publication-coach

Pre-submission diagnostic review for academic papers in finance and economics, based on Alex Edmans' "Learnings From 1,000 Rejections" (Review of Finance, 2023). Reads a paper draft (LaTeX, Word, or PDF) and produces a structured diagnostic report scoring the paper across three dimensions — Contribution, Execution, and Exposition — with specific flags for common desk-reject reasons and actionable suggestions. Use this skill whenever the user asks to review a paper before submission, check if a paper is ready for a top journal, diagnose rejection risk, improve publication chances, or asks "is my paper publishable?" Also use when the user mentions desk rejection, paper quality, contribution concerns, or wants feedback on a draft paper's strengths and weaknesses.
