lang-literature-positioningA skill your agent uses when positioning a Language (LSA) manuscript within the literature so it reads as in dialogue with current linguistics across frameworks.
Lang Literature Positioning is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when positioning a Language (LSA) manuscript within the literature so it reads as in dialogue with current linguistics across frameworks. Language reviewers are drawn from across subfields; the positioning must engage the strongest rival accounts fairly, not build a subfield-only wall. Maps the conversation; it does not write the literature review.
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.
It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Positioning and messaging and Literature 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.
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
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.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Lang Literature Positioning loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 96 tokens; SKILL.md has 737 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

.claude/skills/lang-literature-positioning/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).At Language the literature section proves the paper is in dialogue with current linguistics — across frameworks, not only inside your own. Because the journal is generalist and its editors recruit double-anonymous reviewers from across subfields, your positioning is the signal they read to place the paper and to match referees. A section that engages only your framework's in-group tells the editor this belongs at a subfield venue. This skill maps the conversation and locates your contribution in it.
lang-theory-building: the tension
you name is the prediction you will adjudicate.Language prizes engagement across traditions. If your account is generative, still engage the functionalist or usage-based reading of the same data (and vice versa) where it bears on the claim. The goal is not to referee a framework war but to show your analysis wins on the data and predictions, whatever lens the reader brings.
If you are writing a Discussion Note on a published Language article or a Perspectives Commentary:
| Referee signal | The Language-specific fix |
|---|---|
| "Reinvents a known result." | locate the live debate and the strongest prior analysis |
| "Straw-mans the rival framework." | engage the best version of the account you challenge |
| "Subfield-only literature." | reframe the tension for the whole discipline |
| "Missing the foundational reference." | situate against and extend the standard account |
Because editors infer area and method from the blinded manuscript to recruit cross-subfield referees, a narrow literature map invites a poor reviewer match. Illustrative: a paper framed as "OT has not modeled this tone sandhi" reads as gap-filling; reframed as a tension between representational and computational accounts of the sandhi that the author's data adjudicate, it engages a debate the whole phonology community — and interested syntacticians — recognize.
Treat this skill as an executable review pass, not a prose hint. First lock the empirical generalization, the evidence base, the analysis's predictions, and the theoretical payoff; then judge whether the manuscript answers the venue's real reader: linguists across subfields who value grounded analysis, transparent evidence, and fair engagement across frameworks.
