getreadystack/manuscript-disclosure-lint repository overview

⁠Manuscript Disclosure Lint

16 rules that catch the statements a journal desk-rejects you for — in your .tex or .md, before you submit

⁠Run

docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/work getreadystack/manuscript-disclosure-lint /work/file

The same 16 rules as the VS Code extension, in a container. Mount a folder on /work.

⁠Free

• Check the manuscript open in your editor against all 16 rules. On the sample paper in _fixtures/dirty.tex it returns 14 findings, 9 of them errors, each pinned to a line with the wording to paste. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is limited.
• --rules lists every rule

⁠With a licence ($29 once)

• Sweep every .tex and .md in the workspace with the same 16 rules and keep a dated submission-readiness report file — one file to a whole thesis, a lab back catalogue or a CI seat. $29 once, 7-day refund. Scope and ownership are the only difference; the free file check is never capped.

docker run --rm -e READYSTACK_LICENSE=<key> -v "$PWD":/work getreadystack/manuscript-disclosure-lint --dir /work --ci

Commercial manuscript formatting and submission-compliance services are priced at $150-$400 per paper; this is the same checklist as a file you run yourself.
