agsy-revision-and-rebuttal
Use when writing the response to an Agricultural Systems (AgSy) revision decision. AgSy review is single anonymized with at least two expert systems reviewers and an editor decision, and revisions often turn on model evaluation, sensitivity/uncertainty, and trade-off framing. The response must convert each reviewer without alienating the editor. Structures the response letter; it does not fabricate new results.

# Revision & Rebuttal (agsy-revision-and-rebuttal) A revise decision at AgSy is a real chance — but systems reviewers tend to press on the **model** (calibration, evaluation, sensitivity, uncertainty) and the **trade-off / decision framing**. The response letter must move *every* reviewer toward yes while keeping the **editor** confident the revision converges. Reviewers are not anonymous to you on their side (single anonymized), but keep the tone professional and evidence-based. ## When to trigger - A major/minor revision decision arrived and you are planning the revision + response letter - Reviewers disagree (e.g., one wants more scenarios, another wants a simpler model) - A reviewer requests additional evaluation, sensitivity, or uncertainty analysis - Writing the cover note to the editor summarizing the revision ## Strategy 1. **Read the editor's letter as the rubric.** The editor signals which points are decisive — often model evaluation, uncertainty, or systems framing. Solve those first; the editor adjudicates disagreements among reviewers. 2. **One point-by-point response, every comment addressed.** Quote each comment, then respond. Never skip one — silence reads as non-co

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.
