rt-simulated-referee

Use 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 attack surface; it does not replace real review.

# Simulated Referee (rt-simulated-referee)

Run the substantive gauntlet before a real referee does. Full protocol + a worked example:
[`shared-resources/submission-readiness/simulated-referee.md`](../../../shared-resources/submission-readiness/simulated-referee.md).

## When to trigger

- After `rt-submission-readiness` clears the mechanical bar.
- When the author wants to know the decisive objection before submitting.

## Calibrate first (this is what makes it realistic)

Pull the venue's bar from the target pack, not generic intuition: acceptance/desk-reject
