What it does

Amann Proposal Framing is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when writing the short proposal that gates an Academy of Management Annals (Annals) review — the ≤5-page, four-heading proposal submitted under the twice-yearly deadlines before any full review is invited. Builds the proposal; it does not gather the literature (amann-literature-synthesis) or run the portal preflight (amann-submission).

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Sales & Support, covering Proposals and quotes. 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

  • Writing the short proposal that gates an Academy of Management Annals (Annals) review — the ≤5-page
  • Four-heading proposal submitted under the twice-yearly deadlines before any full review is invited

Example prompts

  • “/amann-proposal-framing”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Focus of the review — the literature and the animating problem.
  2. Related reviews — what reviews already exist and why yours is not redundant.
  3. Review scope and process — boundaries, inclusion logic, how you will gather and synthesize the corpus.
  4. New insights — the integrative contribution, the "attitude," and the agenda the review will produce.

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

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • mc.manuscriptcentral.com

    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

Amann Proposal Framing loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 674 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~91
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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 writing the short proposal that gates an Academy of Management Annals (Annals) review — the ≤5-page, four-heading proposal submitted under the twice-yearly deadlines before any full review is invited. Builds the proposal; it does not gather the literature (amann-literature-synthesis) or run the portal preflight (amann-submission).

Proposal Framing — the Gate (amann-proposal-framing)

When to trigger

  • The literature passed amann-topic-selection and you are ready to approach Annals
  • You need to know exactly what the proposal must contain and how long it can be
  • You are about to write a full review — stop: at Annals the proposal is mandatory and comes first
  • An April 1 / October 1 deadline is approaching and the proposal is the deliverable

How Annals intake actually works (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准)

Annals uses a two-step, proposal-first process. You do not submit a full review cold; you submit a short proposal, and only an accepted proposal is invited to develop into a full article.

  • Proposal length. No longer than 5 pages, single-spaced, 1-inch margins, 12-point font; references and visual elements do not count toward the limit.
  • Four required sections, with these exact headings:
    1. Focus of the review — the literature and the animating problem.
    2. Related reviews — what reviews already exist and why yours is not redundant.
    3. Review scope and process — boundaries, inclusion logic, how you will gather and synthesize the corpus.
    4. New insights — the integrative contribution, the "attitude," and the agenda the review will produce.
  • Deadlines. Proposals are accepted on a twice-yearly cycle — April 1 and October 1. Submissions are not reviewed until the deadline passes; decision letters arrive ~6 weeks after the deadline.
  • Who reviews the proposal. Proposals are double-blind peer-reviewed by the Associate Editors. (The invited full review later forgoes double-blind and is read only by the AE and Editor — see amann-review-process.)
  • Portal. Submit via Manuscript Central: https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/aomannals. A current CV may be requested for the editors' eyes only — confirm at submission time (待核实).

The ≤5-page proposal is the single most consequential document in the Annals lifecycle: it is the gate. A strong proposal earns an invitation before you sink months into reading and drafting; a weak one ends the project regardless of how good the eventual review would have been. Treat it as a high-stakes argument, not an outline.

What each heading must accomplish

HeadingWhat it must doCommon failure
Focus of the reviewName the literature and the problem with the field (from amann-topic-selection), not just the topicA topic label ("a review of X") with no problem
Related reviewsShow command of prior reviews and stake the delta — what yours does that none didClaiming "no review exists" instead of differentiating from the ones that do
Review scope and processState boundaries, inclusion/exclusion logic, databases, and the synthesis method (narrative / systematic / bibliometric)Vague "we will read the literature" with no transparent process
New insightsLead with the integrative framework and the agenda — the new way of seeing the field, with attitudeA promise of "comprehensive coverage" and no new organizing idea

The center of gravity is New insights: Associate Editors are deciding whether this review will reorganize the field, not whether it will summarize it. A proposal that nails coverage but offers no framework is the most common proposal-stage reject.

Checklist

  • Proposal is ≤5 pages, single-spaced, 1-inch margins, 12pt (refs/visuals excluded)
  • Uses the four required headings verbatim: Focus / Related reviews / Review scope and process / New insights
  • "Focus" states a problem with the field, not a topic label
  • "Related reviews" differentiates from existing reviews (delta), not "none exists"
  • "Review scope and process" names boundaries, inclusion logic, databases, and synthesis method
  • "New insights" leads with the integrative framework + agenda + the critical "attitude"
  • Targeted at the correct April 1 / October 1 window
  • Balance addressed if you are a contributor to the literature
  • Portal, CV requirement, and any current specifics re-confirmed (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准 / 待核实)

Anti-patterns

  • Writing the full ~50-page review and trying to submit it — Annals invites full reviews only after proposal acceptance
  • A proposal that is a chapter outline with no integrative idea under "New insights"
  • "Related reviews" that asserts novelty by ignoring the reviews that already exist (reviewers will name them)
  • A "Review scope and process" section with no inclusion logic or named databases (looks unsystematic)
  • Promising comprehensive coverage as if coverage alone were the contribution
  • Missing the deadline and assuming rolling intake
