What auto-paper-improvement-loop does
> 🔒 **Do not wrap this skill in `/loop`, `/schedule`, or `CronCreate`.** It > already loops internally (review → fix → recompile) with its own round > structure and a deliberate fresh-reviewer bias guard each round (no > `codex-reply`). Re-asking it to "improve the paper" on a > wall-clock timer produces no new signal — quality changes when the *review* > changes, not when the clock ticks — and a timed re-run that also accepts its > own output to decide when to stop crosses into self-acquittal > (`acceptance-gate.md`). Schedule the *external wait that precedes it*, not the > improvement loop.…
