What it does

Jim Workflow is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when starting or unblocking a Journal of International Marketing (JIM) manuscript and you need to pick the right jim- sub-skill for the current stage, from first idea through the response letter. It routes to the specialist skills; it does not do their work.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

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

  • Unblocking a Journal of International Marketing (JIM) manuscript and you need to pick the right jim- sub-skill for the current stage
  • From first idea through the response letter

Example prompts

  • “/jim-workflow”

Workflow steps

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

  1. jim-topic-selection — verify the border-crossing is doing theoretical work
  2. jim-theory-development — theorize the cross-national mechanism a priori
  3. jim-literature-positioning — stake the claim in the international marketing canon
  4. jim-methods — design the multi-country study: sampling, translation, invariance plan
  5. jim-data-analysis — invariance tests, multilevel/SEM estimation, country effects
  6. jim-contribution-framing — the theory payoff plus the cross-border managerial payoff
  7. jim-tables-figures — invariance table, country descriptives, model figure, page budget
  8. jim-writing-style — 200-word abstract and intro written last
  9. jim-submission — ScholarOne two-file preflight
  10. jim-review-process — calibrate expectations while under review
  11. jim-rebuttal — after the decision letter

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 Workflow loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 623 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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.

JIM Workflow Router (jim-workflow)

Overview

Router skill for manuscripts aimed at the Journal of International Marketing (JIM) — the American Marketing Association's specialist top journal for international marketing, published quarterly by SAGE (ISSN 1069-031X print / 1547-7215 online; founded 1993 by S. Tamer Cavusgil). Editor-in-Chief: Ayşegül Özsomer (Koç University), in office since 2024 — re-check the masthead on ama.org before relying on it (checked 2026-07-16). Submission runs through ScholarOne (mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ama_jim), review is double-anonymized, the abstract cap is 200 words, and the whole manuscript — title through print appendices — must fit 50 formatted pages.

What makes JIM unlike its AMA siblings (JM, JMR, JPP&M) is a single gate every paper must clear: the international dimension has to be the theoretical engine, not the setting. Crossing a border must change the theory — through cultural, institutional, or economic variation across countries — and the empirics must earn cross-national comparison, usually via multi-country data with measurement invariance evidence. A solid domestic study relabeled "…in emerging markets" is the house desk-reject.

When to trigger

  • A user asks "where do I start?" or "what's next?" on a JIM-bound project
  • A draft is stuck and nobody can name the binding constraint
  • The team is debating JIM vs. JIBS, International Marketing Review, or Journal of Marketing
  • A decision letter from JIM has arrived and revision work needs sequencing
  • Someone proposes adding a second country "for the reviewers" — a routing question in disguise

Default order

  1. jim-topic-selection — verify the border-crossing is doing theoretical work
  2. jim-theory-development — theorize the cross-national mechanism a priori
  3. jim-literature-positioning — stake the claim in the international marketing canon
  4. jim-methods — design the multi-country study: sampling, translation, invariance plan
  5. jim-data-analysis — invariance tests, multilevel/SEM estimation, country effects
  6. jim-contribution-framing — the theory payoff plus the cross-border managerial payoff
  7. jim-tables-figures — invariance table, country descriptives, model figure, page budget
  8. jim-writing-style — 200-word abstract and intro written last
  9. jim-submission — ScholarOne two-file preflight
  10. jim-review-process — calibrate expectations while under review
  11. jim-rebuttal — after the decision letter

Loop back freely: a failed scalar-invariance test at step 5 often forces a return to step 4 (or even step 2, if only partial invariance survives and the theory leaned on mean comparisons).

else:                            -> jim-topic-selection

Anti-patterns

  • Sending a single-country paper to JIM because the sample "happens to be foreign" — the classic desk reject
  • Treating culture as a post-hoc explanation for a surprise result instead of a hypothesized construct
  • Polishing prose or exhibits while the invariance evidence is still unsettled
  • Confusing JIM with JIBS (general international business) or IMR — the boundary is a positioning task, not a coin flip
  • Citing the editor, portal, or page limits from memory instead of re-checking ama.org / the SAGE author page
