newms-workflow
Use as the entry point for any New Media & Society (NM&S) manuscript. Routes to the right NM&S sub-skill based on the lifecycle stage and the method (qualitative interviews/ethnography, critical-theoretical, content/discourse analysis, computational, or mixed). It dispatches; it does not draft content.

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.
# NM&S Workflow Router (newms-workflow) The orchestrator for a New Media & Society submission. NM&S is the broad **interdisciplinary** journal on digital media, the internet, and society, and it is **methodologically pluralist** — so the router's first job is to confirm the work has stakes for *new media and society broadly* and to send the user to the skill matching their stage and their method. ## When to trigger - Starting a new NM&S paper and unsure where to begin - Mid-project and unsure which skill applies next - Worried the work reads as a platform case study with no portable argument - Returning with a decision letter (route to `newms-rebuttal`) ## First question: contribution & method NM&S asks two things up front. First, **does this say something about new media and society**, not just about one app or one dataset? Second, **what method carries the claim** — because design and analysis advice differ sharply: | Method family | Typical evidence | Routing weight | |---------------|------------------|----------------| | Qualitative — interviews, digital ethnography | interview corpus, fieldnotes, online observation | theory ↔ evidence loops heavily | | Critical / theoretical

What does the newms-workflow skill do?
Use as the entry point for any New Media & Society (NM&S) manuscript. Routes to the right NM&S sub-skill based on the lifecycle stage and the method (qualitative interviews/ethnography, critical-theoretical, content/discourse analysis, computational, or mixed). It dispatches; it does not draft content.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill newms-workflow --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.
