advmat-workflow
Use when deciding which advmat-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from scope-fit through revision for an Advanced Materials (Adv. Mater.) manuscript. Routes — does not replace — the specialized skills.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# Advanced Materials Workflow (advmat-workflow) ## Overview This is the router. It does not do the work of any specialized skill; it names **which advmat-* skill fits your current stage** and hands off. Default assumption: unless told otherwise, the target is **Advanced Materials (Adv. Mater.)** — Wiley-VCH's flagship materials-science journal. The defining bar is a genuine **materials-science advance** (a new material, mechanism, or property — not an incremental improvement) that is **rigorously characterized by multiple complementary techniques**, ideally carried through to a **device-level demonstration benchmarked against the state of the art**, and communicated with **cover-quality figures**. If the work is solid but incremental or narrowly functional, its home is more likely **Advanced Functional Materials**, **Advanced Science**, **Small**, or **Advanced Materials Interfaces**, and `advmat-scope-fit` will say so. ## When to trigger - User asks "what should I do next?" on a materials manuscript - User drops a draft and needs the current bottleneck diagnosed - User is unsure whether the result is "Adv. Mater.-worthy" or belongs in a sibling Advanced-portfolio journal - The man

What does the advmat-workflow skill do?
Use when deciding which advmat-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from scope-fit through revision for an Advanced Materials (Adv. Mater.) manuscript. Routes — does not replace — the specialized skills.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill advmat-workflow --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
