What it does
Jfi Workflow is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when routing a Journal of Financial Intermediation (JFI) manuscript through its lifecycle — given where you are in the banking/intermediation paper pipeline, it names the next jfi- skill to invoke and separates the theory-led path from the empirics-led path. It coordinates; it does not draft content.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k 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
- It names the next jfi- skill to invoke and separates the theory-led path from the empirics-led path
Example prompts
- “/jfi-workflow”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Gate A (after literature-positioning): the delta is a mechanism, not merely a new dataset.
- Gate B (after identification/data-analysis): a within-firm or equivalent demand control exists, or
- Gate C (before submission): the desk-screen self-audit passes — mechanism in the abstract, design
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 Workflow loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 584 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.

- jfi-workflow
- description
- Use when routing a Journal of Financial Intermediation (JFI) manuscript through its lifecycle — given where you are in the banking/intermediation paper pipeline, it names the next jfi-* skill to invoke and separates the theory-led path from the empirics-led path. It coordinates; it does not draft content.
JFI Workflow Router (jfi-workflow)
When to trigger
- "I'm writing a JFI paper — where do I start?"
- You finished one stage and want the next jfi-* skill
- You are unsure whether your project is theory-led or empirics-led at JFI
What JFI is (orient first)
Journal of Financial Intermediation (JFI) is an Elsevier journal (ISSN 1042-9573) on banking,
financial intermediation, and the economics of financial institutions and markets. It publishes both
theory and empirics: bank behavior, intermediary frictions, corporate finance, regulation, and related
financial-economics topics. So the router first asks whether the paper's core contribution is a model
(theory) or an empirical design — this changes how jfi-identification-strategy,
jfi-data-analysis, and jfi-replication-and-data-policy are applied.
Routing map
| Where you are | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Choosing / sharpening the question | jfi-topic-selection |
| Placing it against the intermediation frontier | jfi-literature-positioning |
| Empirical causal design OR theory assumptions/proofs | jfi-identification-strategy |
| Running bank/loan-panel analysis OR numerical examples | jfi-data-analysis |
| Articulating the mechanism / "why intermediaries matter" | jfi-contribution-framing |
| Building exhibits | jfi-tables-figures |
| Polishing prose, author–date style, numbered sections | jfi-writing-style |
| Preparing Option C data sharing + Data Statement | jfi-replication-and-data-policy |
| Understanding single-blind / desk-reject / final decision | jfi-review-process |
| Final preflight + fee + abstract/keywords + AI disclosure | jfi-submission |
| Responding to referees on an R&R | jfi-rebuttal |
Default sequence
topic-selection → literature-positioning → identification-strategy → data-analysis → contribution-framing → tables-figures → writing-style → replication-and-data-policy → review-process → submission → rebuttal.
Two lifecycle profiles through this router
- Empirics-led (e.g., a register-based lending-channel paper): topic-selection settles the mechanism;
jfi-identification-strategyis the heaviest stop (demand confounds, within-firm design);jfi-data-analysisbuilds the battery;jfi-review-processmatters early, because the desk screen is the binding constraint, not the referee round. - Theory-led (e.g., a model of run-prone shadow funding):
jfi-identification-strategybecomes assumptions-and-propositions discipline;jfi-data-analysisshrinks to a numerical illustration;jfi-writing-stylecarries more weight, since proof exposition is the surface the referee actually reads.
Symptom → skill routing
| Symptom | Route to |
|---|---|
| "A referee could say it's all borrower demand" | jfi-identification-strategy |
| Abstract reads like generic banking | jfi-contribution-framing |
| Closest citations are all JF/JFE general finance | jfi-literature-positioning, then re-test fit |
| Exhibits do not show the mechanism | jfi-tables-figures |
| Worried about paying the non-refundable fee | jfi-review-process + the gates in jfi-submission |
| Restricted register data, sharing plan unclear | jfi-replication-and-data-policy |

Stage gates before money and goodwill are spent
- Gate A (after literature-positioning): the delta is a mechanism, not merely a new dataset.
- Gate B (after identification/data-analysis): a within-firm or equivalent demand control exists, or the theory's propositions are fully proved with stated boundaries.
- Gate C (before submission): the desk-screen self-audit passes — mechanism in the abstract, design defended in the introduction, the <=250-word abstract and 1-7 English keywords are ready, and the US$500 new-submission fee is justified. Re-confirm fees against the journal's current author guidelines before filing.
A routing pass, worked (illustrative)
An author arrives with loan-level evidence that small banks cut credit after a deposit outflow.
jfi-topic-selection: strong fit once anchored to liquidity transformation. jfi-literature-positioning:
closest papers are the deposits-channel line; the delta is the relationship-borrower margin.
jfi-identification-strategy: outflow exposure may proxy local demand — gate B forces a within-firm
design before any drafting continues. jfi-data-analysis: battery planned around that threat. Only then
do framing, exhibits, and style run, and jfi-submission clears the fee gates. The router's value is
refusing to let writing start before gate B — at JFI the design objection, not the prose, kills papers.
On an R&R, re-enter the map at the skill matching the referee's heaviest comment, then exit via
jfi-rebuttal.
Anti-patterns
- Treating JFI as purely empirical when your contribution is a model (or vice versa)
- Skipping
jfi-review-processand being surprised by desk-rejection or a narrow appeal path - Forgetting the US$500 fee until
jfi-submission— see the source map and re-confirm before filing
