What it does

Amann Writing Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when revising an Academy of Management Annals (Annals) review for the house voice — authoritative, integrative, agenda-setting "reviews with an attitude," with a strong problem-first opening and a contribution-stating abstract. Polishes prose and structure; it does not design the framework (amann-organizing-framework) or run the submission preflight (amann-submission).

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k 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 Writing & Content, covering Brand voice and tone. 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.

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

Amann Writing Style loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 99 tokens; SKILL.md has 670 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~99
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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 revising an Academy of Management Annals (Annals) review for the house voice — authoritative, integrative, agenda-setting "reviews with an attitude," with a strong problem-first opening and a contribution-stating abstract. Polishes prose and structure; it does not design the framework (amann-organizing-framework) or run the submission preflight (amann-submission).

Annals Writing Style — "Reviews with an Attitude" (amann-writing-style)

When to trigger

  • The framework and evidence appraisal are settled and it is time to make the review read well
  • The draft is descriptive and balanced but has no voice, no position, no agenda
  • The opening buries the field's problem under throat-clearing or method machinery
  • The abstract reads like a paper abstract ("we find…") rather than a review abstract

The Annals voice: authoritative + integrative + has attitude

Annals is read by management and organization scholars across subfields, plus allied audiences (organizational psychology, sociology of organizations). The voice is that of a trusted, fair expert who has read the whole field and is willing to say what it got right, what it got wrong, and what to do next. Four qualities define it:

  1. Authoritative. Confident judgments about what is known, contested, and how good the evidence is. The reader wants the author's appraisal, not neutrality-as-evasion — but authority is earned by comprehensiveness and balance, never asserted.
  2. Has attitude. This is the Annals signature. The review takes a critical, potentially provocative position grounded in the evidence: it names the field's blind spots, over-studied questions, and conceptual confusions. A balanced, accurate, positionless review is the most common stylistic miss.
  3. Integrative, not descriptive. Sentences make streams talk to each other ("Whereas the X tradition treats … as …, the Y stream implies …"), reorganizing the field rather than touring it stream by stream.
  4. Agenda-setting. The review points forward. The payoff is what becomes researchable after it — propositions, open questions, a future-research roadmap tied to the framework's empty cells.

The Annals opening arc

An Annals introduction differs from a research-paper intro and even from a generic review:

frame the field and its problem (what it studies, and the specific way it is fragmented/contradictory/confused) → why a review is needed now (a wave of work, a method shift, a hardened debate) → the organizing framework (the new way of seeing the field — the map the reader is given) → the position and the agenda (the "attitude" and what the review will conclude the field should do) → roadmap (brief).

State the framework and the position early. A review that withholds its organizing idea to a final section wastes the reader's time and reads as indecisive — the opposite of "attitude."

The abstract

A review abstract describes what the review does for the field: the literature, why a review now, the integrative framework, the critical position, and the agenda. Avoid "we hypothesize / we find a coefficient…"; that is a primary-paper abstract. (Confirm any length/format limits at submission via amann-submission; 待核实.)

Length and the reader's stamina

Annals reviews are long (~50 pages of text; 检索于 2026-06;以官网为准), and length is a privilege, not a license. Every section must earn its pages by advancing the argument about the field; confirmatory coverage (the lower tiers of amann-evidence-standards) belongs in compact citation clusters, not paragraph-length summaries. Use strong section architecture that mirrors the framework, periodic "where we are / where we go next" cues, and subsection summaries so a reader who puts the review down can re-enter without rereading.

Checklist

  • Opening follows the arc: field+problem → why now → framework → position+agenda → roadmap
  • The framework and the critical position are stated early, not withheld to the end
  • The review has attitude: it names blind spots / over-studied questions / confusions, grounded in evidence
  • Prose integrates (streams in dialogue), not describes (stream-by-stream tour)
  • A forward-looking agenda is explicit and tied to the framework's gaps
  • Technical material introduced intuition-first; jargon defined or avoided for cross-subfield readers
  • Section architecture mirrors the framework; periodic signposting present
  • Abstract describes the review's contribution to the field, not a single finding

Anti-patterns

  • The annotated-bibliography drone: "Smith (2010) found… Jones (2012) found…" with no connective argument
  • A balanced, accurate, positionless review — coverage without the Annals "attitude"
  • Opening with method/notation before the field's problem and stakes
  • Withholding the framework or the conclusions until the final section
  • Closing with a generic "more research is needed" instead of a structured, framework-tied agenda
  • A primary-paper abstract ("we find…") on a review; neutrality-as-evasion in place of appraisal
