What it does

Jim Rebuttal is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when responding to a Journal of International Marketing (JIM) decision letter — triaging reviewer demands, deciding whether to collect new-country data, and writing the point-by-point response. It manages the revision round; the upstream skills execute the actual fixes.

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 Research & Science, covering Peer review. 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

  • Responding to a Journal of International Marketing (JIM) decision letter — triaging reviewer demands
  • Deciding whether to collect new-country data
  • Writing the point-by-point response

Example prompts

  • “/jim-rebuttal”

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 Rebuttal loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 722 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
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.

Revision & Response Strategy (jim-rebuttal)

When to trigger

  • A JIM major/minor revision (or reject-and-resubmit) letter has arrived
  • Reviewers demand new countries, invariance re-tests, or identification repairs and the team must decide what to concede
  • Reviewers contradict each other about the paper's core
  • The response letter is drafted but reads as defensive point-scoring

First pass: decode the letter

Read the AE's letter twice before the reviews once — at AMA journals the AE synthesis tells you which reviewer comments are binding and which are optional color. Extract: (1) the must-do list the AE endorses; (2) the paper-threatening comments (identification, invariance, contribution) vs. the effort comments (additional analyses, exposition); (3) the disagreements the AE expects you to adjudicate. Build the master grid: comment → owner skill → planned action → concede/counter → evidence needed.

The demands JIM revisions typically turn on

  • "Add another country / sample." Decide on theory, not appeasement. Concede when the added country genuinely extends the dimension's range or breaks a confound the reviewer correctly spotted. Counter when the contrast already identifies the claim — show why with the confound audit from jim-methods, and offer a boundary-condition acknowledgment instead. New-country collection costs months; say so transparently and propose the timeline if you commit.
  • "Your invariance evidence is insufficient." Almost always concede and upgrade: full ladder table, partial-invariance handling, alignment for many groups, and a restatement of which comparisons the results license (jim-data-analysis). If scalar invariance fails on re-test, renegotiate the framing honestly rather than hiding the casualty.
  • "Culture is asserted, not measured." Add the individual-level cultural measure or the country-dimension moderation test; if the data cannot support it, reframe claims to institutional or development mechanisms actually measured (jim-theory-development).
  • "Endogeneity of the international choice." Export/entry decisions are selected; respond with design-based fixes (selection models, FE, shock-based variation) plus a sensitivity analysis, not with a paragraph of reassurance.
  • "Contribution is incremental." Rebuild the ledger (jim-contribution-framing) and show which prediction from the domestic canon the data reject. This is a framing battle — win it with a sharper theory delta, not adjectives.
  • A regional expert disputes your country narrative. Treat as a gift: correct the institutional detail, cite regional sources, and show the result survives the corrected reading.

Revise first, then write

Sequence the work: run every new analysis and settle the manuscript before polishing the letter — a response drafted around unfinished analyses drifts into promises. Keep a revision log (file, section, change, reason) so the summary-of-changes writes itself.

Show full SKILL.md (324 more words)Show less

Response-letter craft

  • Open with a one-page summary of the major changes, keyed to the AE's must-do list.
  • Reproduce every comment verbatim, numbered (AE.1, R1.1…); answer each with: the change made, where (page/section), and the evidence. Quote the revised passage in the letter — do not force reviewers to hunt.
  • Concessions: gracious and complete ("The reviewer is right; we re-estimated… results in new Table 5"). Counters: respectful, evidence-first, and rare — three strong counters read as confidence; ten read as obstinacy.
  • When R1 and R2 conflict, name the conflict, state your resolution, and anchor it to the AE's guidance.
  • Every new analysis goes in the manuscript or Web Appendix, not only in the letter — the letter is not part of the published record.
  • Keep the letter anonymous too: no author names, no identifying project details.
  • Mind the caps: revisions must still fit 50 pages; big additions displace something (jim-tables-figures prunes).

Round-two discipline

Address exactly what round one asked; introduce nothing new that was not requested — new material reopens review. If the AE added conditions in round two, treat them as the entire job. A conditional accept means execute the conditions verbatim and resist last-minute "improvements."

Checklist

  • AE synthesis decoded; must-do list separated from optional color
  • Master grid built: every comment → action → owner skill → evidence
  • New-country/new-study decisions made on theory and cost, stated transparently
  • All analyses finished before the letter was polished
  • Every comment reproduced and answered with page-referenced changes
  • Counters limited to genuinely defensible points, evidence attached
  • Revised manuscript still inside the 50-page cap; letter anonymized

Anti-patterns

  • Answering the AE's synthesis with silence while over-serving a tangential reviewer
  • Collecting a token extra country that extends nothing but the timeline
  • Hiding a failed invariance re-test behind a footnote
  • "We thank the reviewer for this excellent comment" followed by no change
  • Fighting every point — or conceding every point, including wrong ones
  • Burying new results in the response letter where readers of the journal will never see them
