# R&R Rebuttal for JOM (jom-rebuttal) ## When to trigger - You received a major-revision (R&R) decision from JOM - You must turn Department Editor, Associate Editor, and reviewer comments into a revision plan - You need a point-by-point response letter that survives a second round - Method-check or identification concerns must be resolved before resubmission ## Triage the letter first JOM's decision is filtered through a Department Editor and Associate Editor on top of reviewers. Before writing: 1. **Extract the DE/AE's decisive priorities** — these set what must change for the paper to survive. They outrank individual reviewer asks when those conflict. 2. **Separate method-check issues** (sampling, measurement validity, identification/endogeneity, common-method remedies, reproducibility). Given JOM's institutionalized Empirical Research Methods gate, these usually must be **fully resolved**, not argued away. 3. **Flag contribution concerns** — "operations not central enough" or "theory contribution thin" require reframing via `jom-contribution-framing`, not just more tables. 4. **Note presentational items** — exhibits, APA style, length, clarity. ## Build the response letter - One

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jom-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 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.
