This skill provides explicit, pedagogical instruction on complex CrossFrame concepts. It is designed to move beyond simple definitions by structuring the output into plain language explanations, conceptual mapping, common misreading boundaries, real-world signals, and practical exercises. It is ideal for users who need deep, structured, and comprehensive understanding of complex theoretical frameworks.

Guides scholars in the methodology of Critical Inquiry (CI), where evidence is not data but objects (texts, images, artworks, cases) read closely through theory. This skill teaches how to select objects that rigorously test an argument, perform deep close reading, incorporate counter-evidence, and prepare visual materials to professional journal standards.

This function guides academic writers in transforming rich textual readings into a consequential, field-shaping argument suitable for major scholarly publications (like PMLA). It moves beyond mere description by structuring the core elements: a contestable thesis, the interpretive warrant, the critical move, and the broad implications (stakes) for the discipline. Use this when your reading has deep potential but lacks a clear, governing, and consequential claim.

This guide provides methodology for constructing academic arguments based on textual evidence and close reading, adhering to high scholarly standards like PMLA. It teaches users to analyze the text's language, form, syntax, and structure rather than merely summarizing content. Key principles include precise quoting, demonstrating the inference path directly from the passage, and accounting for counter-evidence to achieve deep academic rigor.

Evidence-first reading analyst that reconstructs a document's central claims, argument tree, and evidence ledger. Supports quick, deep, map, Feynman, and whole-book modes, plus critique, knowledge maps, and recall plans.

A comprehensive tool for deep, structured proofreading of French texts.
