Browse reusable Agent Skills, each with a clear purpose and practical guidance.
Use when polishing Journal of Human Resources (JHR) prose — abstract, introduction, results paragraphs that translate coefficients into policy units, reconciliation language against prior estimates, disclosure wording, and structure that respects the page-limited manuscript format.
Use when turning results into an explicit contribution to international-business theory for a Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) manuscript — stating what the field learns about cross-border activity, why it is non-incremental, and its implications for IB theory, practice, and (per JIBS's mission) societal impact. Frames the claim; it does not run analysis (jibs-data-analysis) or position the literature (jibs-literature-positioning).
Use when positioning a Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) manuscript within the international-business conversation — joining a live IB debate, problematizing rather than gap-spotting, and situating the work against the JIBS canon and adjacent IB outlets. Frames the conversation; it does not state the final contribution claim (jibs-contribution-framing).
Use when planning revisions and drafting the point-by-point response letter after a Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) revise-and-resubmit — prioritizing by the area editor's letter, executing the cross-national measurement, CMV, and (dynamic-)endogeneity work reviewers demand, and citing the relevant methods editorials. Drafts the revision and response; it does not interpret the decision (jibs-review-process).
Use when setting expectations for, or interpreting, the Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) editorial process — the desk-screen, double-blind review, area-editor routing by IB subfield, the methods-editorial standards reviewers apply, and how to read a JIBS decision letter. Explains the process; the response letter itself is drafted with jibs-rebuttal.
Use when building the theoretical mechanism and deriving hypotheses for a Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) manuscript — specifying cross-level (country/culture → firm/individual) logic, boundary conditions, and an explicit contribution to international-business theory. Builds the argument; it does not test it (jibs-data-analysis) or pick the design (jibs-methods).
Use when choosing or sharpening a research question for a Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) manuscript — testing whether it is a genuine international-business phenomenon with country/culture as a level of analysis, and whether JIBS (vs. AMJ/SMJ/JWB) is the right venue. Locks the question; it does not build the mechanism (jibs-theory-development).
Use to frame the contribution of a Journal of International Economics (JIE) manuscript so it clears the journal's gate that work be original in its motivation or modelling structure — articulating what is new for international trade or international macro/finance, for an audience split between the two halves of the field. Frames the "what's new"; it does not produce the results.
Use when drafting the response letter for a revise-and-resubmit at the Journal of International Economics (JIE) — answering international-trade or open-economy-macro referees on gravity/structural specification, identification, and model discipline, and keeping the revision within JIE's scope and originality bar. Structures the rebuttal; it does not invent results.
Use to align prose, abstract, and structure with Journal of International Economics (JIE) house norms — the 150-word factual abstract, 1-7 keywords, balancing theory and empirics, and writing for an audience split between international trade and international macro/finance. Shapes style; it does not generate results.
