sf-submission
Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for Social Forces (SF) via ScholarOne Manuscript Central — double-anonymized preparation with a separate title page, the reference-inclusive 10,000-word cap, the 10 tables-and-figure-panels limit, Chicago 17th author-date, the data availability statement, ORCID, and the $50 processing fee. Final checks; 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.
# Submission Preflight (sf-submission) The last check before pressing submit on **ScholarOne Manuscript Central** (`mc.manuscriptcentral.com/sf`). SF is **double-anonymized**, so the most common avoidable failures are an under-anonymized manuscript and a manuscript that misses the **reference-inclusive 10,000-word cap** or the **10-panel** exhibit limit. Verify volatile specifics on the official page before relying on them. ## When to trigger - "Submitting tomorrow" — last pass before upload - Unsure which files/metadata ScholarOne expects - Confirming length, panel count, anonymization, and the data availability statement are all in order ## Process facts (verify volatile items on the official page) - **Owner / publisher:** UNC Chapel Hill (Dept. of Sociology) / **Oxford University Press**. - **Portal:** **ScholarOne Manuscript Central** (`mc.manuscriptcentral.com/sf`); Word or .odt. - **Review model:** **double-anonymized** — anonymize the manuscript; all identifying info on a **separate title page**. - **Length:** **≤ 10,000 words including text, endnotes, and references** (references count). - **Exhibits:** **≤ 10 tables and figure panels**; supplementary materials **≤ 10 pages

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill sf-submission --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.
