jais-topic-selectionA skill your agent uses when deciding whether a question fits the Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS) and which of its seven manuscript categories to target.
Jais Topic Selection is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when deciding whether a question fits the Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS) and which of its seven manuscript categories to target. Locks the IS phenomenon, the unit of analysis, and the category before theory work begins; it does not build the theory (jais-theory-development) or invent citations.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k 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 Research & Science, covering Citation management. 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.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
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.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Jais Topic Selection loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,076 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

.claude/skills/jais-topic-selection/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).JAIS rewards work where information systems / digital technology is theoretically load-bearing, not decorative. The about page describes JAIS as "inclusive in topics, level and unit of analysis, theory, method and philosophical and research approach" and says it "encourages theory based multi- or inter-disciplinary research" (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准). That pluralism is genuine — but it is theory-gated. A descriptive industry report or a pure machine-learning benchmark with no IS theory is a desk-reject regardless of execution quality. Ask: would an IS scholar in a different sub-tradition still learn something general about technology, organizations, or people from this?
JAIS's distinctive feature is that theory and review are first-class submission types, not afterthoughts. Choose deliberately — the category sets the bar your reviewers apply.
| Category (Senior Editor 待核实) | Choose it when… | The bar it sets |
|---|---|---|
| Research Articles | empirical, modeling, or design work testing/building theory; primary construct development is discouraged here | a rigorous, theory-grounded empirical or design contribution |
| Theory | the contribution is the theory — a new construct, a novel framework, or a novel integration of existing theories | original, generative theory about a novel IS/digital topic |
| Literature Reviews (SE Gregory Vial) | a structured synthesis that opens new directions, or theory development through review | a method-driven review with a forward-looking theoretical payoff |
| Research Perspectives (SE Dirk Hovorka, ~10,000 words) | you are questioning assumptions, critiquing the field, offering constructive guidance | a defensible, generative argument about the discipline |
| Foundational Research on Novel Digital Phenomena (SE Varun Grover) | a genuinely new digital phenomenon nobody has studied yet | disciplined description that yields new or pre-theoretical insight |
| Editorials (6,000–8,000 words) | typically invited commentary on gaps/practices | usually invited — confirm before targeting |
| Policy and Impact (SE Roman Beck, 5,000–7,000 words) | theorizing how IS research translates into policy | a credible research-to-policy bridge |
Most empirical/theory/review/foundational papers should stay under ~15,000 words — beyond that "are very likely to receive extra scrutiny from the editors and may be returned to be shortened," and manuscripts over 65 pages including everything will not be sent out for review (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准). Decide the category and its budget now, before you over-build.
JAIS's inclusiveness is often misread as "anything touching technology fits." It does not. The test is whether the information-technology artifact or digital phenomenon is doing theoretical work — whether removing it would collapse the contribution. A study where IT is merely the setting (e.g., "we surveyed employees who happen to use software") is not a JAIS topic no matter how clean the data; a study where a specific affordance of the technology drives the mechanism is. Run this test before committing: name the artifact, then ask what the paper would lose if you swapped it for a non-technological equivalent. If the answer is "nothing," reshape the topic before choosing a category.
The single most useful pre-submission discipline is answering "why JAIS?" against each near neighbor, because a wrong answer predicts a fit desk-reject. Use this map.
| If a reviewer says it reads like… | The real home might be… | The JAIS-defending move |
|---|---|---|
| a hard causal identification result with thin theory | ISR (INFORMS) | foreground the theoretical/conceptual payoff; consider Theory or Research Article with theory first |
| a polished IT-artifact build with light theory | MISQ (design-science identity) | sharpen the generalizable design knowledge; lean into JAIS's theory framing |
| an applied systems/economic-modeling study | JMIS | show the cross-disciplinary theoretical contribution, not just the model |
| a broad management/OR study not about IS | Management Science | confirm the IT artifact is load-bearing, or reroute |
| a literature summary with no forward theory | a review outlet without JAIS's two-genre bar | add method + theoretical destination (Literature Review category) |
If you cannot win the "why JAIS" argument for any category, the topic is not yet a JAIS topic — fix that before writing.
Suppose a team has rich field data on how a new decentralized-finance protocol changed lending behavior. The same evidence could anchor three different JAIS submissions, and the category choice changes everything downstream. As a Research Article, the payoff is a theory-tested empirical result about IT-enabled disintermediation — reviewers will demand identification and validity. As Foundational Research on Novel Digital Phenomena, the payoff is the first disciplined account of a genuinely new phenomenon, and over-theorizing too early would be a flaw; reviewers reward careful description and pre-theoretical insight. As a Theory paper, the data recede and a new construct (say, "algorithmic trust substitution") plus its nomological net becomes the contribution. Pick before you write: each route has a different Senior Editor, bar, and length budget.
