What it does

Agsy Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for Agricultural Systems (AgSy) via the current Elsevier submission path / Editorial Manager — article-type selection, abstract <= 250 words, Highlights, graphical abstract, CRediT and declaration-of-interest statements, funding/AI disclosures, reference style, and data/code/model availability. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

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

  • Abstract <= 250 words
  • Graphical abstract
  • CRediT and declaration-of-interest statements
  • Funding/AI disclosures

Example prompts

  • “/agsy-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

Agsy Submission loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 101 tokens; SKILL.md has 698 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~101
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

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.

description
Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for Agricultural Systems (AgSy) via the current Elsevier submission path / Editorial Manager — article-type selection, abstract <= 250 words, Highlights, graphical abstract, CRediT and declaration-of-interest statements, funding/AI disclosures, reference style, and data/code/model availability. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Submission Preflight (agsy-submission)

The last check before pressing submit through the current Elsevier submission path / Editorial Manager. AgSy is single anonymized, so there is no manuscript-anonymization step — but the front matter (abstract, Highlights, graphical abstract, declarations) and the data/code/model availability statement are where avoidable failures happen. Live-check volatile specifics on the official page before relying on them.

When to trigger

  • "Submitting tomorrow" — last pass before upload
  • Unsure which files/metadata Editorial Manager expects
  • Confirming the article type's guideline length is met and all front matter is prepared

Process facts (source map refreshed 2026-06-20)

  • Publisher: Elsevier (ISSN 0308-521X print / 1873-2267 online).
  • Portal: current ScienceDirect Submit your article link / Editorial Manager path.
  • Review model: single anonymized — no manuscript anonymization required.
  • Article types: Research paper (~8,000 words), Short communication (~4,000), Perspective (~2,000, rapid review), Comment (~1,000), Review — no hard word cap, but stay near the guideline.
  • Consultation: Review, Perspective, and book-review submissions should be discussed with editors first where the Guide requires it.
  • Abstract: ≤ 250 words.
  • Highlights: required at submission; 3-5 bullets, each max 85 characters including spaces.
  • Graphical abstract: required as a separate file; check the current pixel/format specs before upload.
  • Declarations: CRediT author-contribution statement; declaration of competing interest; funding sources; generative-AI disclosure when AI tools were used.
  • Data/code/model: Option C repository deposit + dataset citation/link + data-availability statement, or a reason sharing is not possible.
  • Fee: Open Access APC USD 3,850 excluding taxes; subscription route has no publication fee charged to authors (verified 2026-06-22; re-check the live ScienceDirect figure before submission).

Preflight checklist

Article type & length
  • Article type chosen; length near its guideline (research ~8,000 / short comm ~4,000 / perspective ~2,000 / comment ~1,000)
  • Abstract ≤ 250 words; states purpose, principal results, major conclusions
  • Highlights drafted (3-5 bullets, max 85 characters each); graphical abstract prepared
Systems content (fit)
  • The systems question (interactions / hierarchical levels / trade-offs) is explicit
  • Model described, calibrated, and independently evaluated; sensitivity/uncertainty reported
  • Decision / management / policy relevance stated (see agsy-impact-and-implications)
Format & declarations
  • References in the journal's style; consistent throughout
  • CRediT roles + declaration of competing interest completed
  • Funding and AI-use disclosures complete; corresponding author and contact details correct
  • Figures/tables self-contained and accessible (see agsy-figures-and-tables)
Data, code & compliance
  • Data + code + model deposited; data-availability statement in the manuscript (see agsy-reproducibility-and-data-policy)
  • Ethics / funding / conflict declarations complete
  • Original work; preprint status checked against Elsevier sharing policy

Anti-patterns

  • Abstract over 250 words; missing Highlights or graphical abstract
  • No CRediT / competing-interest statement; missing funding or AI-use disclosure where required
  • A single-factor field trial sent to a systems journal (fit failure — see agsy-review-process)
  • A black-box model with no calibration/evaluation or no data/code/model deposit
  • Sending a full study to the Perspective track (wrong type and length)
Show full SKILL.md (266 more words)Show less

Worked micro-example (illustrative)

A crop–livestock simulation study with scenario analysis is readied for upload; the preflight catches three avoidable failures:

  • Abstract = 268 words → over the 250 cap. Trimmed to 242 by cutting two methods sentences and one caveat, keeping purpose, principal result, and the trade-off conclusion.
  • No graphical abstract → a conceptual crop–livestock system diagram is prepared, satisfying the requirement and doubling as the framing exhibit.
  • Model deposited, run scripts not → Elsevier counts code and models as research data, so run scripts and parameter files are added to the deposit and the data-availability statement links the DOI, pre-empting a late reproducibility hold (see agsy-review-process).

Result: a clean upload rather than three Editorial Manager bounce-backs.

Desk-reject patterns this preflight catches

  • Fit failure. A single-factor field trial with no interactions, model, or trade-off reads as an agronomy paper at a systems journal — reframe via agsy-topic-selection or re-route.
  • Black-box model. No version, calibration, evaluation, or deposit → the model cannot be assessed.
  • Wrong track. A full study compressed into Perspective length, or a Perspective padded into a research paper — type/length mismatch is an early screen.
  • Incomplete front matter. Missing Highlights, graphical abstract, CRediT, COI, funding, or AI-use disclosure stalls the submission before review starts.

Calibration anchors

  • The ≤250-word abstract, 3-5 Highlights, graphical abstract, CRediT roles, competing-interest declaration, funding disclosure, AI-use disclosure, and Option C data statement are the current pre-submission checks.
  • Re-open the ScienceDirect Submit your article link and Guide for Authors before upload because URLs, fees, and file specs can change.
