# R&R Rebuttal (jbv-rebuttal) ## When to trigger - You received a major-revision (R&R) decision from a JBV handling editor - You have revised (or are planning to revise) and need the response letter - Reviewers disagree, or a reviewer doubts the entrepreneurship contribution - You are in a later round and must show cumulative progress ## Revise first, then write the letter Do not draft the response before the manuscript is actually revised — a response that promises changes not yet made reads as evasive to a developmental handling editor. ## Prioritize the handling editor's concerns Because the handling editor's letter sets the priorities at JBV: 1. Address the handling editor's make-or-break concerns first and most thoroughly, especially any "is the entrepreneurship contribution central and real?" worry. 2. Then resolve the integrative cross-cutting concern that unlocks several reviewer points. 3. Then the remaining reviewer points, grouped by theme. ## Defend the phenomenon-driven contribution JBV's bar is advancing theory about the entrepreneurial phenomenon. If a reviewer says "this could be any organization," do not just add startup vocabulary — show the mechanism is specifica

About this skill
What does the jbv-rebuttal skill do?

Use after a Journal of Business Venturing (JBV) R&R to plan revisions and draft the point-by-point response letter — prioritizing the handling editor's concerns, defending or strengthening the entrepreneurship contribution, and addressing selection/survivorship/identification threats across multiple rounds. Drafts the revision plan and response; interpret the letter first with jbv-review-process.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jbv-rebuttal --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.
