Retarget Journal Skill

Switch a paper manuscript from one journal to another. Handles folder renaming, bibliography swaps, citation key updates, formatting changes, and compilation verification.

When to Use

• Switching a paper's target venue (e.g., Journal A to Journal B, Journal C to Journal D)
• After a rejection when resubmitting to a different journal
• When strategic decisions change the target venue mid-drafting

Before Starting

Ask the user for:

1. Current project path — where is the paper?
2. Target journal — full name and abbreviation
3. What changes? — some retargets are minor (formatting), others are major (restructuring)

Read the project's CLAUDE.md and README.md to understand current state.
