What it does

Econfin Idea Finder is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. 公司金融实证研究的"漏斗式选题查找器"。互动开场先后询问 (1) 研究方向、(2) 候选标题数量 N, 再扫描全球文献(已出版英文学术期刊 + SSRN working paper + 全球高校 department seminar 1 年内日程),基于 Edmans (2024) "1000 Rejections" 红线生成 N 个候选标题,通过并行 subagent(Agent 工具)批量生成计划书 + 查新;每个 subagent 必须强制调用 Skill 工具加载 econfin-proposal 与 novelty-check 两个预设 skill 完成各自模块,只有当 novelty score = 9 时(即 JF/JFE/RFS 顶刊层次),subagent 才把 proposal + 查新报告合并的 md 写入 F:\Dropbox\CC\选题大全\<研究方向短名\(以"简短选题名称-分数"命名,子文件夹名由 Step 0 从用户输入的研究方向派生);< 9 分的选题在 subagent 内部直接丢弃,绝不写盘、绝不输出。当用户说"找选题"、"帮我找选题"、"想做 X 方向"、 "empirical…

Its SKILL.md is about 3.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/edmans_guardrails_compressed.md` and `references/wrds_data_map.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Subagents. It works with Dropbox. The repository describes itself as: 🔬 A curated collection of 23,000+ agent skills for empirical research across 8 social science disciplines. | 精选 23,000+ AI Agent 技能库,覆盖8大社会科学学科的实证研究。CoPaper.AI…

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Subagents

Example prompts

  • “漏斗式选题查找器”
  • “1000 Rejections”
  • “简短选题名称-分数”
  • “/econfin-idea-finder”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(*), Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, WebSearch, WebFetch, Agent, Skill, mcp__codex__codex, mcp__codex__codex-reply

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. 互动开场 — 先问方向,再问数量
  2. 全球文献全景扫描
  3. 基于 Edmans 红线生成 $N 个候选标题
  4. 并行 subagent 批量生成计划书 + 查新 + 合并 MD
  5. 汇总并写入索引

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9fa87d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash(*)
    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • WebSearch
    • WebFetch
    • Agent
    • Skill

    …and 2 more on the same allowed-tools line.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown, bash and dot).

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • papers.ssrn.com
    • chicagobooth.edu
    • finance.wharton.upenn.edu
    • mitsloan.mit.edu

    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

Econfin Idea Finder loads about 3.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 153 tokens; SKILL.md has 865 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~153
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.7k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~8k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash(*), Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, WebSearch, WebFetch, Agent, Skill, mcp__codex__codex, mcp__c

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 865 words (~3,722 tokens).

“一位有 JF/JFE/RFS 发表经验、做过 AE 的资深公司金融实证研究者。你已读过 Edmans (2024) "Learnings From 1000 Rejections",已内化 "convex combination 不构成贡献"的红线。”
