What it does

Restat Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for The Review of Economics and Statistics (REStat) via Editorial Express — format rules, abstract limit, online-appendix cap, article categories, submission fee, the proprietary-data fee hold, and house style. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `templates/checklist.md` and `templates/manuscript_template.md`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Statistics. 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

  • Running the final pre-submission preflight for The Review of Economics and Statistics (REStat) via Editorial Express — format rules
  • Online-appendix cap
  • Article categories
  • The proprietary-data fee hold

Example prompts

  • “/restat-submission”

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

Restat Submission loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 440 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~80
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for The Review of Economics and Statistics (REStat) via Editorial Express — format rules, abstract limit, online-appendix cap, article categories, submission fee, the proprietary-data fee hold, and house style. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Submission Preflight (restat-submission)

When to trigger

  • "Submitting tomorrow" — last check before pressing submit on Editorial Express
  • Unsure which files, fees, and declarations the REStat submission expects
  • Confirming format (PDF, 12pt, double-spaced) and house style are REStat-compliant
  • Deciding Article vs Short Paper, and whether proprietary data affects the fee timing

Process facts (refreshed 2026-06-20; live-check volatile items on MIT Press)

  • REStat is published by MIT Press, edited at the Harvard Kennedy School; submission is via Editorial Express (editorialexpress.com/.../e-submit...?dbase=restat). Editors as of 2026: Will Dobbie (Harvard) and Raymond Fisman (Boston U), co-chairs.
  • Submission fee: nonrefundable US$125 per new submission, paid online by credit card at submission. Proprietary-data papers: do NOT pay the fee until the editorial office confirms the data comply with the Data and Code Availability Policy.
  • Article categories: full-length Articles, Notes, and (since Dec 2019) Short Papers — Short Papers strictly ≤6000 words and ≤5 exhibits; live-check category text before upload.
  • Format: one PDF; 12-point font; double-spaced throughout (including abstract, acknowledgments, footnotes, references); online appendix ≤20 pages, but the manuscript must be self-contained.
  • Abstract ≤100 words, in JEL-suitable form; JEL codes / keywords on the title page.
  • Data & code: empirical papers fall under the Data and Code Availability Policy (deposit to the REStat Harvard Dataverse before publication); indicate proprietary data at submission (restat-replication-package).

Preflight checklist

Format & style
  • One PDF; font 12-point; double-spaced throughout (abstract, acknowledgments, footnotes, references included)
  • Abstract ≤100 words, JEL-suitable; JEL codes + keywords on the title page
  • Online appendix ≤20 pages; main manuscript self-contained
  • Standard economics house style: SEs in parentheses; stars permitted but never instead of SEs; self-contained exhibit notes
  • Tables/figures legible; the headline result readable from one main exhibit
Show full SKILL.md (169 more words)Show less
Category & files
  • Article vs Note vs Short Paper chosen; if Short Paper, ≤6000 words and ≤5 exhibits
  • Cover letter prepared (state the contribution and venue fit)
  • Online appendix file ready (≤20 pp)
Fees & data policy
  • Submission fee (US$125, nonrefundable) ready by credit card
  • Proprietary data: fee held until the editorial office confirms policy compliance; access instructions documented
  • Replication plan in place for the REStat Harvard Dataverse (restat-replication-package)
Declarations
  • Original, unpublished work, not under review elsewhere; no duplicate submission
  • Funding / conflict-of-interest disclosures prepared; AI not listed as an author

Anti-patterns

  • Paying the US$125 fee on a proprietary-data paper before compliance is confirmed
  • Abstract over 100 words, or single-spaced manuscript (REStat wants double-spacing throughout)
  • Online appendix doing work the self-contained main paper must do, or exceeding 20 pages
  • Submitting a Short Paper over 6000 words / 5 exhibits
  • Stars with no standard errors; exhibits with non-self-contained notes
  • Planning the Harvard Dataverse deposit only after acceptance
