anmath-revision
Use when responding to an Annals of Mathematics referee report — revising the manuscript to close gaps or strengthen results and writing a point-by-point reply. Drafts the revision and response after the text is fixed; does not invent significance the result lacks (see anmath-scope-fit).

# Revision and Response (anmath-revision) ## When to trigger - A referee report has arrived (revision requested, or queries to address) - A referee found a gap, a questionable step, or a missing citation - You need to revise the manuscript and write a point-by-point reply - A correction is needed and you must show exactly what changed > Math reviews are slow and thorough. A report may identify a genuine gap; the right > response is to **fix the mathematics first**, then explain — never to argue a gap away. ## Order of operations 1. **Fix the text first.** Resolve every gap, error, or imprecision in the manuscript before drafting a single line of reply. The reply describes changes that already exist. 2. **Triage the report.** Classify each point: (a) genuine gap/error — must fix; (b) request for clarification — add exposition; (c) disagreement — respond with a precise mathematical argument, respectfully. 3. **Verify the fix does not break anything.** A repaired step must be re-checked against the whole argument (re-run the self-adversarial pass from anmath-referee-strategy). 4. **Then write the reply**, point by point, pointing to exact locations in the revision. ## Point-by-point r

What does the anmath-revision skill do?
Use when responding to an Annals of Mathematics referee report — revising the manuscript to close gaps or strengthen results and writing a point-by-point reply. Drafts the revision and response after the text is fixed; does not invent significance the result lacks (see anmath-scope-fit).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill anmath-revision --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.
