Individual skill

journal-selector

Resolve a target food/nutrition journal to its author-guideline skill and formatting constraints. Use at the start of writing, formatting, or submission-prep for a food-science paper, and whenever the user names a journal they want to publish in or format their manuscript for, to load that journal's rules (word/abstract limits, structure, reference/citation style, figure spec). Triggers: which journal, target journal, publish on a journal, publish in a journal, I want to publish on Food Chemistry, submit to LWT, format for a journal, format my manuscript for a named journal, edit the manuscript based on a journal's style, journal style, journal reference style, journal citation style, submission guidelines, prepare for submission, pick a journal.

# Journal Selector — Route a Manuscript to Its Journal Skill

> **Shared procedure, not an installed skill.** `journal-selector` is **not**
> registered in the plugin's skill list — it is machinery the other skills use, so it
> doesn't clutter the user's `/` menu. The `food-*` and `agri-*` skills **load this
> file** (`journal-selector/SKILL.md`) and follow the steps below; users reach it
> automatically by naming a target journal to any of them. It still ships with the
> plugin, exactly like the `journals/*` author-guideline files it resolves to.

Maps a target journal to the correct `journals/<folder>` author-guideline skill
and returns its `## Formatting constraints`. Authoritative mappings:
[food (60)](../journals/_coverage.md) ·
[nutrition (59)](../journals/_coverage_nutrition.md) ·
[multidisciplinary (35)](../journals/_coverage_multidisciplinary.md) ·
