What it does
Jel Editor Strategy is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when working with the editor and referees of a Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) survey — scope negotiation, what survey referees evaluate, and revision expectations. Plans the interaction; it does not run the submission preflight (jel-submission) or draft the response letter (jel-revision).
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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.

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
Jel Editor Strategy loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 609 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.
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.

Editor & Referee Strategy for a Survey (jel-editor-strategy)
When to trigger
- The editor encouraged the proposal and you are negotiating the survey's scope
- You want to anticipate what JEL referees of a survey will push on (different from a paper)
- The editor has asked you to expand, cut, or rebalance coverage
- You are calibrating how many revision rounds and how long a JEL survey typically takes
How review differs for a survey
JEL referees do not check an identification strategy or replicate results — there are none of the author's own. They evaluate the survey as a survey:
| Referee question | What they are really checking |
|---|---|
| Is the coverage complete? | the saturation/comprehensiveness from jel-literature-synthesis — can they name an omitted literature? |
| Is it balanced? | even-handedness across schools; no self-promotion (jel-comprehensiveness-and-balance) |
| Is there a real framework? | the spine vs. an annotated bibliography (jel-organizing-framework) |
| Is it accessible? | can a non-specialist (the JEL reader) follow it (jel-writing-style) |
| Are the appraisals fair and correct? | does the author characterize each study's contribution and limits accurately |
| Is it the right scope? | not too narrow (field-journal review) nor unfinishably broad |
Referees of a survey are often the surveyed authors themselves — the people whose work is being weighed will read how you weighed it. This makes balance and accurate attribution not just ethical but strategic.
A useful frame: the editor recruits referees partly to test coverage and fairness, not to re-run statistics. A referee who can name an omitted literature, or who feels their school was caricatured, is the single most common cause of a major-revision verdict on a survey — both are preventable upstream by
jel-literature-synthesisandjel-comprehensiveness-and-balance.
Scope negotiation with the editor
The editor is your primary partner on a survey. Use the relationship deliberately:
- Lock scope early, in writing. The proposal stage (
jel-proposal-and-commissioning) is where scope is cheapest to change. Get the editor's agreement on the boundaries before months of reading. - Negotiate, don't capitulate, on coverage asks. If the editor wants an added literature, assess whether it fits the spine; propose where it goes or explain why it is out of scope — a survey cannot grow without bound.
- Surface conflicts of interest. If a likely referee is a central author you must critique, tell the editor; it protects both the process and you.
- Calibrate timeline. JEL surveys are large; revision can be substantial and multi-round. Confirm current timelines on the AEA JEL pages (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准) and plan for real revision effort, not cosmetic edits.
- Keep a coverage ledger for the editor. Maintain a short, sharable record of what is in scope and why (and what was deliberately excluded), so when the editor or a referee asks "why not X?", you can answer with a decision already made rather than scrambling.

Checklist
- Scope agreed with the editor in writing at the proposal stage
- Anticipated the six survey-referee questions (coverage, balance, framework, accessibility, appraisal, scope)
- Coverage-expansion asks evaluated against the spine before agreeing
- Conflicts of interest (referees who are surveyed authors) flagged to the editor
- Attribution and appraisals double-checked, knowing surveyed authors may referee
- Timeline and likely revision depth calibrated from the official pages (volatile)
- A plan for which asks you will accept vs. push back on, with reasons
Anti-patterns
- Treating the editor as a gatekeeper rather than a scope partner on a commissioned-style article
- Accepting every "please also cover…" until the survey loses its spine and finish-ability
- Mischaracterizing a surveyed author's work when that author may be your referee
- Hiding a conflict of interest instead of disclosing it to the editor
- Assuming a survey gets a light revise; budgeting for cosmetic edits when substantial rework is normal
- Asserting current timelines/process from memory rather than the live AEA pages
