# HLR Workflow Router (hlr-workflow)

The orchestrator for a Harvard Law Review submission. HLR is **student-edited, not peer-reviewed**, and
generalist across all of law. The router's first job is to set the right mental model: you write a
**near-final** article, run a **preemption check** before drafting, submit broadly across peer journals
via **Scholastica** (but to **HLR through its own submission system**, not Scholastica), leverage offers
with **expedite** requests, and then survive an intensive
student-editor edit plus a full **cite-check / source-pull**. Figure out the stage, then dispatch.

## When to trigger

- Starting a new HLR piece and unsure where to begin
- Mid-project and unsure which skill applies next
- Deciding the piece type (Article, Essay, Book Review, or a Supreme Court Foreword/Comment by invitation)
