amr-tables-figures
Use when building the conceptual exhibits of an Academy of Management Review (AMR) manuscript — process models, 2x2 typologies, multi-level frameworks, and propositions tables that carry theoretical work. These are CONCEPTUAL figures, NOT data plots; AMR has no charts of results because it has no data.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Conceptual Figures & Propositions Tables (amr-tables-figures) > AMR exhibits do *theoretical* work. There are no scatterplots, bar charts, or regression > tables — there is no data. Every figure must be readable directly off the theory: each > box is a defined construct, each arrow is a stated proposition or mechanism. ## When to trigger - The theory is built but has no visual model, or the model is decorative - Your figure is boxes and arrows with no mechanism behind the arrows - You have many propositions and the reader cannot see their structure - A typology is asserted in prose but never shown as a grid ## The exhibit toolkit | Exhibit | Use it when | It must show | |---------|-------------|--------------| | Process model | The theory is a sequence / becoming | Stages, triggers, feedback loops, timing — and the engine that drives movement | | 2x2 (or NxM) typology | The phenomenon has theoretically distinct types | Two theory-derived dimensions; mutually exclusive, jointly exhaustive cells; ideally theorized transitions between cells (cf.

What does the amr-tables-figures skill do?
Use when building the conceptual exhibits of an Academy of Management Review (AMR) manuscript — process models, 2x2 typologies, multi-level frameworks, and propositions tables that carry theoretical work. These are CONCEPTUAL figures, NOT data plots; AMR has no charts of results because it has no data.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill amr-tables-figures --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.
