This guide assists researchers in elevating foundational chemical discoveries beyond subfield-specific details. It provides comprehensive advice on re-framing manuscripts to meet the high, cross-disciplinary impact standards required by flagship journals like Chem. Key areas covered include connecting findings to global challenges (e.g., energy, sustainability, medicine), structuring the narrative, and adhering to rigorous evidence and style requirements.

This skill guides authors on assessing if their cardiovascular manuscript meets the rigorous standards of Circulation, the AHA's flagship journal. It covers the journal's specific scope, ideal research methods (e.g., RCTs, biomarker studies, epidemiology), structural requirements, and how to effectively frame the work to impact AHA guidelines and clinical practice.

This guide helps researchers rigorously evaluate their chemical findings against the high standards of flagship journals like JACS. It teaches how to assess both the 'Advance' (novelty and importance) and 'Breadth' (general applicability) of a discovery, ensuring the manuscript is pitched correctly to avoid subfield-only publications. It also advises on choosing the appropriate format (Article vs. Communication).

This guide helps researchers assess whether their empirical work or research question possesses sufficient breadth, economic magnitude, and general-interest appeal to be suitable for top-tier, flagship finance journals like the Journal of Finance (JF). It focuses on sharpening the contribution's framing and determining its reach across various subfields, rather than conducting the empirical analysis itself.

This skill guides researchers through the rigorous 'fit test' for submitting research to a flagship journal like the Journal of Communication (JoC). It helps determine if a project possesses general, cross-disciplinary significance rather than being limited to a specific platform or niche subfield. Use it to elevate case studies into theory-driven mechanisms, significantly improving the scholarly impact of your work.

This guide helps authors craft sophisticated introductions by positioning their research within an existing academic conversation. It teaches how to move beyond merely identifying a 'gap' to actively 'problematizing' the field by challenging core assumptions, and how to explicitly demonstrate the cross-departmental relevance of findings to maximize impact with journal editors and reviewers.

This guide helps researchers evaluate the scope and general significance of their theoretical computer science work. It introduces the 'breadth test' (corridor, lineage, technique) and a detailed routing map to advise whether the paper is best suited for a flagship, broad-scope venue like STOC, or a more specialized conference (e.g., SODA, ITCS, CCC). It provides a structured decision procedure for optimizing academic publication success.

This skill assists software engineers through the entire technical job search cycle. It provides structured analysis for job descriptions (identifying must-haves, red flags), optimizes CVs for specific roles, guides writing compelling cover letters, evaluates total compensation packages, and crafts professional post-interview follow-up emails, ensuring the job search process is professional and highly targeted.

This skill provides a specialized analysis of NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) contracts for NCAA student-athletes. Operating from the athlete's perspective, it identifies critical red flags, missing protections, and compliance issues based on applicable state laws. It generates a structured review memorandum, complete with negotiation positions, serving as a powerful preliminary tool for licensed attorneys. **Disclaimer: This is not legal advice.**
