What it does

Rje Workflow is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when routing a RAND Journal of Economics (RJE) manuscript to the right rje- skill across the industrial-organization lifecycle — from IO topic fit through structural or reduced-form identification, exhibit design, Wiley Research Exchange submission, the editor screen, and the two-referee response. Use this as the entry-point dispatcher when you are unsure which RJE specialist skill a task needs; it dispatches, it does not itself frame, estimate, or write.

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

  • Reduced-form identification
  • Wiley Research Exchange submission
  • The editor screen
  • The two-referee response

Example prompts

  • “/rje-workflow”

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

Rje Workflow loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 119 tokens; SKILL.md has 549 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~119
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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.

RJE Workflow Router (rje-workflow)

When to trigger

  • You are starting or mid-way through an RJE manuscript and want to know the next step
  • You are unsure whether your applied-micro / IO project is an RJE fit at all
  • You need to map a reviewer request back to the right specialist skill

What RJE is (so the route is correct)

The RAND Journal of Economics (RJE), formerly the Bell Journal of Economics, is owned and sponsored by the RAND Corporation (Santa Monica) and published in partnership with Wiley. Its scope is deliberately narrow: applied microeconomics centered on industrial organization — regulated industries, antitrust/competition, regulation, market structure, firm strategy, and the economic analysis of organizations. It is widely regarded as the field's flagship IO journal. Both theoretical and empirical work is welcomed. This is not a general-interest or macro outlet, so route accordingly.

The route

text
rje-topic-selection          (Is this an IO question RJE wants?)
        ▼
rje-contribution-framing     (What is the one-sentence contribution?)
        ▼
rje-literature-positioning   (Stake it against the IO frontier)
        ▼
rje-identification-strategy  (Structural or reduced-form design)
        ▼
rje-data-analysis            (Estimate, diagnose, robustness)
        ▼
rje-tables-figures           (Exhibits under the RJE Style Guide)
        ▼
rje-writing-style            (House usage + author-date polish)
        ▼
rje-replication-and-data-policy (Package + supporting-info handling)
        ▼
rje-review-process           (Understand the editor screen + referees)
        ▼
rje-submission               (Page caps, abstract, fee, portal preflight)
        ▼
rje-rebuttal                 (Respond to the two referees + Editor)

How to pick

  • No clear IO angle yet → rje-topic-selection
  • Have results, fuzzy on the "so what" → rje-contribution-framing
  • Design is the bottleneck → rje-identification-strategy
  • About to press submit → rje-submission (page caps are hard)
  • Got an R&R from the handling Editor → rje-rebuttal

Symptom-to-skill dispatch table

When a task or reviewer remark arrives mid-project, match the symptom to the specialist skill rather than guessing the stage.

Worked routing vignette

Suppose a collaborator says: "Our hospital-merger article got an R&R; one referee disputes the bargaining model's identification and the Editor wants the welfare number bounded — and we are over the page cap." Route in order:

  • Editor's binding ask (bound the welfare number) and identification dispute → rje-rebuttal to plan the response, drawing on rje-identification-strategy for the bargaining-identification defense and rje-data-analysis for the bounded counterfactual.
  • Over the page cap → rje-tables-figures and rje-submission to triage exhibits into the appendix before resubmission.
  • House-style drift in the revision → rje-writing-style for a final pass.

The router's job is to sequence these, not to perform any one of them.

Lifecycle calibration anchors

  • The lifecycle is roughly linear early (topic → framing → positioning → design → analysis → exhibits → style) but loops once an R&R arrives: rebuttal pulls back into identification, analysis, and exhibits before resubmission.
  • The two hard external gates are the editor screen (clear it with a legible IO hook and page-cap discipline) and the two-referee read (clear it with credible identification and bounded counterfactuals).
  • Treat these stages as a default ordering, not a rigid pipeline; an applied-theory IO article may compress the empirical skills and lean on framing, positioning, and writing-style. Confirm any process specifics against the journal's current author guidelines.

Output format

【Stage】topic / framing / design / analysis / exhibits / style / package / submission / rebuttal
【RJE fit risk】on-scope IO? [Y/N/uncertain]
