pubar-workflow
Use when starting or navigating any Public Administration Review (PAR) manuscript and unsure which skill applies. Routes to the right PAR sub-skill based on lifecycle stage and which article type (Scholarly Take, Conceptualizing PA, Early Career Intel, Practically Speaking, Public Administration in Print) fits. It dispatches; it does not draft content.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# PAR Workflow Router (pubar-workflow) The orchestrator for a Public Administration Review submission. Figure out the **stage** and the **article type**, then send the user to the matching skill. PAR is the **ASPA flagship that bridges research and practice** — the router's first job is to confirm the paper carries a credible contribution to scholarship *and* a defensible "so-what" for public managers. ## When to trigger - Starting a new PAR paper and unsure where to begin - Mid-project and unsure which skill applies next - Deciding which **article type** fits the work - Returning with a decision letter (route to `pubar-rebuttal`) ## First question: which article type? | Situation | Article type | Route to | |-----------|--------------|----------| | Full empirical study, broad PA significance | **Scholarly Take** (research manuscript, ≤ 8,000 words) | normal pipeline below | | Conceptual / theoretical or "state of PA" thought piece | **Conceptualizing Public Administration** | `pubar-theory-building` early | | Research manuscript by an early-career scholar | **Early Career Intel** | normal pipeline, scope tightly | | Practitioner–scholar co-authored, practice-driven | **Practically

What does the pubar-workflow skill do?
Use when starting or navigating any Public Administration Review (PAR) manuscript and unsure which skill applies. Routes to the right PAR sub-skill based on lifecycle stage and which article type (Scholarly Take, Conceptualizing PA, Early Career Intel, Practically Speaking, Public Administration in Print) fits. It dispatches; it does not draft content.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill pubar-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.
