Individual skill
jaar-workflow
Use as the entry point for any Journal of the American Academy of Religion (JAAR) manuscript. Routes to the right JAAR sub-skill by lifecycle stage, and enforces the journal's gatekeeping demand up front — the article must speak to a question of broad and fundamental interest to the study of religion, not just a subfield. It dispatches; it does not draft content.

# JAAR Workflow Router (jaar-workflow)
The orchestrator for a JAAR submission. JAAR's editorial office reads **every** submission and, before
any peer review, asks one decisive question: does this article address a problem of **"broad and
fundamental interest to the study of religion"** and reach **beyond the sub-specialty** it comes from?
If not, the editor **returns it for reframing before review**. The router makes you answer that first.
## When to trigger
- Starting a JAAR article and unsure where to begin
- Mid-project and unsure which skill applies next
- A draft reads as a contribution to one tradition/subfield only (reframing risk)
- Returning with a decision letter (route to `jaar-revision-and-response`)
