What it does

Aeri Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for American Economic Review: Insights (AER: Insights) via the AEA/ScholarOne submission system — the word-count and exhibit-count gates, abstract limit, fees, author metadata, declarations, and the AEA Data and Code Availability Policy. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `templates/checklist.md`).

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

  • Author metadata
  • The AEA Data and Code Availability Policy

Example prompts

  • “/aeri-submission”

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

Aeri Submission loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 582 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~87
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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 running the final pre-submission preflight for American Economic Review: Insights (AER: Insights) via the AEA/ScholarOne submission system — the word-count and exhibit-count gates, abstract limit, fees, author metadata, declarations, and the AEA Data and Code Availability Policy. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Submission Preflight (aeri-submission)

When to trigger

  • "Submitting tomorrow" — last check before pressing submit on the AEA portal
  • Verifying the word count and exhibit count clear the auto-return gates
  • Unsure which files, fees, and declarations the AEA system expects
  • Confirming single-blind author metadata, declarations, and the data/code statement

Process facts (official AEA baseline checked 2026-06-20)

  • AER: Insights is an AEA journal for short, single-idea general-interest papers. Submission is through the AEA-linked ScholarOne Manuscripts system.
  • Hard length gate: main text ≤7,000 words with no exhibits; each exhibit subtracts 200 words; maximum five exhibits (figures + tables combined), each ≤1 page. The word count includes body, footnotes, endnotes, and in-paper appendices; it excludes title, authors, abstract, acknowledgement footnote, references, exhibits, and the Supplemental Appendix. Papers over the word or exhibit limit are returned unreviewed.
  • Abstract: ≤100 words.
  • Fees: AEA members — high-income US$200 / middle-income US$100 / low-income US$0; nonmembers — US$300 / US$200 / US$0; papers rejected without review receive a 50 percent submission-fee refund. Publication fee: US$15 per typeset page for applicable submissions.
  • Single-blind review: author identity is visible to referees; referee identity remains anonymous to authors. The manuscript should include title, byline, and author affiliations on the first page, not a separate title page.
  • Metadata: prepare keywords and JEL classifications if the portal prompts for them; use the AEA JEL guide for classification choices.
  • Data and code: submission must comply with the AEA Data and Code Availability Policy; data, code, and documentation sufficient for replication are required before acceptance, verified by the AEA Data Editor (deposit to the AEA Data and Code Repository / openICPSR). See aeri-replication-package.

Preflight checklist

Length & format (the auto-return gates)
  • Main text ≤ 7,000 − 200 × (#exhibits) words, counted per the AEA scope rules above
  • ≤5 exhibits (figures + tables), each ≤1 page
  • Abstract ≤100 words
  • No asterisks/boldface for significance; SEs / confidence sets reported
  • Supplemental Appendix carries everything pushed out of the main text
Author metadata & declarations
  • Title, byline, and author affiliations appear on the manuscript first page; no separate title page
  • Acknowledgement footnote covers email, author order, funding, personal acknowledgements, IRB details if applicable, and RCT registration if applicable
  • Keywords and JEL classifications prepared if requested by the portal
Show full SKILL.md (229 more words)Show less
Files, fees & declarations
  • Main manuscript PDF, word-count PDF/record, and Supplemental Appendix uploaded as the system expects
  • Submission fee ready for the correct member/income band; publication-fee implications understood
  • AEA Data and Code Availability Policy acknowledged; data/code plan ready
  • Separate disclosure statement for each author; AI not listed as an author; AI use disclosed if applicable; not under review elsewhere

Counting words the way the AEA counts them

The auto-return gate is enforced on a specific scope, so count it correctly:

  • Include: the main body, footnotes, endnotes, and in-paper appendices.
  • Exclude: title, author names, abstract, the acknowledgement footnote, the reference list, the exhibits themselves, and the Supplemental Appendix.
  • Then subtract 200 words per exhibit from the 7,000 ceiling: a paper with five exhibits has a 6,000-word main-text budget. A common mistake is counting only the body and forgetting footnotes/in-paper appendices, then discovering the true count is over at the portal.

Reconcile this with aeri-writing-style (cutting to the cap) and aeri-tables-figures (the exhibit budget) before you reach the portal.

Anti-patterns

  • Submitting over the word or exhibit cap (auto-return without review)
  • Abstract over 100 words; exhibits over one page
  • Stripping author information as if identities were hidden from referees, contrary to AEA single-blind instructions
  • Significance asterisks/boldface in exhibits
  • Treating the data/code policy as a post-acceptance afterthought

Output format

【Word count】main text = __ ; cap = 7000 − 200×__ = __ ; under? [Y/N]
【Exhibits】__ / 5, each ≤1 page? [Y/N]
【Abstract】__ words (≤100?) [Y/N]
【Author metadata】title/byline/affiliations and acknowledgement footnote complete? [Y/N]
【Classifications】keywords/JEL ready if portal prompts? [Y/N]
【Fee + declarations + data/code】fee ready; disclosures/AI/data policy acknowledged? [Y/N]
【Next step】submit via AEA portal → aeri-referee-strategy for what to expect
