What it does

Revacc Rebuttal is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when a Review of Accounting Studies (RAST) revise-and-resubmit has arrived and you must plan the revision and draft the point-by-point response — resolving the editor's first-order concerns (identification, the channel, measurement, or the model) before writing the letter. Plans and drafts the response; it does not run the new analyses from scratch (revacc-data-analysis) or re-run the submission preflight (revacc-submission).

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 Business, Finance & HR, covering Accounting and bookkeeping, Peer review and Data analysis. 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

  • The model) before writing the letter
  • Tasks that involve Accounting and bookkeeping
  • Tasks that involve Peer review

Example prompts

  • “/revacc-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

Revacc Rebuttal loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 112 tokens; SKILL.md has 538 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~112
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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 Review of Accounting Studies (RAST) revise-and-resubmit has arrived and you must plan the revision and draft the point-by-point response — resolving the editor's first-order concerns (identification, the channel, measurement, or the model) before writing the letter. Plans and drafts the response; it does not run the new analyses from scratch (revacc-data-analysis) or re-run the submission preflight (revacc-submission).

R&R Revision & Response (revacc-rebuttal)

When to trigger

  • You received a RAST revise-and-resubmit and must plan the revision
  • You need to draft the point-by-point response to the editor and referees
  • Referees disagree and you must triage which concerns are binding
  • New analyses change tables and the manuscript needs re-aligning
  • An analytical paper's referee disputes an assumption or a proposition

An R&R at RAST is a strong signal — treat it accordingly

Because RAST often decides on the first round, an R&R is a meaningful vote of confidence rather than routine. That raises the stakes on getting the revision right: you may not get a third round, so resolve the editor's first-order concerns substantively, not rhetorically. Do the analytical (or modeling) work before drafting the letter — a RAST R&R turns on whether you have actually strengthened identification, the economic channel, construct measurement, or the model, not on rhetorical skill.

Triage the referee points

  • First-order (must resolve): endogeneity/identification threats, an unidentified channel, fragile or invalid construct measurement, sample-construction concerns; for analytical papers, a load-bearing assumption a referee rejects or a proposition whose generality is questioned. These usually require new analyses (a cleaner setting, additional diagnostics, alternative proxies, falsification tests) or new modeling (relaxing an assumption, an extension, a robustness proposition).
  • Second-order (resolve or reason): additional robustness, exposition, framing, extra citations. Implement where cheap; otherwise explain clearly.
  • Conflicting referees: do not whipsaw the paper. State the trade-off and follow the editor's steer; note where you sided with one referee and why.

The editor's letter is the binding map — it tells you which points are first-order. Address those first.

Draft the response letter

  • One point, one response. Quote each comment, then give your response and point to the exact change (section, table number, new analysis, new proposition).
  • Show the new evidence. For identification/measurement concerns, present the new table or diagnostic in the letter (or a response appendix), not just a promise. For analytical concerns, show the revised result.
  • Be candid about limits. Where a concern cannot be fully resolved, state what the design (or model) can and cannot deliver, and add the scope condition to the paper.
  • Respectful and specific. Thank referees, concede valid points, defend with evidence — never dismiss.

Keep the manuscript consistent and anonymized

Re-align variable names, hypothesis labels, table numbers, and the contribution statement after the revision so the paper still reads as one story. Keep it double-anonymized for the next round (no acknowledgements or self-citation leaks introduced during revision). Refresh the data-provenance trail so it regenerates all revised exhibits; confirm any current data/code expectation on the official page (待核实; 检索于 2026-06).

Checklist

  • Revision analyses / modeling completed before drafting the response
  • Editor's first-order concerns identified and substantively resolved
  • Each referee comment quoted with a specific, change-anchored response
  • New identification/measurement/model evidence shown, not promised
  • Conflicting referees reconciled per the editor's steer
  • Manuscript re-aligned (names, labels, table numbers, contribution) and still anonymized
  • Provenance trail regenerates all revised exhibits

Anti-patterns

  • Writing the letter before doing the work.
  • Treating all referees equally instead of following the editor's priorities.
  • Promising robustness instead of showing it.
  • Cosmetic responses to first-order identification or measurement concerns.
  • Squandering a strong signal: under-investing in an R&R that RAST rarely grants.
  • Leaking anonymity through acknowledgements or self-cites added during revision.
