This comprehensive skill guides authors on submitting manuscripts to The Journal of Roman Studies (JRS). It outlines JRS's core expectation: an original argument built directly on primary evidence (inscriptions, texts, artifacts, etc.). It covers disciplinary standards for Roman history, archaeology, epigraphy, and literature, ensuring submissions are appropriately framed and methodologically sound before actual submission.

This skill processes unstructured, rambling, stream-of-consciousness input (like dictation or brainstorming) into a highly structured 'echo' audit. It captures the user's core mission, locked decisions, open questions, and all model inferences, ensuring the user verifies the model's belief, not just the stated doubts. Ideal for refining fuzzy ideas before committing to work.

This guide helps researchers determine the most appropriate conference (UAI, AISTATS, NeurIPS, ICML, etc.) for their work, particularly when the core contribution revolves around uncertainty representation, probabilistic reasoning, or causal inference. It provides detailed filters and comparison points to refine the paper's scope and target audience.

A specialized guide for authors aiming to submit to the Conference on Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence (UAI). It provides expert advice on framing the core contribution—such as probabilistic reasoning, causal inference, and uncertainty modeling—and calibrating the manuscript for highly technical, statistical ML reviewers. Use this skill to refine your submission strategy, identify evidence gaps, and properly position your work relative to other top-tier AI venues like AISTATS and IJCAI.

A comprehensive guide for optimizing computer science manuscripts targeting the USENIX Annual Technical Conference (ATC). It covers core systems research fields (OS, networking, storage, security), defining the required evidence bar (built artifacts, clean evaluation), and re-framing the paper's contribution to align with top-tier systems venue expectations.

This guide outlines the rigorous standards for establishing causal claims in development economics and social sciences. It covers robust quantitative methods (like DID, IV, RDD, RCT) and structured qualitative/mixed-methods approaches. The core principle is that the logical route from evidence to claim must be explicitly defensible and matched to the strength of the assertion, avoiding over-claiming.

This guide helps scholars rigorously defend the methodological design of academic papers, particularly in International Relations and Comparative Politics. It covers advanced techniques such as process tracing, case selection logic, quantitative cross-national panel data analysis (DID, IV, RDD), and experimental design. Its core purpose is to strengthen causal claims by explicitly addressing selection bias, defining scope conditions, and ruling out major rival explanations.

This skill guides the creation of self-contained, highly accessible, and reproducible exhibits (tables, figures, maps) for World Politics manuscripts. It addresses strict length limits by differentiating between core arguments (in the article) and supplementary material (online appendix). It emphasizes visual communication excellence, moving beyond simple coefficient tables to forest plots and event studies to convey magnitude and uncertainty effectively.

This skill guides authors in polishing academic manuscripts for top-tier comparative politics and International Relations journals. It ensures the work reads broadly across cases, front-loads the core argument, adheres to strict house styles (author-date, anonymity), and fits demanding word count limits. Ideal for final drafting and submission preparation.

This skill revises legal prose to match the high standards of major academic journals, ensuring clarity and readability for a generalist legal audience (e.g., non-specialist scholars, judges, and practitioners). It focuses on making the argument visible in the main text, maintaining a confident, plain voice, and properly balancing supporting material in footnotes with core reasoning in the body. Ideal for final polish passes before submission.

This skill guides researchers in transforming raw empirical findings into robust, portable, field-level theoretical contributions suitable for top-tier journals. It provides a structured framework for elevating results by defining explicit communication mechanisms, establishing scope conditions, and articulating observable implications. It ensures the work contributes to the core body of theoretical communication knowledge, moving beyond simple effect documentation.

This guide helps researchers structure and refine academic papers for the Journal on Communications (JOC). It provides a framework for separating core, decision-making content (main text) from supporting details (appendices/supplementary material), ensuring the manuscript remains scientifically rigorous yet adheres to strict length constraints (e.g., ~12000 characters). It teaches how to use a 'decisive three-question' standard.
