rt-desk-reject-riskUse before submitting to score a manuscript against a specific venue's own desk-reject triggers and return a ranked, fixable risk report. Venue-conditional — it reads the target's documented triggers rather than applying generic advice. Run it after rt-submission-readiness clears the mechanical bar
rt-execution-bridgeUse when an empirical analysis should be RUN and audited, not just advised — DiD, IV, RDD, synthetic control, DML, multiple-testing, sensitivity. Maps the design to the concrete StatsPAI / Stata MCP tools in this environment and reports the fitted, audited number. Defers result placement and house s
rt-journal-matchUse when an author asks "which journal should I send this to?" or needs the best resubmission target after a reject. Profiles the paper, shortlists candidates from an index of 743 venues with tools/match_venues.py, and ranks them into reach / match / safe with a resubmission ladder. Reads live venue
rt-ladder-evUse when choosing between submission sequences rather than between single venues — "should I try the top journal first, or start one rung down?", or when a tenure/job-market clock makes time-to-print the binding constraint. Costs a resubmission ladder in months and in probability of ever placing, us
rt-replication-packageUse before final submission or on acceptance to assemble and validate the Data-Editor replication package against the target venue's data-and-code policy — master script, pinned environment, README/roadmap, restricted-data plan, and a script-to-exhibit output map, with a checklist that catches the n
rt-response-to-refereesUse after an R&R (or the simulated rehearsal) to turn a referee report into a point-by-point response letter plus a revision plan — editor first, every comment answered, each empirical fix backed by a real re-run via the target pack's skill and the execution bridge. Defers the venue's response forma
rt-simulated-refereeUse to rehearse peer review before submitting — a calibrated Associate Editor desk-screen plus 2–3 distinct-lens referees for the target venue, adversarially verified and synthesized into a referee report, a decision band, and a prioritized, skill-mapped fix list. A rehearsal that predicts the attac
rt-submission-readinessUse when an author is one revision away from submission and needs a venue-parameterized go/no-go scorecard on the actual manuscript: fit, identification, robustness, exhibits, exposition, venue mechanics, data/code, and pre-empted objections. Returns PASS/FLAG/FAIL per dimension, the blocking gaps,
rt-venue-integrityUse before submitting to a venue this repository does not cover, one that arrived by email solicitation, or one whose indexing status matters for a tenure or degree requirement. Runs a source-by-source verification protocol — indexing, publisher, editorial board, fees, retraction history — and repor
rt-venue-reframeUse after a rejection, or when switching target journals, to turn a manuscript framed for one venue into one framed for another. Produces a concrete reframing diff — introduction arc, contribution claim, evidence to add or cut, house style, format — by reading both venues' own packs. Complements rt-
rt-workflowUse to sequence a manuscript across venues — which cross-journal toolkit skill to invoke next, from picking a target journal through execution, submission-readiness, simulated review, rebuttal, and the replication package. Routes; it does not replace the per-journal depth packs or the specialized to
