A rigorous, blameless framework for conducting post-mortems after major failures, such as missed quarterly targets, failed launches, or poor hires. It guides users through defining the event, applying the 5 Whys to find root causes, distinguishing between contributing factors and core causes, identifying ignored warning signs, and creating actionable, owned change registers to ensure systemic improvement and prevent recurrence.

This powerful skill pauses deep technical discussions to conduct a comprehensive, multi-dimensional reassessment. It analyzes conceptual drift, identifies unverified assumptions, and detects potential cognitive biases (e.g., confirmation bias, sunk cost fallacy). Use it when the conversation is becoming overly detailed, or when a strategic check-in is needed to ensure the focus remains on the core objective and the correct problem is being solved.

This skill generates a complete, structured interview scorecard and guide for any specific role. It helps reduce hiring bias and ensures consistent evaluation across all interviewers by defining key competencies, behavioral questions (STAR format), and clear scoring guidance. It is crucial when developing comprehensive assessment criteria or interview frameworks for hiring.

This skill transforms the current workspace into a comprehensive, stateful teaching environment. It guides the user through deep, multi-session learning by structuring content into core components: a defined mission, reference materials, curated resources, structured lessons, and continuous learning records. It employs educational best practices (spaced repetition, retrieval practice) to ensure long-term knowledge retention.

A comprehensive guide detailing the process of responding to major or minor revisions from academic journals (like AAAG). It teaches authors how to structure a point-by-point rebuttal letter, address editor and referee concerns methodically, strengthen the core academic argument, and incorporate required methodological and cartographic fixes, ensuring the response is both respectful and scientifically rigorous.

A comprehensive guide for authors transitioning an accepted, anonymous conference submission into the final, public camera-ready version for publication. It covers de-anonymization steps, including restoring author details, updating proceedings metadata, reflowing figures for multiagent papers, and integrating rebuttal promises without expanding the core contribution. This ensures adherence to strict publishing standards.

Provides comprehensive guidelines on structuring academic manuscripts for Acta Automatica Sinica (AAS). Learn how to effectively separate core contributions (main text) from supporting details, such as lengthy proofs, supplementary simulations, and extensive datasets, ensuring the paper remains concise and highly readable while maintaining scientific completeness for reviewers.

This skill guides researchers on how to triage numerous robustness checks for short-format academic manuscripts (e.g., AER: Insights) constrained by word and exhibit limits. It teaches the 'minimum credible set' approach: identifying the 1-2 core checks that defend the central hypothesis for the main text, while systematically moving all supplementary checks to the Appendix and properly signposting them in one sentence to maintain credibility.

A comprehensive strategy guide for responding to a 'Revise and Resubmit' (R&R) decision from top-tier academic journals. It teaches authors how to structure the response letter, reconcile conflicting reviewer demands, defend the paper's core contribution, and maintain a professional, confident tone while addressing every single comment point-by-point.

This comprehensive guide provides best practices for structuring appendices and supplementary materials for high-level academic journals. It helps authors manage the balance between main text conciseness and academic completeness by clearly defining what belongs in the core narrative (main findings) versus what should be reserved for the supplementary section (detailed proofs, extended experiments, raw data, and multimedia).

A comprehensive guide for structuring academic arguments, specifically tailored to the high theoretical standards of top-tier journals like AJPS. It helps researchers transform initial ideas into a rigorous framework, defining core mechanisms, stating directional and testable hypotheses before results, and establishing clear scope conditions for empirical, formal, or methodological papers.

This skill guides the polishing and refinement of academic manuscripts specifically for submission to the American Journal of Political Science (AJPS). It ensures the paper adheres to strict academic standards, such as APSA or Chicago style, manages stringent word counts (e.g., Abstract <= 150 words, Article <= 10,000 words), and maintains full anonymity for double-blind review. It focuses on tightening the prose, front-loading the core contribution, and optimizing the overall structure without generating new content.
