What it does

Red Workflow is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when mapping the end-to-end lifecycle of a Review of Economic Dynamics (RED) manuscript — from confirming dynamic/quantitative scope, through the current Elsevier Guide's USD 195 fee and ScienceDirect/Editorial Manager submission, the single-anonymized two-reviewer process, the code-first data/code archive plus Option C data statement, to the revise-and-resubmit. Orchestration; it routes to the other red- skills rather than drafting content.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k 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

  • Mapping the end-to-end lifecycle of a Review of Economic Dynamics (RED) manuscript — from confirming dynamic/quantitative scope
  • Through the current Elsevier Guides USD 195 fee and ScienceDirect/Editorial Manager submission
  • The single-anonymized two-reviewer process

Workflow steps

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

  1. Scope check — Is the question dynamic and quantitative, studied through a dynamic model
  2. Position — Place the paper in the dynamic-economics / SED literature. → red-literature-positioning
  3. Frame the contribution — What is the marginal quantitative/dynamic advance? → red-contribution-framing
  4. Identification / model logic — Assumptions and regularity conditions (theory), or causal
  5. Analysis — Calibration, moment-matching, estimation, numerical solution discipline. → red-data-analysis
  6. Exhibits — IRFs, moment tables, model-vs-data figures. → red-tables-figures
  7. Write — RED house style, author-year references, ≤250-word stand-alone abstract, 1–6 keywords. → red-writing-style
  8. Stage replication — Build the data/code archive early; RED's policy is code-first. → red-replication-and-data-policy
  9. Understand review — Desk screen, single-anonymized, ≥2 reviewers when sent out; plan around fast-review norms without assuming a…
  10. Submit — Pay the USD 195 fee (USD 100 all-student), submit via ScienceDirect / Editorial Manager. → red-submission
  11. Revise — Response-to-referees after an R&R; resubmissions are fee-exempt. → red-rebuttal

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

Red Workflow loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 116 tokens; SKILL.md has 514 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~116
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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.

RED Manuscript Workflow (red-workflow)

When to trigger

  • Starting a paper aimed at the Review of Economic Dynamics and wanting the full path
  • Unsure which RED-specific step comes next or which sibling skill to open
  • Sanity-checking that nothing RED-specific (fee, code archive, single-anonymized norms) is missed

The lifecycle (RED-specific)

  1. Scope check — Is the question dynamic and quantitative, studied through a dynamic model (theoretical, computational, or empirical)? RED's scope is defined by method/lens, not subfield. → red-topic-selection
  2. Position — Place the paper in the dynamic-economics / SED literature. → red-literature-positioning
  3. Frame the contribution — What is the marginal quantitative/dynamic advance? → red-contribution-framing
  4. Identification / model logic — Assumptions and regularity conditions (theory), or causal design (empirical). → red-identification-strategy
  5. Analysis — Calibration, moment-matching, estimation, numerical solution discipline. → red-data-analysis
  6. Exhibits — IRFs, moment tables, model-vs-data figures. → red-tables-figures
  7. Write — RED house style, author-year references, ≤250-word stand-alone abstract, 1–6 keywords. → red-writing-style
  8. Stage replication — Build the data/code archive early; RED's policy is code-first. → red-replication-and-data-policy
  9. Understand review — Desk screen, single-anonymized, ≥2 reviewers when sent out; plan around fast-review norms without assuming a guaranteed decision date. → red-review-process
  10. Submit — Pay the USD 195 fee (USD 100 all-student), submit via ScienceDirect / Editorial Manager. → red-submission
  11. Revise — Response-to-referees after an R&R; resubmissions are fee-exempt. → red-rebuttal

Anti-patterns

  • Treating RED like a generalist top-5 venue and ignoring its method-defined scope
  • Forgetting the per-submission fee gates the review (no fee paid → no review)
  • Leaving the replication archive or Option C data statement to the accepted stage when the policy expects code-first discipline

Router diagnostics

Ask these questions before choosing the next skill:

  • Is the dynamic mechanism unclear? Use red-topic-selection or red-contribution-framing.
  • Is the model disciplined by too few moments or free parameters? Use red-data-analysis.
  • Are assumptions, existence, uniqueness, or accuracy weak? Use red-identification-strategy.
  • Are exhibits static or uninformative about dynamics? Use red-tables-figures.
  • Is the archive missing a run-all path, seeds, or runtime? Use red-replication-and-data-policy.

The right RED route is usually the step that makes the dynamic model more auditable.

Stage-gate tracker

Keep one block per project and tick gates as they clear:

text
RED PIPELINE — [paper short title]
  G1 scope:        dynamic mechanism named; model class chosen          [date/✓]
  G2 positioning:  lineage map written; closest model identified        [ ]
  G3 discipline:   calibration table complete; every target sourced     [ ]
  G4 computation:  solver chosen; accuracy check passing                [ ]
  G5 exhibits:     mechanism figure + fit table drafted                 [ ]
  G6 archive:      run-all reproduces exhibits; readme.txt drafted      [ ]
  G7 manuscript:   abstract ≤250w; author-year refs; 1–6 keywords       [ ]
  G8 submission:   fee path decided; ScienceDirect upload checked       [ ]
  G9 review:       desk cleared; reviewer-clock expectations logged     [ ]
  G10 revision:    point-by-point reply; archive re-run and re-sent     [ ]

Gates G3–G6 are where RED differs most from a generalist target: they exist because SED-community referees re-derive calibrations and sometimes re-execute code.

Sequencing rules specific to RED

  • Build the archive (G6) in parallel with the analysis, not after acceptance — the data/code policy bites before final acceptance, and retrofitting seeds and execution order into months-old solver code is the classic schedule killer for simulation-heavy papers.
  • Do not draft the introduction before G2 and G3 exist; an intro written without a lineage map and a calibration table tends to over-claim and gets rewritten after the moments come in.
  • Budget compute as a project resource: a global-solution model whose counterfactual takes days to run limits how many referee experiments a two-round revision can absorb.
