What it does

Jebo Literature Positioning is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when staking a Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization (JEBO) manuscript's contribution against the behavioral, experimental, and organizational literatures. Builds the "what we knew / what was missing / what this adds" frame and a replication/extension stance; it does not invent citations.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 Databases, covering Positioning and messaging, Database administration and Citation management. 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

  • Staking a Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization (JEBO) manuscripts contribution against the behavioral
  • Organizational literatures

Example prompts

  • “what we knew / what was missing / what this adds”
  • “/jebo-literature-positioning”

Workflow steps

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

  1. What we knew. Name the 2–4 anchor results the paper builds on, by mechanism, not by author-name-dropping. ("Other-regarding preferences…
  2. What was missing or contested. The gap must be a behavioral gap — an untested moderator, an unmodeled belief, an unresolved tension…
  3. What this adds. State the increment in one sentence and match it to evidence the paper actually delivers.

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

Jebo Literature Positioning loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 561 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

Builds the "what we knew / what was missing / what this adds" frame and a replication/extension stance; it does not invent citations.

Literature Positioning (jebo-literature-positioning)

When to trigger

  • The intro lists prior work but never says what was missing
  • A referee will ask "how is this different from [the obvious prior experiment]?" and you have no crisp answer
  • The paper replicates or extends a known result and you need to position that honestly
  • The contribution spans two literatures (e.g., social preferences + organizational design) and the bridge is unclear

How JEBO referees read a contribution

JEBO referees come from several traditions (behavioral, experimental, evolutionary, organizational), so the positioning must speak to whichever community owns the result while remaining legible to the others. The journal values cumulative, mechanism-level progress: a paper earns its place by sharpening, bounding, reconciling, or overturning a specific behavioral claim, not by being the first to run a particular task. Because JEBO publishes replications and close extensions more readily than top-5 general-interest journals, an honest "we replicate X and show it breaks under condition Y" is a legitimate, publishable contribution — but only if positioned as such, not disguised as wholly novel.

Build the frame in three moves:

  1. What we knew. Name the 2–4 anchor results the paper builds on, by mechanism, not by author-name-dropping. ("Other-regarding preferences predict positive giving in dictator games; giving falls under earned endowments and social distance.")
  2. What was missing or contested. The gap must be a behavioral gap — an untested moderator, an unmodeled belief, an unresolved tension between two findings, a mechanism never separated from a confound — not merely "no one used my dataset."
  3. What this adds. State the increment in one sentence and match it to evidence the paper actually delivers.

Contribution archetypes JEBO accepts

ArchetypeWhat positions it wellFailure mode
New mechanism / moderatorshows a previously-unidentified driver of a known behavior"novelty" that is really a re-label of a known effect
Reconciliationresolves a tension between two prior findings with a unifying designcherry-picking which prior result to cite
Bounded replicationreplicates and maps the boundary conditions of an influential resulthiding that it is a replication to seem more novel
Field test of a lab regularitytakes a lab effect to a consequential field/organizational settingclaiming external validity the design cannot support
Theory→prediction→testderives and tests a sharp behavioral predictiontesting a prediction so loose any result confirms it
Show full SKILL.md (181 more words)Show less

Positioning the replication/extension stance

If the paper is partly a replication, say so in the intro and frame the value added — new population, new incentive scale, new moderator, pre-registered confirmation of a contested result. JEBO referees punish disguised replications far more than honest ones.

Checklist

  • "What we knew / what was missing / what this adds" stated in three sentences, organized by mechanism
  • The gap is behavioral and specific, not "no prior paper used this data/task"
  • Anchor literature spans the relevant JEBO communities the result must satisfy
  • If a replication/extension, it is labeled as such with the value-added named
  • The claimed increment matches the evidence delivered later in the paper
  • Citations are real; no invented exemplar papers (verify before asserting)

Anti-patterns

  • A literature review that summarizes papers serially instead of building toward the gap
  • Inflating novelty by ignoring the closest prior experiment a referee will instantly recall
  • A disguised replication presented as wholly new
  • Positioning only within one tradition when the result must also satisfy a neighboring JEBO community
  • Bridging two literatures with a hand-wave instead of an explicit mechanism-level link
