What it does

Jeg Rebuttal is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when responding after a Journal of Economic Growth revise-and-resubmit to organize responses about growth mechanisms, model assumptions, empirical identification, calibration sensitivity, data availability, and Springer revision files.

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 Business, Finance & HR, covering Performance reviews and Peer review. 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

  • Responding after a Journal of Economic Growth revise-and-resubmit to organize responses about growth mechanisms
  • Model assumptions
  • Empirical identification
  • Calibration sensitivity

Example prompts

  • “/jeg-rebuttal”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Fit and contribution: growth mechanism not clear enough.
  2. Theory: assumptions, equilibrium, dynamics, comparative statics, or proofs.
  3. Empirics: identification, sample, robustness, historical measurement, or
  4. Calibration/simulation: parameter sources, targeted moments, sensitivity,
  5. Policy and files: data availability, declarations, source files.

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

Jeg Rebuttal loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 558 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~63
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.

R&R Rebuttal (jeg-rebuttal)

When to trigger

  • A JEG revision decision has arrived
  • Referees request stronger growth framing, theory, empirics, or calibration
  • You need a response letter and aligned manuscript changes

Triage

  1. Fit and contribution: growth mechanism not clear enough.
  2. Theory: assumptions, equilibrium, dynamics, comparative statics, or proofs.
  3. Empirics: identification, sample, robustness, historical measurement, or external validity.
  4. Calibration/simulation: parameter sources, targeted moments, sensitivity, transition paths.
  5. Policy and files: data availability, declarations, source files.

Response strategy

  • Lead with the editor's synthesis and the highest-value changes.
  • Add quantitative sensitivity where a calibration concern is central.
  • Add comparative estimates where empirical growth literature raises conflicting results.
  • Narrow claims when model or data scope is local.
  • Update source files and declarations alongside the manuscript.

Revision evidence map

For each major referee concern, identify the evidence type:

  • Mechanism concern -> new model intuition paragraph, proposition, or transition-path figure.
  • Assumption concern -> relaxed-assumption result, proof clarification, or sensitivity table.
  • Empirical concern -> identification diagnostic, alternative sample, or comparative estimate.
  • Calibration concern -> parameter-source table plus one-at-a-time and joint sensitivity.
  • Data concern -> Data Availability Statement, code archive, source-file update, or access note.

The response letter should show which evidence changed the manuscript, not just where text was added.

JEG referee objection playbook

Map the objections most common at this journal to their accepted repairs:

  • "Spatial autocorrelation inflates your significance" → recompute Conley SEs at several distance cutoffs, add a spatially correlated placebo distribution, and put both in the revised table notes — not only in the letter.
  • "The exclusion restriction is implausible" → confront each published alternative channel for the instrument, control for those channels directly, and add an over-identification or bounding exercise rather than restating the assumption with more conviction.
  • "Persistence with no mechanism" → bring intermediate-period outcomes, a decomposition, or a model section, and promote the mechanism evidence to a main exhibit.
  • "Calibration moments look cherry-picked" → add untargeted-moment validation plus one-at-a-time and joint sensitivity; tabulate every parameter's source.
  • "The country sample is too selective for a growth claim" → expand or re-weight the sample and bound the claim's scope explicitly in abstract and conclusion.
  • "This is not about growth" → reframe around divergence, convergence, or transition dynamics; growth editors rarely accept a fit defense made by assertion.

Worked vignette — answering a spatial-inference objection

Illustrative R&R: Referee 2 argues the headline t-statistic of 4.8 on a persistence coefficient is an artifact of spatial correlation. The response that works:

  1. Recompute Conley SEs at 100/250/500 km: t falls to 3.6/3.2/3.1 — significance survives; all three appear in the revised Table 2 notes.
  2. Generate 1,000 spatial-noise placebo treatments with a matched correlation range; the true coefficient sits above the 99th percentile of the placebo distribution (illustrative).
  3. Add macro-region fixed effects; the coefficient moves from 0.21 to 0.18, inside the original confidence band.
  4. Letter structure: quote the concern, give the three numbers, point to the exact revised table and figure, and state what changed in the text — two paragraphs, zero defensiveness.

Letter discipline for this venue

  • When concerns overlap across referees, order responses by growth substance — fit, mechanism, identification, calibration — and cross-reference instead of duplicating analyses under each referee number.
  • Quantify every concession: if the claim is narrowed, show the revised abstract sentence verbatim.
  • Fold every new analysis into the replication package and say so in the letter; at a venue this data-disciplined, revision credibility extends to the artifacts.
