jue-rebuttal
Use when a Journal of Urban Economics (JUE) decision letter (R&R or reject-and-resubmit) needs a response-letter strategy and a revision plan. Turns referee reports into a point-by-point response and routes the analytical work back through the pack; it does not run the new analysis itself.

# Rebuttal Strategy (jue-rebuttal) ## When to trigger - A JUE R&R or major-revision letter arrived and you need a response plan - Referees raised spatial objections (sorting, spillover, scale, spatial SEs) you must now answer with evidence - Referees disagree with each other or with the editor and you must triage - You are deciding which requests to satisfy, which to push back on, and which to defer - A reject-and-resubmit invites a re-engineered design and you must scope it ## Read the editor first, then the referees The editor's letter, not the longest referee report, sets the bar. JUE editors (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准) signal which concerns are **binding** for acceptance and which are advisory. Build the plan around the binding spatial concerns; do not exhaust effort on a referee's cosmetic asks while the editor's identification worry goes half-answered. ## Triage every comment | Comment type | Response | |--------------|----------| | Binding identification/spatial concern (sorting, SUTVA, spatial SEs) | new analysis routed to `jue-identification` / `jue-robustness`; lead the response with it | | Robustness / scale / boundary ask | run the check (`jue-robustness`); report the point est

What does the jue-rebuttal skill do?
Use when a Journal of Urban Economics (JUE) decision letter (R&R or reject-and-resubmit) needs a response-letter strategy and a revision plan. Turns referee reports into a point-by-point response and routes the analytical work back through the pack; it does not run the new analysis itself.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jue-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.
