What it does

Jae Methods is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when designing the empirical (or analytical) approach for a Journal of Accounting and Economics (JAE) manuscript — choosing an identification strategy (natural experiments, DiD, IV, RD) for large-sample archival capital-markets/contracting/disclosure data, or structuring an economic model, so the design can credibly support the economic prediction.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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. The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.

When your agent uses it

  • RD) for large-sample archival capital-markets/contracting/disclosure data
  • Structuring an economic model
  • So the design can credibly support the economic prediction

Example prompts

  • “/jae-methods”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. 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

Jae Methods loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 92 tokens; SKILL.md has 425 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~92
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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 425 words (~1,164 tokens).

“JAE's workhorse is large-sample empirical archival research grounded in economics — observational capital-markets and contracting data analyzed with econometric, identification-focused designs — alongside analytical economic modeling. The journal favors economic analyses of accounting problems (capital-markets information content, contracting, disclosure, agency/monitoring)…”
