What it does

Jim Contribution Framing is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when articulating what a Journal of International Marketing (JIM) manuscript contributes — converting results into theory advances for international marketing and decisions for border-crossing managers, and defending against the "context extension" verdict. It frames the payoff; jim-writing-style polishes the prose.

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 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.

When your agent uses it

  • Defending against the context extension verdict
  • Tasks that involve Brand voice and tone

Example prompts

  • “context extension”
  • “/jim-contribution-framing”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Theory bar: the international dimension must have changed the theory. After your study, what do we now understand about the mechanism that…
  2. Managerial bar: a decision rule for firms operating across borders. JIM's founding mission (and the criterion behind its Cavusgil Award)…

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

Jim Contribution Framing loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 718 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~87
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.

Contribution Framing (jim-contribution-framing)

When to trigger

  • The findings are solid but the contribution paragraphs read as a results summary
  • Someone on the team describes the paper as "X, but international"
  • The implications section advises managers to "consider cultural differences"
  • An Insight-format submission (<4,000 words) must justify itself on one finding

JIM's double gate

A JIM contribution has to clear two bars at once, and the first is the journal's signature:

  1. Theory bar: the international dimension must have changed the theory. After your study, what do we now understand about the mechanism that a purely domestic research program could never have revealed? Acceptable shapes: a boundary condition that redraws where a "universal" mechanism holds; a reconciliation of conflicting country-specific findings via a theorized moderator; a construct or mechanism that only exists across borders (globalness perceptions, psychic distance, export capabilities). If the honest answer is "the theory survived intact in more countries," you have a robustness note, not a JIM contribution — return to jim-theory-development.
  2. Managerial bar: a decision rule for firms operating across borders. JIM's founding mission (and the criterion behind its Cavusgil Award) is advancing international marketing practice. The implication must name the decision — enter or wait, standardize or adapt, which appeal in which market profile, how to allocate across subsidiaries — and attach the magnitude and the country conditions under which it holds.

Write the contribution ledger before the discussion section

FindingWhat it changes in theoryWhose decision it changesUnder which country conditions
(each headline result)the stream + the specific revisionCMO / export manager / brand manager / platform sellerdimension profile, not country names

Rows with an empty theory cell are results, not contributions; rows with an empty decision cell are academic trivia by JIM's standards. Two or three complete rows beat six padded ones.

Phrase the country conditions as profiles, not passports

The generalization engine of a JIM paper is the dimension, not the sampled countries. Frame implications as "in markets with weak contract institutions and high collectivism…" rather than "in Vietnam…" — this converts a two-country study into guidance for the dozens of unsampled markets that share the profile, and it is the honest scope of what the design identified. State the boundary of the license too: which profiles the data cannot speak to.

Defenses against the standard verdicts

  • "Context extension." Show the theory-revision cell of the ledger: name the prediction that failed, the boundary that moved, or the inconsistency that resolved. If reviewers can delete the theory section without losing the results, the framing has not done this.
  • "Managerial implications are generic." Ban sentences convertible to any paper ("managers should be aware of culture"). Each implication needs an actor, an action, a magnitude, and a condition.
  • "Why should domestic-marketing scholars care?" One paragraph exporting the insight back: what the cross-national evidence reveals about the mechanism everywhere (e.g., the domestic effect was a special case of a broader institutional contingency).
  • "The finding is obvious." Show the counterfactual prediction a reasonable scholar would have made from the domestic canon — and that your data reject it.

Insight papers

JIM's short format (under 4,000 words, all inclusive; expedited review — re-check current terms on the AMA guidelines page) trades depth for one sharp, decision-relevant finding. The framing discipline tightens: a single ledger row, stated in the first paragraph, with the managerial decision rule as the headline and theory positioned in two paragraphs at most. Do not compress a rejected full paper into the format; the genre is different, not smaller.

Checklist

  • Ledger complete: every claimed contribution has theory cell + decision cell + condition cell
  • The international dimension demonstrably changed the theory (not just the sample)
  • Implications phrased as dimension profiles with named actors, actions, magnitudes
  • Scope boundary stated: which market profiles the design cannot license
  • The "export back to domestic theory" paragraph drafted
  • Contribution claims match what the invariance evidence licenses (no mean-difference claims without scalar support)
  • Insight submissions carry exactly one ledger row, stated up front

Anti-patterns

  • "We extend X to the international context" as the lead contribution sentence
  • Managerial implications that name no actor, no action, no number, and no condition
  • Generalizing from two sampled countries to "global markets" without dimension-profile framing
  • Contribution inflation: five bullets restating one finding
  • Claiming a cross-national theory contribution the invariance results quietly revoked
  • Advice managers already follow, presented as news

Output format

text
【Theory advance】the mechanism revision only cross-border evidence could reveal
【Ledger】N complete rows (finding → theory → decision → condition)
