aos-tables-figures
Use when building the exhibits of an Accounting, Organizations and Society (AOS) manuscript — data-inventory and evidence tables for qualitative work, cell-means and process-test tables for experiments, and figures that carry theoretical weight — in Elsevier-compatible format. Builds exhibits; it does not run the analysis (aos-data-analysis).
npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill aos-tables-figures --agent claude-code
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.
# Tables & Figures (aos-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - A field paper has long quotations but no exhibit showing the evidentiary base - Experimental results lack a clean cell-means or contrast table - A figure decorates rather than argues (or a needed process figure is missing) - Formatting must be reconciled with Elsevier submission requirements ## Exhibits by tradition — what AOS reviewers look for **Qualitative field / historical papers** - **Data-inventory table**: interviews (number, roles, duration, period), observations (events, hours), documents (types, spans) — the single exhibit that preempts "how much data is behind this?" - **Evidence table(s)**: conceptual claim or second-order theme in one column, representative field excerpts in the other, so the interpretive chain is inspectable without bloating the text. - **Coding-structure exhibit** where the paper's method warrants it: first-order codes → second-order categories → aggregate concepts, showing movement from informant language to theory. - **Timeline or process figure** for change studies: phases, key events, and where the accounting practice intervened. - Anonymize consistently — pseudonyms and role labels in

What does the aos-tables-figures skill do?
Use when building the exhibits of an Accounting, Organizations and Society (AOS) manuscript — data-inventory and evidence tables for qualitative work, cell-means and process-test tables for experiments, and figures that carry theoretical weight — in Elsevier-compatible format. Builds exhibits; it does not run the analysis (aos-data-analysis).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill aos-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.
