What it does

Worlddev Replication Package is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when preparing the data/code or qualitative-transparency materials for a World Development (WD) manuscript under Elsevier's research-data policy and double-anonymized review. Assembles the package; it does not invent evidence or citations.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 Research & Science, covering Econometrics and empirical research and Citation management. 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

  • Preparing the data/code
  • Qualitative-transparency materials for a World Development (WD) manuscript under Elseviers research-data policy and double-anonymized review

Example prompts

  • “/worlddev-replication-package”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Double-anonymized review creates a real tension: a data-availability statement, a repository link, or an acknowledgments line can reveal…
  2. Ethical and access constraints are the norm, not the exception in development research. Restricted survey data, geocoded conflict data…

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

Worlddev Replication Package loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 571 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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.

Replication & Transparency Package (worlddev-replication-package)

When to trigger

  • The paper is empirical and there is no data-availability statement or no organized code
  • Sensitive development data (household surveys, conflict locations, vulnerable informants) cannot be posted as-is
  • A qualitative paper has no plan for transparency — readers cannot see how evidence became claims
  • The data-availability statement risks de-anonymizing the authors during double-anonymized review
  • Reviewers or the editor request materials and the project is not reproducible end to end

WD's transparency posture

WD follows Elsevier's research-data policy: authors are asked to state data availability and are encouraged to share data and code, with deposit in a recognized repository as best practice (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准). WD is not a journal with a mandatory pre-acceptance reproducibility audit on the model of the AEA or the Econometric Society — but the expectation of transparency is real and rising, and referees increasingly ask for it. Two features make WD distinctive:

  1. Double-anonymized review creates a real tension: a data-availability statement, a repository link, or an acknowledgments line can reveal author identity. Prepare a review-safe version (anonymized statement: "data and code will be deposited in a public repository upon acceptance"; no identifying URLs, no self-citation that unmasks) and a camera-ready version with the live deposit. Keep these separate so the wrong one is never uploaded.
  2. Ethical and access constraints are the norm, not the exception in development research. Restricted survey data, geocoded conflict data, and human-subjects protections often bar open posting. WD accepts this — what it does not accept is silence. State why data cannot be shared and how a reader could obtain or reconstruct access.

Quantitative package

  • Data-availability statement matched to reality: open / restricted-with-access-route / proprietary-with-justification.
  • Code that runs top to bottom from raw (or de-identified) inputs to every number, table, and figure, with a master script and a README listing software, packages/versions, and runtime.
  • De-identification of human-subjects data; document the procedure; never post direct identifiers or precise locations of vulnerable populations.
  • Provenance: cite the original data source and any survey instrument; for secondary data (DHS, LSMS, Afrobarometer), give the version/round.

Qualitative transparency package

Transparency for qualitative WD work is not raw-transcript dumping — that can violate informant confidentiality. It means making the inference auditable:

  • Methods appendix: sampling/case-selection logic, data-generation process, coding scheme, and analysis approach.
  • Evidence-to-claim trail: how themes were built; how rival explanations were tested.
  • Anonymized, ethically cleared excerpts sufficient to let a reader judge the interpretation, with confidentiality protected.
  • Reflexivity and ethics note: consent, IRB/ethics approval, and the researcher's positionality.

Mixed-methods

Document both strands and, critically, the integration procedure — how the qual and quant were brought together — so the joint inference is reproducible in logic even where raw data are restricted.

Checklist

  • Data-availability statement is accurate (open / restricted / proprietary) with a route to access where closed
  • Quant code runs end-to-end from inputs to all exhibits; README lists software + versions
  • Human-subjects data de-identified; no precise locations of vulnerable groups
  • Secondary data cited with version/round; instruments provided where relevant
  • Qual: methods appendix + evidence trail + ethics/consent documented
  • Review-safe (anonymized) version prepared separately from the camera-ready deposit
  • Mixed: integration procedure documented

Anti-patterns

  • A repository link or identifying acknowledgments in the review version — breaks double-anonymization
  • "Data available on request" with no real intention or route to honor it
  • Posting geocoded conflict data or identifiable informant material — an ethics failure WD takes seriously
  • Treating qualitative transparency as raw-transcript dumping rather than an auditable inference trail
  • Code that reproduces some but not all reported numbers
