Jel Workflow is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when deciding which jel- sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing a survey/review article from topic selection through revision for a Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) submission. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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 Research & Science. 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.
11 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.
Jel Workflow loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 668 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/jel-workflow/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).This is the router. It tells you which jel- skill to use at the current stage* of a survey or review article aimed at the Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) — the American Economic Association's survey-of-record journal (founded 1969). JEL does not publish original empirical research. It publishes commissioned and peer-reviewed syntheses of bodies of economic research, book reviews, and maintains the JEL classification system. So the lifecycle is not "design → identify → estimate → defend"; it is scope a synthesis-worthy field → propose it → read the whole literature → impose an organizing framework → synthesize comprehensively and even-handedly → land the JEL voice → submit and revise.
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as JEL and the artefact as a survey, not a primary-research paper. Operational tells that you are at JEL and not a sibling: the work reviews other people's results rather than reporting your own; the natural first step is a ~10-page proposal emailed to the editor before a full draft (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准); there is no identification strategy and no replication package of your own data (you instead appraise the studies you cover); the contribution is an analytical map of a field, not a new estimate. If the user actually has original results, they want a primary-research journal (e.g. AER, QE), not JEL — say so.
| Current symptom | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Unsure the field is mature/important enough to survey for JEL | jel-topic-selection |
| Need to pitch the survey to the editor before writing it | jel-proposal-and-commissioning |
| Reading is unsystematic; citation gaps likely | jel-literature-synthesis |
| Draft is a list of papers, not an argument about the field | jel-organizing-framework |
| Coverage vs. selectivity, or fairness across schools, feels off | jel-comprehensiveness-and-balance |
| Need who-found-what tables or a conceptual figure | jel-tables-figures |
| Prose is dense/jargon-laden; non-specialist can't follow | jel-writing-style |
| Assigning JEL codes, or relating the survey to the JEL taxonomy | jel-classification-system |
| Negotiating scope or handling referees of a survey | jel-editor-strategy |
| Ready to submit/propose via the AEA portal; need a preflight | jel-submission |
| Received editor/referee feedback on the survey | jel-revision |
jel-topic-selection — confirm the field is JEL-scale (mature, important, needs synthesis)jel-proposal-and-commissioning — pitch a ~10-page proposal before draftingjel-literature-synthesis — gather and read the literature systematicallyjel-organizing-framework — impose the analytical spinejel-comprehensiveness-and-balance — completeness, fairness, even-handed controversiesjel-tables-figures — summary tables and conceptual figuresjel-writing-style — the authoritative-yet-accessible JEL voice (abstract + intro last)jel-classification-system — assign JEL codes; situate the survey in the taxonomyjel-editor-strategy — scope negotiation and referee expectationsjel-submission — AEA portal preflight (proposal or full paper)jel-revision — after the editor/referee letter
jel-writing-styleis a late-stage polish; do not rewrite the intro before the organizing framework and coverage settle. The proposal comes early — much of JEL is invited or proposal-first, sojel-proposal-and-commissioningprecedes the heavy reading.
A "survey" is not one thing; the bottleneck differs by type. Read the archetype, then enter the chain at the right link.
| Archetype | Likely first bottleneck | Enter at |
|---|---|---|
| field-defining synthesis (broad subfield) | scope is enormous; needs a taxonomy | jel-organizing-framework |
| methods/tool survey (e.g. an estimator family) | accessibility to non-specialists; worked intuition | jel-writing-style |
| empirical-evidence stock-take (what is the consensus?) | comprehensiveness + even-handed weighing of conflicting results | jel-comprehensiveness-and-balance |
| emerging-area review (young, fast-moving) | is it mature enough for JEL yet? | jel-topic-selection |
