- v1 fell through because it required pre-converted PDF in zip
- v2: convert all .eps files post-extract via gs -dSAFER
- 15s timeout per file; fail per-file, not blocking
- Size guards: 20MB per file warning, 100MB total abort
- Conversion log written to output.log
- Verified on real MDPI official zip → 7-page PDF
v1 lesson: test sample had pre-converted PDF but real zip does not
- Remove '3-8 major' quota that made accept/minor_revision unreachable
- Add recommend_engine.py: rule-based R0-R5 + tier-parameterized judgment
- Journal tier (1/2/3) from journals.json review_tier field
- LLM no longer outputs recommendation; engine is single source of truth
- Rationale exposed in API and rendered in PresubmitPanel
- Weak draft still major_revision (R1); strong draft now minor_revision (R5)
