What it does
Devpsych Workflow is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when starting or navigating any Developmental Psychology (APA) manuscript and you are unsure which sub-skill applies. Use when choosing a manuscript length tier or returning with a decision letter. Routes by lifecycle stage and by the developmental design (cross-sectional, longitudinal/cohort, micro-genetic, experiment with minors); it dispatches, it does not draft content.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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. 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.

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
Devpsych Workflow loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 445 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 starting or navigating any Developmental Psychology (APA) manuscript and you are unsure which sub-skill applies. Use when choosing a manuscript length tier or returning with a decision letter. Routes by lifecycle stage and by the developmental design (cross-sectional, longitudinal/cohort, micro-genetic, experiment with minors); it dispatches, it does not draft content.
Developmental Psychology Workflow Router (devpsych-workflow)
The orchestrator for a Developmental Psychology submission. This APA journal publishes empirical work on development across the life span, and its defining demand is a credible claim about developmental change — age effects, within-person change, or trajectories — reported under APA 7th + JARS, with masked review and Transparency and Openness Promotion (TOP) expectations. The router makes sure the developmental claim, the design, and the open-science package are all handled, then dispatches.
When to trigger
- Starting a new Developmental Psychology paper and unsure where to begin
- Mid-project and unsure which skill applies next
- Choosing a length tier (brief report vs. larger report vs. multi-study/longitudinal report)
- Returning with a decision letter (route to
devpsych-rebuttal)
First question: what kind of developmental claim and design?
| Situation | Design | Route note |
|---|---|---|
| Age differences at one time point | Cross-sectional | name the age/cohort confound early (devpsych-study-design) |
| Within-person change over time | Longitudinal / cohort | attrition + measurement invariance are load-bearing |
| Process of change in close-up | Micro-genetic | dense sampling; justify granularity |
| Causal manipulation with minors | Experiment | ethics/assent + age-appropriate task validity |
| Re-using a large panel (e.g., NICHD, ECLS) | Secondary analysis | declare provenance, derived measures, version |
Routing map (stage → skill)
Idea / fit + age scope? → devpsych-topic-selection
Developmental theory + hypotheses? → devpsych-theory-and-hypotheses
Where does it sit in the field? → devpsych-literature-positioning
Design / power / invariance / age? → devpsych-study-design
Growth-curve / multilevel / SEM? → devpsych-data-analysis
Trajectory exhibits (APA)? → devpsych-tables-figures
APA 7th + Public Significance? → devpsych-writing-style
Data/materials + preregistration? → devpsych-open-science-and-transparency
How will it be judged (masked)? → devpsych-review-process
Ready to submit (Editorial Mgr)? → devpsych-submission
Got an R&R / decision? → devpsych-rebuttalDefault order
topic-selection → theory-and-hypotheses → literature-positioning → study-design → data-analysis → tables-figures → writing-style → open-science-and-transparency → review-process → submission → rebuttal
If the design is prospective and confirmatory, pull study-design and open-science-and-transparency
forward so a preregistration and a sample-size justification exist before data collection.
Worked micro-example — routing a live project (illustrative)
A team has a three-wave accelerated longitudinal study of self-regulation (ages 4, 6, 8; some attrition), fitting growth curves, and a reviewer-anticipated worry about measurement invariance. The router walks them:
Claim: within-person growth in effortful control, age 4→8.
Design: longitudinal/cohort (accelerated) → invariance + attrition are central.
Entry: not idea-stage; they are at design hardening + analysis.
Route: study-design (invariance test plan; attrition/FIML; age-vs-cohort)
→ data-analysis (latent growth / multilevel; time coding)
→ tables-figures (spaghetti + mean-trajectory plot, CIs)
→ writing-style (APA 7th; Public Significance Statement)
→ open-science-and-transparency (data/scripts; prereg if confirmatory)
→ submission (masked preflight) ; on R&R → rebuttal.

Stage-triage table (symptom → skill)
| What the author says | Stage | Route to |
|---|---|---|
| "Is age difference enough, or do I need change?" | fit | devpsych-topic-selection |
| "Reviewer: is your construct the same at every age?" | design/analysis | devpsych-study-design + devpsych-data-analysis |
| "Cross-sectional age effect — but is it cohort?" | design | devpsych-study-design |
| "Where does the Public Significance Statement go?" | writing | devpsych-writing-style |
| "Do I need to share data and preregister?" | transparency | devpsych-open-science-and-transparency |
| "I have an R&R" | revision | devpsych-rebuttal |
Routing pitfalls specific to this venue
- Sending an age-comparison straight to
devpsych-data-analysiswithout first separating age from cohort and confirming measurement invariance — the change claim collapses if the construct shifts. - Deferring
devpsych-open-science-and-transparency; under TOP, deposits and a preregistration are far cheaper to build before data than to retrofit at acceptance.
Anti-patterns
- Treating a cross-sectional age difference as developmental change without addressing cohort confounds
- Interpreting trajectories before establishing longitudinal measurement invariance
- Forgetting the Public Significance Statement (an APA requirement on the abstract page)
- Ignoring masked-review anonymization in the manuscript or in shared links
