Er Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when polishing the language and rhetoric of an 《经济研究》 manuscript — eliminating empty-significance phrases, fixing vague policy talk, replacing method-flexing with mechanism, and aligning tense / person / hedging with CSSCI house style. 本技能服务于《经济研究》(Economic Research Journal, ERJ)。
Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
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.
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
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.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Er Style loads about 774 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 199 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.
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.

.claude/skills/er-style/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).| 问题类型 | 黑名单(删/改) | 白名单(替换为) |
|---|---|---|
| 空洞价值 | "具有重要的理论价值" | "为理解 X 提供了 Y 视角下的理论框架" |
| 空洞意义 | "对 XX 具有重要的参考价值" | "本文结果意味着 XX 政策的传导渠道应纳入 YY" |
| 泛泛建议 | "应加强监管 / 完善制度 / 推进改革" | "监管部门应在 X 环节建立 Y 制度,重点关注 Z 类企业" |
| 方法炫耀 | "本文使用复杂的 DSGE 模型" | "本文构建 DSGE 模型,引入 X 摩擦以模拟 Y 情形" |
| 贡献模糊 | "丰富了现有研究" | "首次利用交叠 DID 识别策略考察了 X 对 Y 的影响" |
| 文献堆砌 | "(张三,2020;李四,2021;...)" | 按贡献分述:理论文献一段、实证文献一段、本文位置一段 |
| 表格无解读 | "表 3 报告了基准回归结果。" | "表 3 显示,X 上升 1 个标准差使 Y 提高 0.04 个标准差,约相当于均值的 X%" |
| 公式无含义 | 公式后直接进入下一段 | "式(3)右端第二项刻画了 X 的调整成本,当 Y > 0 时..." |
| 套话型贡献 | "为 XX 提供新的视角" | "区别于 XXX(202X)使用的 OLS,本文..." |
概念在首次出现处定义一次,此后全篇只用同一个名字。常见翻车点:
❌ 改写前:"通过使用双重差分模型进行的实证检验可以发现,政策的实施对于企业的创新水平的提升具有显著的正向的促进作用。"
✅ 改写后:"双重差分估计显示,政策使企业专利申请量提高约 8%,相当于样本均值的四分之一。"
改写删掉了五个"的"、一个悬空主语和一处"显著促进"套话,并补上了经济量级。
每个段落第一句必须是概括句,后续句子是支撑。审稿人快速读完每段首句应能复原文章逻辑。
错误:
张三(2020)研究发现...。李四(2021)发现...。王五(2022)发现...。
正确:
既有研究就 X 对 Y 的影响达成了两种对立的判断(张三,2020;李四,2021)。一类研究认为...,另一类研究认为...。两种判断的分歧在于...。

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill er-style -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (Economic-Research-Journal-Skills/skills/er-style in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .claude/skills/er-style in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill er-style -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (Economic-Research-Journal-Skills/skills/er-style in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .agents/skills/er-style in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill er-style -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/er-style, .gemini/skills/er-style, .github/skills/er-style and .opencode/skills/er-style in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Er Style is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Er Style is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 774 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Er Style: Impeccable Design Polish (nexu-io/open-design, 100k stars), Team Polish (Donchitos/Claude-Code-Game-Studios, 26k stars), Nature-Style Academic Polishing (Yuan1z0825/nature-skills, 47k stars) and Code Polish (sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, 47k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
