What it does
Jfi Contribution Framing is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when framing the contribution of a Journal of Financial Intermediation (JFI) paper around what it teaches about intermediation — the institution, the friction, the mechanism, and the economic consequence — so it clears the desk screen and reads as banking, not generic finance. It frames; it does not write the paper.
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.
When your agent uses it
- Framing the contribution of a Journal of Financial Intermediation (JFI) paper around what it teaches about intermediation — the institution
- The economic consequence — so it clears the desk screen and reads as banking
- Not generic finance
Example prompts
- “/jfi-contribution-framing”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Institution / intermediary — banks, lenders, dealers, insurers, the specific actor.
- Friction — the economic problem the intermediary faces or resolves (information asymmetry,
- Mechanism — how that friction produces the result; the causal or theoretical channel.
- Consequence — why it matters for credit, stability, welfare, or policy.
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
Jfi Contribution Framing loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 617 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.

- description
- Use when framing the contribution of a Journal of Financial Intermediation (JFI) paper around what it teaches about intermediation — the institution, the friction, the mechanism, and the economic consequence — so it clears the desk screen and reads as banking, not generic finance. It frames; it does not write the paper.
Contribution Framing (jfi-contribution-framing)
When to trigger
- Drafting the abstract and the contribution paragraph of the introduction
- A reader cannot tell, in one sentence, why intermediaries are central to your result
The JFI framing bar
Because JFI runs an active desk-rejection screen, the contribution must be legible in the abstract and first pages. Frame it as a statement about intermediation, not finance in general. A strong frame names four things:
- Institution / intermediary — banks, lenders, dealers, insurers, the specific actor.
- Friction — the economic problem the intermediary faces or resolves (information asymmetry, monitoring, liquidity transformation, capital constraints, agency).
- Mechanism — how that friction produces the result; the causal or theoretical channel.
- Consequence — why it matters for credit, stability, welfare, or policy.
"Banks do X" is weak; "Because of friction F, intermediary type I responds via mechanism M, with consequence C for credit/stability" is a JFI contribution.
Empirical vs. theory framing
- Empirical: lead with the identified fact and the mechanism it reveals, then the broader lesson for intermediation — not a coefficient in search of a story.
- Theory: lead with the friction and the new prediction the model generates; state the testable implication so the contribution is not purely formal.
Worked vignette: framing a capital-shock transmission paper
A hypothetical submission (all numbers illustrative): using a supervisory credit register, the authors find that banks hit by a 1-percentage-point capital shortfall after a stress-test redesign cut credit to the same firm by 3.4% more than unaffected banks (firm×time fixed effects), with the cut twice as large for relationship borrowers lacking alternative lenders.
- Weak frame: "We study the effect of stress tests on bank lending." No friction named; could run in any banking outlet.
- Better, still short: "Capital regulation reduces credit supply." Mechanism missing — why capital, and why these borrowers?
- JFI-ready: "Because raising equity is costly (friction), constrained banks deleverage where their information monopoly is strongest (mechanism — relationship borrowers cannot switch), so capital regulation taxes precisely the borrowers intermediation theory says banks exist to serve (consequence)."
- The last frame clears the screen because it connects an identified estimate to a Bhattacharya–Thakor-style account of what intermediaries do — that dialogue with intermediation theory is the JFI bar.

Frame-strength ladder for the desk screen
| Rung | The abstract reads as | Likely JFI desk outcome |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A correlation about banks | High desk-reject risk |
| 2 | An identified effect, mechanism unnamed | Vulnerable: "fine design — what is the intermediation lesson?" |
| 3 | Effect + named friction + channel | Survives triage; referees then test the channel |
| 4 | Rung 3 plus theory dialogue (which intermediation model is disciplined or rejected) | Strongest JFI frame |
Aim for rung 3 at minimum; reach rung 4 whenever the literature offers competing intermediation models your estimate can separate.
Referee pushback on the frame, and the JFI fix
- "This could be a demand-side story" → re-anchor the claim to the supply channel your within-firm design isolates, and say so in the abstract, not only in Section 5.
- "Banks are incidental here" → make the intermediary's balance sheet or information role load-bearing, or concede the paper belongs at a general-finance outlet.
- "The welfare claim outruns the design" → downgrade the consequence from "welfare" to the credit, stability, or real-outcome margin the design actually measures.
As a calibration (reading-based, not a rule): accepted JFI introductions usually state the friction and mechanism within the first two paragraphs and the headline magnitude by paragraph three; the contribution paragraph names what the result teaches intermediation theory, not just what the regression found.
Anti-patterns
- A contribution that would fit any finance journal (no intermediary mechanism)
- Burying the mechanism past page 3, where the desk screen never reaches it
- Over-claiming policy or welfare beyond what the design or model supports
- Listing results without saying what they teach about intermediation
