A: Review

If MCP available:

mcp__llm-chat__chat:
  system: "You are a senior ML reviewer (NeurIPS/ICML level)."
  prompt: |
    [Round N/MAX_ROUNDS of autonomous review loop]

    [Full research context: claims, methods, results, known weaknesses]
    [Changes since last round, if any]

    1. Score this work 1-10 for a top venue
    2. List remaining critical weaknesses (ranked by severity)
    3. For each weakness, specify the MINIMUM fix
    4. State clearly: is this READY for submission? Yes/No/Almost

    Be brutally honest. If the work is ready, say so clearly.

If MCP NOT available:

curl -s "${LLM_BASE_URL}/chat/completions" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${LLM_API_KEY}" \
  -d '{
    "model": "${LLM_MODEL}",
    "messages": [
      {"role": "system", "content": "You are a senior ML reviewer (NeurIPS/ICML level)."},
      {"role": "user", "content": "[Full review prompt]"}
    ],
    "max_tokens": 4096
  }'

Phase B: Parse Assessment

CRITICAL: Save the FULL raw response verbatim. Then extract:

• Score (numeric 1-10)
• Verdict ("ready" / "almost" / "not ready")
• Action items (ranked list of fixes)

STOP: If score >= 6 AND verdict contains "ready/almost"

Phase C: Implement Fixes

Priority: metric additions > reframing > new experiments

Phase D: Wait for Results

Monitor remote experiments

Phase E: Document Round

Append to review-stage/AUTO_REVIEW.md:

## Round N (timestamp)

### Assessment (Summary)
- Score: X/10
- Verdict: [ready/almost/not ready]
- Key criticisms: [bullet list]

### Reviewer Raw Response

<details>
<summary>Click to expand full reviewer response</summary>

[Paste the COMPLETE raw response here — verbatim, unedited.]

</details>

### Actions Taken
- [what was implemented/changed]

### Results
- [experiment outcomes, if any]

### Status
- [continuing to round N+1 / stopping]

Write review-stage/REVIEW_STATE.json with current state.

Termination

1. Set review-stage/REVIEW_STATE.json status to "completed"
2. Write final summary

Key Rules

• Large file handling: If the Write tool fails due to file size, immediately retry using Bash (cat << 'EOF' > file) to write in chunks. Do NOT ask the user for permission — just do it silently.
• Anti-hallucination citations: When adding references, NEVER fabricate BibTeX. Use DBLP → CrossRef → [VERIFY] chain. Do NOT generate BibTeX from memory.
• Be honest about weaknesses
• Implement fixes BEFORE re-reviewing
• Document everything
• Include previous context in round 2+ prompts
• Prefer MCP tool over curl when available

Prompt Template for Round 2+

mcp__llm-chat__chat:
  system: "You are a senior ML reviewer (NeurIPS/ICML level)."
  prompt: |
    [Round N/MAX_ROUNDS of autonomous review loop]

    ## Previous Review Summary (Round N-1)
    - Previous Score: X/10
    - Previous Verdict: [ready/almost/not ready]
    - Previous Key Weaknesses: [list]

    ## Changes Since Last Review
    1. [Action 1]: [result]
    2. [Action 2]: [result]

    ## Updated Results
    [paste updated metrics/tables]

    Please re-score and re-assess:
    1. Score this work 1-10 for a top venue
    2. List remaining critical weaknesses (ranked by severity)
    3. For each weakness, specify the MINIMUM fix
    4. State clearly: is this READY for submission? Yes/No/Almost

    Be brutally honest. If the work is ready, say so clearly.

Output Protocols

Follow these shared protocols for all output files: - Output Versioning Protocol — write timestamped file first, then copy to fixed name - Output Manifest Protocol — log every output to MANIFEST.md - Output Language Protocol — respect the project's language setting
