Individual skill
ci-workflow
Use as the entry point for any Critical Inquiry (CI) essay. Routes to the right CI sub-skill based on where you are in the lifecycle and which format (Article, Critical Response, Review) fits. CI is an interdisciplinary journal of criticism and theory in the arts and humanities; the router's job is to keep the project pointed at a bold theoretical intervention with interdisciplinary stakes. It dispatches; it does not draft content.

# Critical Inquiry Workflow Router (ci-workflow)
The orchestrator for a *Critical Inquiry* submission. Figure out the stage and the **format**, then
send the user to the matching skill. CI is **interdisciplinary criticism and theory** — not a single
discipline's house organ — so the router's first job is to make sure the essay is built around a
**theoretical intervention** that matters across fields, not a competent reading with no stakes.
## When to trigger
- Starting a new CI essay and unsure where to begin
- Mid-project and unsure which skill applies next
- Deciding among the **three formats** (Article, Critical Response, Review)
- Returning with a decision letter (route to `ci-revision-and-response`)
