worlddev-workflowA skill your agent uses when deciding which worlddev- sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic through rebuttal for a World Development (WD) submission.
Worlddev Workflow is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when deciding which worlddev- sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic through rebuttal for a World Development (WD) submission. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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. 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.
11 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.
Worlddev Workflow loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 645 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/worlddev-workflow/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).This is the router. It tells you which worlddev- skill to use at the current stage* of a manuscript aimed at World Development (WD) — the multidisciplinary development-studies journal published by Elsevier (founded 1973, monthly, ISSN 0305-750X / online 1873-5991). WD's defining feature, and the thing every routing decision must respect, is that it is methodologically pluralist: it publishes econometric and experimental work, but equally qualitative case studies, process tracing, ethnography, participatory methods, political-economy analysis, and policy/practice papers. The shared bar is real-world development relevance in low- and middle-income contexts — poverty, inequality, livelihoods, institutions, governance, aid and NGOs, agriculture and food security, health and education, conflict, gender, and environment-development.
The single biggest router mistake is treating WD as if it were an econometrics journal. It is not. Route a regression-discontinuity paper and a multi-site qualitative study through the same chain, but enter the chain at different links and apply a different bar for "credible evidence." Editors as of 2026: Jampel Dell'Angelo and Angelika Rettberg (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准). Review is double-anonymized; submission is via Elsevier Editorial Manager; abstract ≤250 words, 3–6 keywords.
| Current symptom | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Scope/audience/outlet fit uncertain; is this WD or a sibling? | worlddev-topic-selection |
| Contribution vs. the development literature is fuzzy or undersold | worlddev-literature-positioning |
| Causal claim rests on OLS+controls; or a qual/mixed claim lacks an inference logic | worlddev-identification |
| The conceptual/analytical framework (development theory) is loose or decorative | worlddev-theory-model |
| Results may be specification-, sample-, measurement-, or interpretation-sensitive | worlddev-robustness |
| Exhibits dense; significance asterisks present; maps/qual evidence underused | worlddev-tables-figures |
| Prose is jargon-heavy and does not reach a multidisciplinary, policy audience | worlddev-writing-style |
| Data/code deposit, qualitative-transparency, or anonymization for review | worlddev-replication-package |
| Likely double-anonymized referee objections should be pre-empted | worlddev-referee-strategy |
| Close to submission; need the Editorial Manager preflight | worlddev-submission |
| An R&R or reject-and-resubmit arrived; need a response-letter plan | worlddev-rebuttal |
worlddev-topic-selection — lock the development question and WD-vs-sibling fitworlddev-literature-positioning — stake the contribution across disciplinesworlddev-identification — causal design OR the inference logic of a qual/mixed paperworlddev-theory-model — the conceptual/analytical framework that organizes the evidenceworlddev-robustness — sensitivity (quant) or trustworthiness/triangulation (qual)worlddev-tables-figures — exhibits, maps, and qualitative displays without asterisksworlddev-writing-style — reach the multidisciplinary reader (abstract + intro last)worlddev-replication-package — Elsevier data policy + qualitative transparencyworlddev-referee-strategy — anticipate double-anonymized objectionsworlddev-submission — Editorial Manager preflightworlddev-rebuttal — after the decision letterWriting-style is late-stage polish; do not rewrite the intro before the framework and evidence settle.
The binding constraint differs by what kind of paper this is. Read the archetype, then enter at the right link.
| Archetype | Likely first bottleneck | Enter at |
|---|---|---|
| Quantitative causal (DID, IV, RDD, RCT) | credible design + clustering at the right level | worlddev-identification |
| Qualitative (cases, process tracing, ethnography) | inference logic + transparency, not "more N" | worlddev-identification → worlddev-theory-model |
| Mixed-methods | integration — how strands actually combine, not run in parallel | worlddev-theory-model → worlddev-identification |
| Political-economy / institutional analysis | conceptual framework doing real analytical work | worlddev-theory-model |
| Policy / practice / aid-effectiveness | "so what for whom" + external validity | worlddev-topic-selection → worlddev-writing-style |

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill worlddev-workflow -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (World-Development-Skills/skills/worlddev-workflow in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .claude/skills/worlddev-workflow in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill worlddev-workflow -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (World-Development-Skills/skills/worlddev-workflow in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .agents/skills/worlddev-workflow 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 worlddev-workflow -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/worlddev-workflow, .gemini/skills/worlddev-workflow, .github/skills/worlddev-workflow and .opencode/skills/worlddev-workflow in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Worlddev Workflow 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.
Worlddev Workflow is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.6k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
