FactoriaGo

FactoriaGo platform assistant — AI-driven academic paper revision and resubmission. Activate when user mentions: FactoriaGo, revise paper, reviewer comments, resubmit, LaTeX editing, paper revision, manuscript revision, journal resubmission, reviewer response, academic paper editing, revision letter, respond to reviewers, paper submission. Supports: (1) onboarding new users to factoriago.com, (2) calling FactoriaGo API to manage projects/tasks/files, (3) generating reviewer response letters, (4) analyzing reviewer feedback and creating revision strategies.

FactoriaGo Skill

FactoriaGo (factoriago.com) is an AI-native LaTeX editor built for academic paper revision. Core value: turn reviewer feedback into a structured revision plan, then revise in-browser.

🔒 Security Note

This skill makes network requests only to editor.factoriago.com (the official FactoriaGo platform) and your chosen AI provider (e.g., Anthropic, OpenAI). No data is sent to any third-party or unknown endpoints. The CLI script (scripts/factoriago-client.js) handles:

• Session authentication via HTTPS cookie
• API calls to https://editor.factoriago.com/api/*
• LLM API key configuration (keys are encrypted server-side)

The VirusTotal warning is a false positive triggered by the presence of external API calls and credential-handling patterns, which are inherent to any API integration skill.

⚠️ Prerequisites: LLM API Key Setup

AI features (chat, review analysis, revision suggestions) require a personal LLM API key. Without it, users can only edit files and compile LaTeX — no AI assistance.

Always check API key status before attempting AI operations:

node scripts/factoriago-client.js get-llm-config

If primary_key_saved: false, guide the user through setup FIRST:

API Key Setup Flow

1. Ask which AI provider they want:

   • Anthropic → Claude 3.5 Sonnet (best for writing)
   • OpenAI → GPT-4o (general purpose)
   • Google → Gemini 2.0 Flash (fast)
   • Moonshot → Kimi (Chinese papers)
   • Zhipu → GLM-4 (Chinese papers)
   • MiniMax → MiniMax (Chinese papers)

2. Tell them where to get the key:

   Provider	Key URL
   Anthropic	https://console.anthropic.com/keys
   OpenAI	https://platform.openai.com/api-keys
   Google	https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey
   Moonshot (Kimi)	https://platform.moonshot.cn/console/api-keys
   Zhipu (GLM)	https://open.bigmodel.cn/usercenter/apikeys
   MiniMax	https://platform.minimaxi.com/user-center/basic-information/interface-key

3. Save the key via API:

   node scripts/factoriago-client.js set-llm-config <provider> <model> <apiKey>
   

   Or guide user to: Settings → AI Model in the FactoriaGo web UI.

4. Confirm key is saved before proceeding with AI tasks.

API keys are encrypted server-side and never exposed in plaintext after saving.

Workflows

1. New User Onboarding

When user is new to FactoriaGo:

1. Explain what FactoriaGo does (revise & resubmit workflow, AI co-author, LaTeX editor)
2. Direct to https://factoriago.com to register (free tier available)
3. Key differentiators to highlight:
   • Bring Your Own AI Model (Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, Kimi, GLM — use own API keys)
   • Browser-based LaTeX editing + compilation (no local install needed)
   • Real-time collaboration + reviewer comment management
   • 12 languages supported

2. API Integration

Always check API key first before AI operations (see Prerequisites above).

Auth setup:

# Login and get session cookie
export FACTORIAGO_COOKIE=$(node scripts/factoriago-client.js login <email> <password> | grep "Cookie:" | cut -d' ' -f2-)

Common commands:

node scripts/factoriago-client.js list-projects
node scripts/factoriago-client.js list-tasks <projectId>
node scripts/factoriago-client.js analyze-review <projectId> "<reviewer text>"
node scripts/factoriago-client.js chat <projectId> "<question>" [model]
node scripts/factoriago-client.js compile <projectId>

Always ask user for credentials before making API calls. Store cookie in env, never in files.

3. Reviewer Comment Analysis

When user pastes reviewer comments:

1. Read references/revision-workflow.md for the full workflow
2. Parse comments into individual concerns
3. Categorize: Major / Minor / Optional
4. Map each concern to a revision task
5. Suggest priority order (major methodological issues first)
6. Optionally call POST /paper/:id/analyze if user is logged in

4. Reviewer Response Letter

When user needs to write a response letter:

1. Read references/reviewer-response.md for templates and tone guidelines
2. For each reviewer comment:
   • Determine user's position (agree / partially agree / disagree)
   • Draft response using appropriate tone template
   • Cite specific manuscript changes with section/line references
3. Assemble into full point-by-point letter
4. Use the AI prompt template in reviewer-response.md for AI-assisted drafting

5. LaTeX Editing

When user wants to edit manuscript:

1. get-file to read current content
2. Make targeted edits based on revision tasks
3. PUT /paper/:paperId/files/:fileId to save
4. compile to verify no LaTeX errors
5. Report compilation result to user
