phg-contribution-framing

Use when framing the forward-looking contribution of a Progress in Human Geography (PiHG) review essay — the portable "so what / what next" agenda the field can carry forward. Frames and stakes the contribution; it does not make the critical move (see phg-critical-intervention) or polish prose (see phg-writing-style).

# Contribution Framing (phg-contribution-framing) *Progress* in Human Geography is in the title. A PiHG essay must not only re-order a debate but **point the field forward** — leave readers with a **portable, generative agenda** they can take to their own work. This skill turns the critical intervention (`phg-critical-intervention`) into a clearly staked contribution and an agenda that reads as *progress*, not just critique. ## When to trigger - The critique is sharp but the essay ends without a "what next" - Deciding how ambitiously to pitch the contribution (a re-read vs. a new agenda) - A reviewer said "fine critique, but where does this leave the field?" - Writing the abstract and the closing agenda section ## Name the contribution type (be honest about ambition) | Type | The claim | Reviewer expectation | |------|-----------|----------------------| | **Re-read** | A better way to understand an existing literature | The re-read must be non-obvious and change what counts | | **Reframe** | A new organizing concept for a field | The concept must travel and generate questions | | **Agenda** | A forward program of what the field should now study | The agenda must be specific and doa

About this skill
What does the phg-contribution-framing skill do?

Use when framing the forward-looking contribution of a Progress in Human Geography (PiHG) review essay — the portable "so what / what next" agenda the field can carry forward. Frames and stakes the contribution; it does not make the critical move (see phg-critical-intervention) or polish prose (see phg-writing-style).

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill phg-contribution-framing --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.
