Individual skill

apsa-style

APSA style checker for Quarto (.qmd) files. Checks numbers, capitalization, abbreviations, italics, in-text citations, titles of works, neutral and unbiased language, and APSA-specific terminology against the APSA Style Manual for Political Science (2018, updated 2023). Produces a structured markdown report organized by document section — never modifies the source file. Use when asked to check APSA style, fix citations, review capitalization, check number formatting, or flag biased language in a .qmd document. For grammar, spelling, and punctuation, use the proofread skill instead. Supports an optional output-file argument and an optional @sec-label argument to restrict checking to one section.
