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

Bjps Tables Figures loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 71 tokens; SKILL.md has 644 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~71
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.

Use when building tables and figures for a British Journal of Political Science (BJPS) manuscript so exhibits are self-contained, accessible, fit Cambridge's size limits, and earn their place under the word budget. Designs exhibits; it does not run the analysis.

Tables & Figures (bjps-tables-figures)

Exhibits are where an expert reviewer checks whether the result is real. At BJPS they must also fit Cambridge's physical limits — tables within roughly 190 × 120 mm, figures within roughly 200 × 133 mm at ≥ 300 dpi (待核实 exact current figures) — and they count against the word budget, so every exhibit must pull its weight.

When to trigger

  • Designing the main results table/figure or a key descriptive exhibit
  • Deciding what belongs in the article vs. the online appendix
  • A reviewer found an exhibit unclear, mislabeled, or non-self-contained
  • Trimming to the word cap by moving exhibits to the appendix

Principles

  1. Self-contained. A reader should understand each exhibit from its title, axis/column labels, and note alone — without hunting through the text. State units, sample, N, and what the estimate is.
  2. Figures over dense tables for effects. Coefficient/forest plots, marginal-effects and predicted-probability plots, event-study and RD plots communicate magnitude and uncertainty better than a wall of coefficients. Show intervals.
  3. Accessible. Colourblind-safe palettes; legible in grayscale; no chartjunk, no 3D, no needless colour. Reviewers and readers must parse it quickly.
  4. Fit Cambridge's limits. Size tables/figures to the page box; supply figures at ≥ 300 dpi in a vector or high-resolution format; keep fonts legible after reduction (待核实 exact specs).
  5. Main text vs. appendix. Keep the few exhibits that carry the argument in the article; move balance tables, full specifications, and robustness grids to the online appendix (excluded from the word count). This is also how you fit under the word cap.
  6. Reproducible. Each exhibit is generated by the master script; numbers match the deposited replication package exactly (see bjps-transparency-and-data).

Discipline-specific exhibits

  • Maps for geographic/spatial variation; network diagrams where structure is the point.
  • Conjoint AMCE plots; survey-experiment treatment-effect plots.
  • Cross-national panels: keep country/year labelling legible; avoid spaghetti plots.
  • For qualitative work: timelines, causal-process diagrams, evidence tables linking claims to sources.

Execution bridge (StatsPAI / Stata MCP)

Generate exhibits from the fitted result, not by retyping numbers (the usual source of body-vs-supplement drift). Full map: execution-with-mcp. BJPS is comparative/IR-heavy — cross-country panels with confounded institutions; emphasize fixed effects, clustering, and weak-IV-robust inference.

  • Tables: etable (multi-model columns) or did_summary_to_latex straight from the result_id.
  • Figures: plot_from_result / enhanced_event_study_plot / event_study_table — axis units and the SE/clustering note baked in.
  • Every note names the estimator + clustering and states the effect size in interpretable units.

Anti-patterns

  • Tables that require the prose to be intelligible (not self-contained)
  • Reporting significance stars with no effect size or interval
  • Cramming every robustness check into the main text (blows the word budget — use the appendix)
  • Colour-only encoding that fails in grayscale or for colourblind readers
  • Figures supplied below 300 dpi or oversized for Cambridge's page box
  • Exhibit numbers/values that don't match the deposited code output

Output format

【Main exhibit】what it shows + why a figure/table
【Self-contained?】title + labels + note + N/units present? [Y/N]
【Accessible?】grayscale-legible + colourblind-safe? [Y/N]
【Fits Cambridge box?】size + ≥300 dpi? [Y/N]
【Article vs appendix】split decided, word-budget impact noted
【Reproducible?】generated by master script, matches package? [Y/N]
【Next】bjps-writing-style

The one-exhibit test (BJPS-specific)

For each main exhibit, ask: Could a reader outside my subfield, who skips the prose, grasp the finding and its uncertainty from this exhibit alone? If not, it is either under-labelled or doing too much. BJPS's broad readership means the carrying exhibit must be legible to a generalist — a dense country-specific table that only an area specialist can read is a positioning failure as much as a design one. Keep one decisive figure in the main text; relegate the supporting grid to the appendix.

Calibration anchors (hedged)

  • Exhibits cost words and page space, and BJPS holds figures to Cambridge's size and resolution box — design for the printed page, not just the screen (待核实 exact current specs).
  • Because the materials are deposited to the BJPolS Dataverse, every printed number must trace to the master script; an exhibit the deposited code cannot regenerate is a transparency liability.
  • A figure with intervals almost always beats a stars-only table for showing magnitude and uncertainty to a cross-subfield reader.
