What it does

Jama Internal Medicine is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when targeting JAMA Internal Medicine or deciding whether an internal-medicine clinical study fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the clinical-evidence and methodological-rigor bar, reporting-guideline and trial-registration requirements, JAMA Network house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics. Venue-fit aid only, not clinical advice.

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.

It sits in Research & Science, covering Clinical and healthcare research. 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

  • Targeting JAMA Internal Medicine
  • Deciding whether an internal-medicine clinical study fits this venue

Example prompts

  • “/jama-internal-medicine”

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

Jama Internal Medicine loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 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
~100
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.

JAMA Internal Medicine (jama-internal-medicine)

Journal positioning

JAMA Internal Medicine is a JAMA Network specialty journal for clinical research, evidence synthesis, and health-policy scholarship relevant to the practice of adult internal medicine. It favors rigorous, clinically important work — randomized trials, high-quality comparative-effectiveness and observational studies, and analyses that challenge low-value care or inform practice and policy — with a strong emphasis on methodological soundness and direct relevance to patient care and clinical decision making. Underpowered single-center studies, descriptive case series, and analyses with no clear practice implication are a weak fit. This skill is a fit / venue-selection / re-framing aid; it is not clinical or regulatory advice and does not replace the journal's current instructions for authors. Before submitting, re-check the live JAMA Internal Medicine author instructions.

When to trigger

  • The author names JAMA Internal Medicine for an internal-medicine clinical or health-services study and wants a fit/framing check.
  • A clinical study must be re-framed around a clear practice-changing or policy-relevant question for a general internal-medicine readership.
  • The author is choosing between JAMA Internal Medicine, JAMA, and a subspecialty journal.
  • The author needs the journal's reporting-guideline, registration, and desk-reject expectations.

Scope & topic fit

  • Randomized clinical trials in adult internal medicine, including pragmatic and de-implementation ("less is more") trials.
  • Comparative-effectiveness, cohort, and large database studies with rigorous design and confounding control.
  • Diagnostic, screening, and prognostic studies with clinically meaningful endpoints.
  • Health-policy, quality, value-of-care, and health-services research relevant to internal medicine.
  • Systematic reviews and meta-analyses that answer a focused clinical question.

Method & evidence bar

  • Studies must be adequately powered with prespecified, patient-centered primary outcomes; surrogate-only endpoints need strong justification.
  • The applicable reporting guideline must be followed and its checklist supplied: CONSORT for trials, STROBE for observational studies, PRISMA for systematic reviews.
  • Trials require prospective registration; the trial-registration number and a protocol/statistical-analysis plan are expected.
  • Observational claims must address confounding, bias, and missing data explicitly; causal language must match the design.
  • Effect estimates should be reported with confidence intervals and absolute as well as relative measures; clinical (not just statistical) significance must be argued.

Structure & house style

  • JAMA Network format with a structured abstract and a Key Points box; re-check current article types (Original Investigation, Research Letter, etc.) and limits on the live guide.
  • The introduction frames a focused clinical question and its importance; the discussion states the practice or policy implication plainly.
  • Tables/figures follow JAMA Network statistical-reporting standards; a CONSORT/STROBE flow diagram is expected where applicable.
  • Supplements carry the protocol, full statistical methods, and additional analyses.

Official-submission checklist

  • Before giving submission-ready advice, read ../../resources/source-basis.md and ../../resources/official-source-map.md; start from the ICMJE and JAMA Network anchors, then cite the current JAMA Internal Medicine page you checked.
  • Search the live site for "JAMA Internal Medicine instructions for authors" and follow the current version.
  • Re-check article types and word/reference/table limits, structured-abstract and Key Points format, and the JAMA Network statistical-reporting requirements.
  • Confirm trial registration, the reporting checklist (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA), data-sharing statement, and protocol/SAP submission.
  • Re-check IRB/ethics and consent statements, ICMJE authorship and conflict-of-interest disclosure, funding, and AI-use disclosure.
  • If the live official instructions conflict with this skill, the official instructions win.

Pre-submission self-check

  • The study answers a focused, clinically important question with a clear practice or policy implication.
  • The primary outcome is prespecified and patient-centered; the study is adequately powered.
  • The correct reporting checklist (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA) is completed and attached.
  • Trials are prospectively registered with the number in the manuscript; protocol/SAP provided.
  • Confounding, bias, and missing data are addressed, and causal language matches the design.
  • IRB/consent, ICMJE disclosures, and a data-sharing statement are prepared.

Common desk-reject triggers

  • Underpowered or single-center studies with limited generalizability and no clear practice change.
  • Observational analyses with inadequate confounding control or overstated causal claims.
  • Missing trial registration, protocol, or the required reporting checklist.
  • Surrogate-only endpoints presented as clinically definitive.
  • Narrow subspecialty interest better served by a specialty journal, or limited general-internal-medicine relevance.

Re-routing decision

  • Practice-changing, broadly significant trial → general medicine (jama / NEJM / The Lancet in the natural-science bundle).
  • Oncology focus → jama-oncology / annals-of-oncology.
  • Cardiology / neurology / nephrology subspecialty → jama-cardiology / jama-neurology / journal-of-the-american-society-of-nephrology.
  • Population-health or policy intervention → the-lancet-public-health.
  • Psychiatry / surgery focus → jama-psychiatry / jama-surgery.
