Use when deciding which jole-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic selection through rebuttal for a Journal of Labor Economics (JOLE) submission. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.

# JOLE Workflow Router (jole-workflow)
## Overview
This is the router. It does not replace any specialized skill. It tells you **which jole-* skill to use at the current stage** of a manuscript aimed at the *Journal of Labor Economics*.
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as JOLE — a general-interest, peer-reviewed **quarterly** in labor economics, published by the **University of Chicago Press** for the **Society of Labor Economists (SOLE)**. JOLE takes both theoretical and applied/empirical labor work (wages and earnings, employment, human capital and education, labor supply and demand, family economics, discrimination, unions, migration, institutions and policy). Operational tells that you are at JOLE and not a sibling journal: **Editor-in-Chief Peter Kuhn**, a **non-refundable submission fee** ($100 SOLE members / $175 non-members since July 1, 2018; decisions withheld until paid), **single-blind** review via **Editorial Manager** (so the manuscript is **NOT** anonymized — a title page names all co-authors), a **100-word abstract**, a **~20,000-word** soft cap counting each full-page table/figure as 500 words, **Chicago author-date** references ordered in-text chronologically then alphabetically, and deposit to the **JOLE Dataverse Repository** under the AER data policy. Before upload, live-check the portal path, fee prompts, editor conflicts, and data-policy wording from the official source map.
## When to trigger
- The user asks "what should I do next?"
- The user hands over a draft and needs the current bottleneck diagnosed
- Work is ping-ponging between empirics, framing, writing, and response letters
- A JOLE decision letter arrived and the user needs to switch into revision mode
