We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

5 rules. 0 are common, 5 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 4 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 5

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    must-fix versus clarify-only breakdown

    line 26
  2. Distinctive:

    Check that every promise in the response has a real execution path.

    line 37
  3. Distinctive:

    do not answer emotionally or argue without evidence

    line 41
  4. Distinctive:

    do not promise experiments you cannot realistically complete

    line 42
  5. Distinctive:

    keep each response aligned with one reviewer concern at a time

    line 44

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 4 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Purpose

Turn reviewer comments into a controlled rebuttal or revision workflow.

When To Use

  • writing a rebuttal after conference or journal review
  • planning a response-to-reviewers letter for revision
  • triaging many comments across several reviewers
  • deciding which comments require experiments, clarifications, or text edits

Inputs

  • reviewer comments or decision letter
  • current manuscript state and change constraints
  • available evidence, new analyses, or planned revisions

Outputs

  • issue matrix grouped by reviewer and theme
  • must-fix versus clarify-only breakdown
  • response draft with concise claim-evidence-action structure
  • revision checklist mapped back to comments
  • list of comments that cannot be fully addressed and why

Workflow

  1. Normalize comments into atomic issues instead of long paragraphs.
  2. Classify each issue as correction, clarification, experiment, scope, or disagreement.
  3. Map each issue to evidence and to the concrete manuscript change required.
  4. Draft responses that are respectful, specific, and non-defensive.
  5. Check that every promise in the response has a real execution path.

Constraints

  • do not answer emotionally or argue without evidence
  • do not promise experiments you cannot realistically complete
  • distinguish completed changes from planned future work
  • keep each response aligned with one reviewer concern at a time

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
