What it does
Jbes Topic Selection is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when deciding whether a project fits the Journal of Business & Economic Statistics (JBES) — the methods-with-empirics fit test. Checks methodological novelty plus clear empirical relevance before time is sunk; it does not develop the method itself.
Its SKILL.md is about 960 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 Data & Analytics, covering Statistics. 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
- Deciding whether a project fits the Journal of Business & Economic Statistics (JBES) — the methods-with-empirics fit test
- Tasks that involve Statistics
Example prompts
- “/jbes-topic-selection”
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Methodological novelty — a new method, a genuine improvement to an existing one, a useful adaptation of a method from another field…
- Clear empirical relevance — even theoretical contributions are expected to matter for real applications, and a JBES paper usually features…
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
Jbes Topic Selection loads about 955 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 443 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.
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 443 words (~955 tokens).
“JBES publishes high-quality methodological contributions in statistics and econometrics oriented toward applications in microeconomics, macroeconomics, business, and finance. The defining filter is a conjunction, not a disjunction:”
