What it does
Jaar Scholarly Positioning is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when positioning a Journal of the American Academy of Religion (JAAR) article in the scholarly conversation so it reads as a contribution to the study of religion broadly, not a footnote to one subfield. Stakes the intervention across traditions and methods; it does not write the literature review.
Its SKILL.md is about 790 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: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.
When your agent uses it
- Not a footnote to one subfield
- Tasks that involve Positioning and messaging
- Tasks that involve Literature review
Example prompts
- “/jaar-scholarly-positioning”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Frame a problem, not a citation pile. Identify the live question or debate — about a category
- Two audiences at once. Persuade specialists you know the tradition/sources, and generalists why
- Engage theory and method literatures, not only area literatures. A JAAR intro typically speaks
- Name the intervention. "Scholarship has read X via framework F; I show F obscures G / that a
- Acknowledge the strongest counter-reading and preview how your evidence and method answer it.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. 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
Jaar Scholarly Positioning loads about 792 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 83 tokens; SKILL.md has 311 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.
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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 311 words (~792 tokens).
“A JAAR article must locate itself in a conversation that scholars of different traditions and methods recognize. Positioning is where you convert "interesting to specialists" into "important to the field." It pairs with jaar-topic-selection (the reframing) and feeds jaar-argument-development.”
