What it does

Jue Rebuttal is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when a Journal of Urban Economics (JUE) decision letter (R&R or reject-and-resubmit) needs a response-letter strategy and a revision plan. Turns referee reports into a point-by-point response and routes the analytical work back through the pack; it does not run the new analysis itself.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k 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.

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

Jue Rebuttal loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 919 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~76
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

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.

description
Use when a Journal of Urban Economics (JUE) decision letter (R&R or reject-and-resubmit) needs a response-letter strategy and a revision plan. Turns referee reports into a point-by-point response and routes the analytical work back through the pack; it does not run the new analysis itself.

Rebuttal Strategy (jue-rebuttal)

When to trigger

  • A JUE R&R or major-revision letter arrived and you need a response plan
  • Referees raised spatial objections (sorting, spillover, scale, spatial SEs) you must now answer with evidence
  • Referees disagree with each other or with the editor and you must triage
  • You are deciding which requests to satisfy, which to push back on, and which to defer
  • A reject-and-resubmit invites a re-engineered design and you must scope it

Read the editor first, then the referees

The editor's letter, not the longest referee report, sets the bar. JUE editors (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准) signal which concerns are binding for acceptance and which are advisory. Build the plan around the binding spatial concerns; do not exhaust effort on a referee's cosmetic asks while the editor's identification worry goes half-answered.

Triage every comment

Comment typeResponse
Binding identification/spatial concern (sorting, SUTVA, spatial SEs)new analysis routed to jue-identification / jue-robustness; lead the response with it
Robustness / scale / boundary askrun the check (jue-robustness); report the point estimate barely moves
Mechanism / equilibrium interpretationtighten via jue-theory-model; locate incidence, short vs long run
Framing / venue / positioningreframe via jue-literature-positioning / jue-writing-style
Factually mistaken referee pointdisagree respectfully with evidence; never dismiss
Out-of-scope / would change the paper's questiondecline politely, explain the scope, offer a smaller version

Response-letter craft for JUE

  1. One letter, point by point, quoting each comment then answering immediately; mark the manuscript change (section/table/figure) for every response.
  2. Lead with the binding spatial concern. If sorting or SUTVA was the central worry, the first response is the new design evidence — the reviewer should see it without searching.
  3. Show the estimate barely moved. For every robustness ask, report the new check and that the headline magnitude is stable; instability reported honestly with a bound.
  4. Disagree with evidence, never with tone. A wrong referee point gets a falsification or a citation, not a brush-off.
  5. Make changes visible. Reference new exhibits by number; a diff or change-summary at the top helps the editor confirm compliance fast.
  6. Re-run the preflight. A revision still passes through Editorial Manager; confirm the replication folder and any exemption are current (jue-submission).

Deciding whether to fight or fold a spatial objection

Not every spatial objection deserves a new design; calibrate the response to what the objection actually threatens:

  • Fold (run the work) when the objection names a real spatial confound the paper does not yet answer — sorting, SUTVA, naive SEs. These are cheap to lose and expensive to ignore; run the check and lead with it.
  • Fight (with evidence) when the referee's premise is wrong — e.g., they assert the boundary coincides with a confounder that your covariate-smoothness panel already rules out. Quote the panel; do not concede a point the data refutes.
  • Reframe when the objection is really about scope or venue — answer by sharpening the contribution and the equilibrium reading, not by adding analysis.
  • Decline when satisfying the request would change the paper's question into a non-JUE paper; explain the scope and, if useful, offer a smaller companion result.

The editor reads the response for judgment as much as effort: a paper that folds on the binding spatial concern and fights only where the evidence is clearly on its side reads as credible.

Checklist

  • The editor's binding concerns are identified and answered first
  • Every referee comment has a point-by-point response with a marked manuscript change
  • Binding sorting/SUTVA/spatial-SE concerns answered with new evidence, led in the letter
  • Robustness asks show the point estimate barely moves (or honest bound if it does)
  • Disagreements are evidence-based and respectful
  • New exhibits referenced by number; change summary provided
  • Replication folder and any confidential-data exemption refreshed for the revision
  • Revision scope held to the binding concerns, not expanded into fresh objections
  • Local-estimand honesty carried into all new results (no new over-claiming)

Anti-patterns

  • Answering the loudest referee while the editor's binding concern is left thin
  • Reporting that significance survived while the point estimate quietly wandered
  • Dismissing a mistaken referee point instead of refuting it with evidence
  • Agreeing to a scope change that turns it into a different (non-JUE) paper
  • A response letter that asserts changes without pointing to the section/table/figure
  • Forgetting the revision re-enters Editorial Manager and must stay replication-compliant

Worked vignette (illustrative)

The light-rail paper's R&R has one binding editor concern — control contamination from displaced demand — and several robustness asks. The response leads with a new spillover-ring design (treated 0–800m, ring 800–1600m, control >1600m) showing the capitalization estimate holds at 4.4% and quantifying the displacement, each tied to a new map and table. The bandwidth and spatial-SE-cutoff asks follow, each showing the estimate in [4.2%, 4.6%]. A referee's claim that the boundary coincides with a highway is refuted with a covariate-smoothness panel. The letter then routes back through jue-submission to confirm the revision is replication-compliant.

Pace and the revised replication folder

A field-flagship R&R is a genuine opportunity, but the clock and the standards both tighten on the second pass. Two practical disciplines: first, do not let the revision sprawl — answer what the editor flagged as binding and the referees' substantive spatial points, and resist adding scope that invites a fresh round of objections. Second, every new analysis (a spillover ring, a new scale, a placebo) changes the code and exhibits, so refresh the replication folder as you revise, not at the end; a revision that re-runs cleanly from raw data to the new maps is both correct and ready for the acceptance deposit. Carry the local-estimand honesty into the new results too — referees re-read for over-claiming.
