revedres-proposal-and-commissioning
Use when writing the protocol, fixing scope and eligibility, and (where applicable) preregistering a systematic review or meta-analysis before searching, for a Review of Educational Research (RER) manuscript. Produces the a-priori plan; it does not run the search (revedres-literature-synthesis) or impose the conceptual spine (revedres-organizing-framework).

# Protocol & Preregistration (revedres-proposal-and-commissioning) ## When to trigger - Topic selection cleared the four RER fit tests and it is time to lock the plan - You are about to search but have not written down inclusion/exclusion rules - You want a PROSPERO / OSF registration so the search is demonstrably a-priori - A reviewer is likely to ask "were these inclusion rules set before or after you saw the results?" ## RER is SUBMITTED, not commissioned — the protocol replaces the commission Annual Reviews *invite* their authors; **RER reviews are submitted and peer-reviewed**, so no editor pre-blesses your scope. The credibility that an invitation would have signaled must instead come from a **transparent, a-priori protocol**. For a systematic review or meta-analysis this is not optional polish — it is the difference between a synthesis and a fishing expedition. (RER occasionally publishes *solicited* analytic reviews of special topics, but the default and the bar is a strong unsolicited submission — 检索于 2026-06；以官网为准.) ## The protocol: decisions to fix BEFORE you search Write these down first; a reviewer who senses they were chosen after seeing results will distrust the whol

What does the revedres-proposal-and-commissioning skill do?
Use when writing the protocol, fixing scope and eligibility, and (where applicable) preregistering a systematic review or meta-analysis before searching, for a Review of Educational Research (RER) manuscript. Produces the a-priori plan; it does not run the search (revedres-literature-synthesis) or impose the conceptual spine (revedres-organizing-framework).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill revedres-proposal-and-commissioning --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.
