Revacc Topic Selection is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when scoping or pressure-testing the research question for a Review of Accounting Studies (RAST) manuscript — confirming it is a contribution-driven financial-accounting question that fits RAST's archival/analytical/experimental lanes. Locks the question; it does not build the model (revacc-theory-development) or design identification (revacc-methods).
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.
It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Accounting and bookkeeping and Hypothesis generation. 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.
4 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.
Revacc Topic Selection loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 95 tokens; SKILL.md has 624 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/revacc-topic-selection/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).RAST publishes work whose payoff is to financial accounting and reporting: disclosure (voluntary and mandatory), earnings quality and management, accruals, valuation and the value-relevance of accounting numbers, capital-market consequences, analysts and forecasting, audit, and taxation. The journal's distinguishing feature is that it takes analytical (modeling) accounting as seriously as empirical archival work, plus a thinner experimental stream. A topic earns its place when the accounting construct is the object of study, not a control variable.
Desk-reject risks at RAST:
| Signal in the draft | Inspect | Passes when |
|---|---|---|
| Disclosure / reporting choice is the focus | Is the disclosure the treatment or the object, with a friction it acts on? | The accounting choice, not a market outcome, is what we explain |
| Earnings quality / management / accruals | Is the construct measured with precedent and a clear incentive story? | A named incentive (contracting, capital-market, regulatory) drives it |
| Valuation / value-relevance / capital markets | Is there an accounting-information channel, not just a pricing pattern? | The accounting number changes beliefs or decisions, traceably |
| Analysts / forecasting | Is the information environment the mechanism, not just a proxy? | Forecast properties illuminate accounting information, not vice versa |
| Audit / tax / regulation | Is there a reporting consequence, not only an institutional description? | The institutional detail bites on a measurable reporting outcome |
| Analytical model | Is it the minimal structure yielding an accounting implication? | The equilibrium delivers a comparative static a reporting reader cares about |

A skill your agent uses when scoping or pressure-testing the research question for a Review of Accounting Studies (RAST) manuscript — confirming it is a contribution-driven financial-accounting…. Revacc Topic Selection is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when scoping or pressure-testing the research question for a Review of Accounting Studies (RAST) manuscript — confirming it is a contribution-driven financial-accounting question that fits RAST's archival/analytical/experimental lanes.
Revacc Topic Selection fits situations like: tasks that involve Accounting and bookkeeping; tasks that involve Hypothesis generation.
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill revacc-topic-selection -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (Review-of-Accounting-Studies-Skills/skills/revacc-topic-selection in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .claude/skills/revacc-topic-selection in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill revacc-topic-selection -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (Review-of-Accounting-Studies-Skills/skills/revacc-topic-selection in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .agents/skills/revacc-topic-selection in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill revacc-topic-selection -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/revacc-topic-selection, .gemini/skills/revacc-topic-selection, .github/skills/revacc-topic-selection and .opencode/skills/revacc-topic-selection in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Revacc Topic Selection is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Revacc Topic Selection is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.4k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 5.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
