What it does

Jbf Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for the Journal of Banking & Finance (JBF) via Elsevier Editorial Manager — the USD 350 submission fee, double-anonymized manuscript plus separate title page, 250-word abstract, keywords, Highlights, SSRN posting, data statement, and the generative-AI declaration. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k 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 Business, Finance & HR. 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

  • Double-anonymized manuscript plus separate title page
  • 250-word abstract
  • The generative-AI declaration

Example prompts

  • “/jbf-submission”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Final anonymization sweep: body text, acknowledgements, footnotes, file metadata.
  2. Fee path confirmed: budget approval for the USD 350 or the waiver code in hand.
  3. Declarations drafted offline (AI use, COI, funding, data availability) for pasting into Editorial Manager.
  4. Upload in order: separate title page, anonymized manuscript, Highlights, declarations.
  5. Record the SSRN opt-in decision and the suggested/excluded reviewer list.

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

Jbf Submission loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 585 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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 the Journal of Banking & Finance (JBF) via Elsevier Editorial Manager — the USD 350 submission fee, double-anonymized manuscript plus separate title page, 250-word abstract, keywords, Highlights, SSRN posting, data statement, and the generative-AI declaration. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Submission Preflight (jbf-submission)

When to trigger

  • Submitting this week — last check before pressing submit in Editorial Manager
  • Unsure what Editorial Manager expects at initial submission
  • Confirming anonymization, fee, and declarations are JBF-compliant

Process facts (verified 2026-06-20 on the official ScienceDirect guide)

  • Elsevier; submission exclusively through Editorial Manager (via the journal homepage on ScienceDirect).
  • A USD 350 fee applies to unsolicited new manuscripts, paid in Editorial Manager. It is non-refundable, and a paper may be desk-rejected without review even after payment. Waiver/discount codes exist for authors with limited means or from developing countries — request one pre-submission, then enter it in Editorial Manager.
  • Review is double anonymized: an anonymized manuscript (no names, affiliations, or identifying acknowledgements) plus a separate title page.
  • Provide editable Word/LaTeX source files; Editorial Manager converts uploaded article files into a single peer-review PDF.
  • First submission has no strict reference-format requirement if references are complete and consistent; JBF's proof-stage style is numbered Elsevier references.
  • Provide 1-7 English keywords. Keep JEL codes if useful for finance discoverability, but do not treat them as a current JBF hard rule.
  • Abstract: concise/factual and ≤250 words.
  • Highlights: encouraged, submitted as a separate editable file, 3-5 bullets, each no more than 85 characters.
  • Data: Elsevier Option C applies. Deposit/cite/link research data or state why data cannot be shared; a data statement is required at submission.
  • Generative-AI use must be declared. Free SSRN posting is offered (public once past initial desk review).

Preflight checklist

  • Anonymized manuscript (no identity in body or PDF metadata; self-citations neutral)
  • Separate title page (authors, affiliations, corresponding author, acknowledgements, funding)
  • Consistent references; 1-7 English keywords; optional JEL codes; Highlights (3-5 bullets, <=85 characters each)
  • Abstract is concise/factual and <=250 words
  • Fee path settled: pay USD 350 or enter an approved waiver/discount code
  • Declared any generative-AI use; opted into SSRN posting if desired
  • Suggested/excluded reviewers; cover letter (question, design, headline result, JBF fit)
  • COI/funding disclosures; not under review elsewhere; data statement plus deposit/link or non-sharing reason (see jbf-replication-and-data-policy)

Cover letter skeleton (JBF-tuned)

Dear Editors,
We submit "[title]" for consideration at the Journal of Banking & Finance.
[1-2 sentences: finance question + setting, anchored in banking /
 intermediation / markets / regulation]
[1 sentence: identification or design in plain terms]
[1 sentence: headline result with magnitude in finance units]
[1 sentence: contribution relative to the closest JBF-relevant strand]
The manuscript is not under review elsewhere; the fee/waiver, declarations,
and data availability statement are complete in Editorial Manager.
Show full SKILL.md (255 more words)Show less

Highlights drafting (illustrative)

Elsevier Highlights are short result bullets: 3-5 bullets, each no more than 85 characters including spaces.

  • "LCR adoption shifts large-bank lending toward short maturities" — good: result-forward.
  • "We study liquidity regulation using a large panel" — bad: describes activity, not a finding.
  • Lead every bullet with the finding; reserve one bullet for the policy-relevant magnitude.

Submission-day order of operations

  1. Final anonymization sweep: body text, acknowledgements, footnotes, file metadata.
  2. Fee path confirmed: budget approval for the USD 350 or the waiver code in hand.
  3. Declarations drafted offline (AI use, COI, funding, data availability) for pasting into Editorial Manager.
  4. Upload in order: separate title page, anonymized manuscript, Highlights, declarations.
  5. Record the SSRN opt-in decision and the suggested/excluded reviewer list.

Anti-patterns

  • Budgeting zero for the fee, or expecting a refund after a desk reject
  • Leaving author identity in the manuscript or PDF metadata under double-anonymized review
  • Forgetting the separate title page, or the AI-use declaration
