What it does

Revedres Writing Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when drafting or revising prose, the 150-word abstract, and the introduction in the Review of Educational Research (RER) synthesizing voice and APA 7 style. Lands the integrative voice; it does not build the analytic spine (revedres-organizing-framework) or design exhibits (revedres-tables-figures).

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 Writing & Content, covering Brand voice and tone. 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.

Example prompts

  • “/revedres-writing-style”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Frame the field and the problem — what is at stake for learning, instruction, policy, or equity (in plain terms, for a broad reader).
  2. Establish the need for a synthesis now — the growth, method shift, conflict, or missing frame that makes this the moment (the…
  3. State the organizing question and the framework — the spine that is the contribution (revedres-organizing-framework), named up front.
  4. State the bottom line early — what the integrated literature shows and what remains open; do not withhold it to the conclusion.
  5. Brief roadmap — mirror the framework's cells, without over-signposting.

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

Revedres Writing Style loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 547 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
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 drafting or revising prose, the 150-word abstract, and the introduction in the Review of Educational Research (RER) synthesizing voice and APA 7 style. Lands the integrative voice; it does not build the analytic spine (revedres-organizing-framework) or design exhibits (revedres-tables-figures).

Writing Style (revedres-writing-style)

When to trigger

  • The framework and exhibits are settled and the prose needs to match the RER bar
  • A draft summarizes study-by-study instead of synthesizing across studies
  • The abstract is over 150 words or reads like a primary-research abstract
  • The introduction buries the contribution or over-signposts

The RER voice: synthesize, do not summarize, for a broad education audience

RER is read across education and adjacent disciplines, not by one method club. The voice is comprehensive, critical, and integrative: authoritative about the field, fair to every camp, and accessible to a reader who does not already know this literature. The single most-punished move is prose that walks through one study per paragraph — "Smith (2019) found… Jones (2020) found…" — which is summary, not synthesis. Instead, organize paragraphs around claims, constructs, and tensions, citing clusters of studies as evidence for each.

The introduction arc

The opening should, in order:

  1. Frame the field and the problem — what is at stake for learning, instruction, policy, or equity (in plain terms, for a broad reader).
  2. Establish the need for a synthesis now — the growth, method shift, conflict, or missing frame that makes this the moment (the revedres-topic-selection "why now").
  3. State the organizing question and the framework — the spine that is the contribution (revedres-organizing-framework), named up front.
  4. State the bottom line early — what the integrated literature shows and what remains open; do not withhold it to the conclusion.
  5. Brief roadmap — mirror the framework's cells, without over-signposting.

Synthesis-craft at the paragraph level

  • Topic sentence = a claim about the field, then studies as support — not "Author X did Y."
  • Reconcile, don't tally. When studies conflict, explain why (estimand, design, population), per revedres-comprehensiveness-and-balance.
  • Carry credibility in the prose. "Two well-identified experiments… whereas weaker correlational work…" — weight, don't count.
  • Steelman before critiquing. Give each perspective its strongest case before its limits.
  • Critical, not neutral. RER wants critical synthesis: judge the field's methods and assumptions, name what it gets wrong, and label your own read.

RER house style (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准)

  • APA 7th edition throughout — citations, references, headings, tables, figures, and bias-free language.
  • Abstract ≤ 150 words, with keywords; written as a review abstract (question → corpus/method → what the synthesis shows → implications), not a single-study abstract.
  • Masked manuscript: a blinded title page in the main file; no identifying self-references in the body (anonymize only limited-circulation self-citations — keep ordinary published self-citations visible). See revedres-submission.
  • Microsoft Word (not PDF); separate unblinded title page with APA-7 Author Note; Author Bios.

Checklist

  • Paragraphs organized around claims/constructs/tensions, not one-study-per-paragraph
  • Conflicting findings reconciled (why they differ), not vote-counted
  • Credibility carried in the prose (weight by design quality, not count)
  • Each perspective steelmanned before critique; author's own read labeled
  • Introduction follows frame → why-now → spine → bottom-line-early → roadmap
  • Abstract ≤ 150 words, review-style, with keywords
  • APA 7 throughout (citations, references, headings, bias-free language)
  • Manuscript masked correctly (blinded body; only limited-circulation self-cites anonymized)

Anti-patterns

  • "Smith found… Jones found…" study-by-study march (summary, not synthesis)
  • Withholding the bottom line until the conclusion (RER readers want it up front)
  • A 250-word abstract or one written like a single-study report
  • Neutral cataloguing with no critical judgment of the field's methods or assumptions
  • Over-signposting ("In this section we will…") doing the work the argument should do
  • Non-APA-7 citations/headings, or a draft that de-anonymizes the authors in the body

Output format

【Synthesis test】paragraphs by claim/construct/tension (not per-study)? Y/N
【Conflict handling】reconciled, not tallied? Y/N
【Intro arc】frame → why-now → spine → bottom-line-early → roadmap? Y/N
