Agent skill

duke-mathematical-journal

Use when targeting Duke Mathematical Journal (Duke Math. J.) or deciding whether a pure mathematics manuscript fits this top-tier broad-scope Duke University Press venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, proof standard, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

From the SKILL.md

# Duke Mathematical Journal (duke-mathematical-journal) ## Journal positioning Duke Mathematical Journal, published by Duke University Press, is one of the leading general journals in pure mathematics, with a long-standing reputation for publishing deep, high-quality research across the full range of mathematical fields. Its defining character is depth at top-tier breadth: Duke publishes results of major significance from algebra, geometry, topology, number theory, analysis, dynamics, and mathematical physics, and is regarded as sitting near the very top of the general-journal hierarchy. The journal rewards substantial, conceptually significant theorems and methods presented with full rigor; it is not a home for routine extensions or narrowly technical notes. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the Duke Mathematical Journal site (Duke University Press) and confirm submission procedures. ## When to trigger - The author is considering Duke Mathematical Journal for a deep, significant pure-mathematics paper. - A result is of maj

About this skill
What does the duke-mathematical-journal skill do?

Use when targeting Duke Mathematical Journal (Duke Math. J.) or deciding whether a pure mathematics manuscript fits this top-tier broad-scope Duke University Press venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, proof standard, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill duke-mathematical-journal --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 984 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.
