The manuscript didn't conform to the required JOSS section structure. Reorganized to: Summary → Statement of need → State of the field → Software design → Research impact statement → AI usage disclosure → Acknowledgements → References.

  • Removed "Implementation" and "Availability" sections — content redistributed into appropriate surviving sections
  • New "State of the field" section — assembled from the existing-tools comparison (previously in Statement of need) and the "Build vs. Contribute" subsection (previously in Software Design)
  • Consolidated "Software design" — merged old Implementation (architecture, patterns, integrations, I/O) with old Software Design (design philosophy, trade-offs)
  • Merged availability info into Summary — condensed to a single sentence
  • Reordered AI usage disclosure before Acknowledgements (was after)
  • Standardized heading capitalization to sentence case throughout
Original prompt

The document paper/paper.md is intended as a submission to JOSS but it (still) does not have the right format. Please rework the manuscript so that it has the following sections:

  • Summary
  • Statement of need
  • State of the field
  • Software design
  • Research impact statement
  • AI usage disclosure
  • Acknowledgements
  • References
