What it does

Aaag Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for the Annals of the American Association of Geographers via ScholarOne Manuscripts — area/article-type selection, double-anonymous preparation, the 11,000-word inclusive cap, Chicago style, keywords, ORCID, and declarations. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `templates/checklist.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. | 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Double-anonymous preparation
  • 000-word inclusive cap

Example prompts

  • “/aaag-submission”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Aaag Submission loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 663 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~84
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for the Annals of the American Association of Geographers via ScholarOne Manuscripts — area/article-type selection, double-anonymous preparation, the 11,000-word inclusive cap, Chicago style, keywords, ORCID, and declarations. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Submission Preflight (aaag-submission)

The last check before pressing submit on ScholarOne Manuscripts. The Annals is double-anonymous and caps almost everything against the word limit, so the two most common avoidable failures are an under-anonymized manuscript and an over-length one. Verify volatile specifics on the official pages before relying on them (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准).

When to trigger

  • "Submitting tomorrow" — last pass before upload
  • Unsure which files/metadata ScholarOne expects, or which area/type to pick
  • Confirming the chosen type's cap is met and the manuscript is properly anonymized

Process facts (verify volatile items on the official page)

  • Owner / publisher: American Association of Geographers (AAG) / Taylor & Francis (Routledge).
  • Portal: ScholarOne Manuscripts (via the Taylor & Francis journal page).
  • Review model: double-anonymous for Articles, Special Issues, Forums, and Commentaries — by one to three referees, one of which is the editor or a designate. Commentary Responses get single-anonymous review. Anonymize the manuscript; provide a separate title page.
  • Areas (four + a cross-track): declare one — Geographic Methods; Human Geography; Nature and Society; Physical Geography, Earth, and Environmental Sciences — plus a General Geography / cross-disciplinary track. A subject editor leads each area (plus a Cartography Editor), all on four-year terms; your area routes the manuscript. Current area editors (verified 2026-06-22 via AAG announcements): Human Geography — Paul Adams (since Jan 2024); Nature and Society — Brian King (since Jan 2024); General Geography / cross-discipline — Rachel Franklin (since Jan 2025); Physical Geography, Earth & Environmental Sciences — Michaela Buenemann (since Jan 2025); Geographic Methods — Anthony Howell (since Jan 2026). Re-confirm on the AAG page, as terms rotate.
  • Article types & caps: Article (regular) ≤ 11,000 words (incl. abstract, references, notes, tables, figure captions); Forum intro 2,500 + papers 5,000 each, ≤ 25,000 total; Commentary < 2,000 incl. references; Special-Issue papers ~5,000 words. (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准)
  • Style: Chicago Manual of Style, author-date; abstract + 3-5 italicized, alphabetized keywords.
  • ORCID: provide for authors (Taylor & Francis standard; verify requirement).
  • Fee: no submission fee stated for standard articles; any open-access APC handled by Taylor & Francis after acceptance (待核实).

Preflight checklist

Area, type & length
  • Area declared (Geographic Methods / Human / Nature and Society / Physical, Earth & Environmental / General-cross)
  • Article type chosen and its cap met (Article ≤ 11,000 / Forum ≤ 25,000 / Commentary < 2,000 / Special-Issue ~5,000)
  • Total word count includes abstract, references, notes, tables, and figure captions
  • Abstract present + 3-5 keywords, italicized and alphabetized at the abstract's end
Anonymity (double-anonymous)
  • No author names, affiliations, or acknowledgments in the manuscript
  • No obvious self-references; self-citations neutralized
  • Identifying file metadata stripped; study-site detail not de-anonymizing
  • Separate (non-anonymous) title page prepared as a distinct file
Show full SKILL.md (257 more words)Show less
Format, exhibits & metadata
  • Chicago author-date formatting; consistent reference list
  • Maps/figures meet Graphics Guidelines (projection, legend, resolution) — see aaag-tables-figures
  • ORCID ready; cover letter notes the area and contribution
Compliance & data
  • Ethics / IRB / consent and geoprivacy handled (see aaag-transparency-and-data)
  • Data-availability statement drafted; provenance + CRS documented
  • Original work; preprint status checked against Taylor & Francis policy; AI-use policy reviewed

Geography-specific anonymity trap

Double-anonymous review is harder in geography because the study site can identify the author. A single-county study by the only group working there, named field stations, or distinctive local data can de-anonymize as effectively as a name in the header. Mitigations:

  • Generalize identifying site descriptors where the argument allows ("a mid-sized county in the US Southeast" rather than naming a tiny home county) — or note the unavoidable in the cover letter.
  • Cite your own prior fieldwork in that site in the third person; strip acknowledgments to funders/locals.
  • Remove GPS metadata and identifying coordinates from figures and attached files.

File set for ScholarOne (verify current requirements)

  • Anonymized main manuscript (no identifiers, clean metadata)
  • Separate, non-anonymous title page (authors, affiliations, ORCID, acknowledgments)
  • Figures/maps at required resolution per the Graphics Guidelines
  • Cover letter (area, contribution, fit); data-availability statement; any supplementary materials

Anti-patterns

  • Counting only the body and overrunning once captions/notes/tables/refs are added
  • Leaving author identifiers in text, acknowledgments, study-site detail, or file metadata
  • Submitting to the wrong area (lands with the wrong editor/reviewers)
  • Non-Chicago citations; missing or non-italicized keywords
  • Maps that fail the Graphics Guidelines (projection/legend/resolution)

Output format

【Area / type】GeogMethods/Human/Nature&Society/Physical-Earth-Env/General-cross · Article/Forum/Commentary/Special-Issue (cap met? Y/N)
【Word count】total incl. abstract/refs/notes/tables/captions vs. cap
