Paper Submission Evaluator

Overview

This skill evaluates an academic paper and produces a comprehensive submission target report. It performs four assessments:

1. Contribution Novelty Score (0-100): How much the paper advances existing literature, assessed via web search for related work.
2. Best-Fit SSCI Journal Fields: Which ABS field categories best match the paper.
3. Appropriate ABS Star Rating: What star level (1, 2, 3, 4, 4*) the paper's quality warrants.
4. Top 20 Journal Recommendations: From the 2 best-fitting fields, at the recommended ABS star level, list 20 SSCI-indexed journals with rationale.

The ABS journal list is read from C:\Users\Admin\.claude\skills\paper-submission\asset\Business School Journal List 2023.pdf (referred to as AJG2025). This file is bundled with the skill in the asset/ folder, so it is always available regardless of changes to the user's desktop.

The final report is saved as target.pdf in the paper's directory.
