What it does

Aejpol Replication Package is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when assembling the data and code deposit for an AEJ: Economic Policy manuscript to satisfy the AEA Data and Code Availability Policy and the AEA Data Editor's pre-publication reproducibility check. Builds the openICPSR deposit, README, and restricted-data access paths; it does not run the analysis or write the paper.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Research & Science, covering Econometrics and empirical research, Reproducible research and Technical documentation. The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. | 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Econometrics and empirical research
  • Tasks that involve Reproducible research
  • Tasks that involve Technical documentation

Example prompts

  • “/aejpol-replication-package”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Overview — what the package contains and the paper it reproduces.
  2. Data availability statement — each dataset: public / restricted; source citation; how to obtain.
  3. Computational requirements — OS, software + versions, every package/.ado + version, hardware.
  4. Description of programs/code — the run_all master and what each script does.
  5. Instructions to replicators — exact run order and expected runtime.
  6. Map from code to output — which script produces which table/figure/in-text number.
  7. Notes — any partial-reproducibility scope and why.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Aejpol Replication Package loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 88 tokens; SKILL.md has 682 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~88
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Use when assembling the data and code deposit for an AEJ: Economic Policy manuscript to satisfy the AEA Data and Code Availability Policy and the AEA Data Editor's pre-publication reproducibility check. Builds the openICPSR deposit, README, and restricted-data access paths; it does not run the analysis or write the paper.

Replication Package — AEA Data Editor Compliance (aejpol-replication-package)

When to trigger

  • A conditional acceptance / R&R asks for the data and code deposit
  • You want to build the replication package as you go (recommended — the check is before publication)
  • Some data are proprietary or restricted and you need a compliant access path
  • The AEA Data Editor returned the package with required changes

The AEA reproducibility regime (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准)

AEJ: Policy is an AEA journal and follows the AEA Data and Code Availability Policy. For accepted papers, authors deposit data, code, and documentation in the AEA Data and Code Repository at openICPSR, and the AEA Data Editor (Lars Vilhuber) runs a reproducibility check before the paper is published, not after. A Data and Code Availability Statement is required. Build the deposit to pass on the first pass.

What the deposit must contain
  • All code that produces every table, figure, and in-text number, organized so a single master script (run_all) regenerates the results from the analysis data.
  • Data that can be shared, in the repository; for data that cannot, the exact provenance and access instructions (see restricted-data path below).
  • A README following the AEA Data Editor's template: data sources and citations, data-availability statement, computational requirements (software + versions + packages), runtime, the map from code files to exhibits, and instructions to reproduce.
  • Dependencies pinned: Stata .ado versions, R renv.lock, Python requirements.txt/conda env; seeds set and reported for any simulation/bootstrap/randomization inference.
Restricted / proprietary data path
  • State the Data Availability Statement clearly: which data are public, which are restricted, and how a replicator obtains the restricted parts (provider, application process, cost, approximate wait).
  • Provide everything that can be shared (cleaning and analysis code, derived public extracts, synthetic or example data) so the Data Editor can verify the pipeline even without the raw restricted file.
  • Confirm the access path is real and current — the Data Editor verifies it.
  • Note any partial-reproducibility scope (e.g., one table from confidential data) in the README.
Code posting during review

Review is single-blind, so the submission need not be anonymized; the openICPSR deposit is prepared at acceptance. Posting a working-paper code repository earlier is fine and does not conflict with the review process.

Checklist

  • Data and Code Availability Statement drafted (public vs. restricted, sources cited)
  • One master script regenerates every exhibit and in-text number from analysis data
  • README follows the AEA Data Editor template (sources, requirements, runtime, code→exhibit map)
  • Software, package, and .ado versions pinned; seeds set and reported
  • Restricted data: provenance + concrete access instructions + shareable code/extracts provided
  • Deposit targets the AEA Data and Code Repository at openICPSR
  • Ran the package clean on a fresh machine/folder before submitting to the Data Editor
Show full SKILL.md (244 more words)Show less

Anti-patterns

  • Treating reproducibility as a post-acceptance afterthought — the check is pre-publication
  • A README that lists files but no code→exhibit map or version/runtime information
  • "Data available on request" with no access process for restricted data (non-compliant)
  • Unpinned package versions or unset seeds, so results do not regenerate
  • Hard-coded absolute paths that break on the Data Editor's machine
  • Leaving an in-text number that no script in the deposit produces

README skeleton (AEA Data Editor template, abbreviated)

A compliant README typically carries these sections, in order:

  1. Overview — what the package contains and the paper it reproduces.
  2. Data availability statement — each dataset: public / restricted; source citation; how to obtain.
  3. Computational requirements — OS, software + versions, every package/.ado + version, hardware.
  4. Description of programs/code — the run_all master and what each script does.
  5. Instructions to replicators — exact run order and expected runtime.
  6. Map from code to output — which script produces which table/figure/in-text number.
  7. Notes — any partial-reproducibility scope and why.

Worked vignette (illustrative)

A health-policy paper uses confidential claims data plus public state-policy data. Compliant deposit: a Data Availability Statement marking the claims data restricted (provider, DUA process, ~3-month wait) and the policy data public; the full cleaning/analysis code; a synthetic claims extract so the Data Editor can run the pipeline end-to-end; a README mapping 04_did.do → Table 3 and Figure 2 with Stata 18 + csdid/reghdfe versions and an 18-minute runtime. The package regenerates every exhibit from the synthetic + public data on a clean machine.

Output format
