What it does

Jf Workflow is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when deciding which jf- sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic selection through rebuttal for The Journal of Finance (JF). Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.

Its SKILL.md is about 840 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: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.

When your agent uses it

  • Deciding which jf- sub-skill to invoke next
  • Sequencing manuscript work from topic selection through rebuttal for The Journal of Finance (JF)

Example prompts

  • “/jf-workflow”

Workflow steps

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

  1. jf-topic-selection — is this general-interest and flagship-level?
  2. jf-literature-positioning — state the marginal contribution; attribute canon to the right top-3 journal.
  3. Design: jf-empirical-design (asset pricing) or jf-identification (corporate/causal).
  4. jf-robustness — decisive checks in body, exhaustive battery + multiple-testing discipline in the Internet Appendix.
  5. jf-tables-figures — self-contained exhibits, JF numbering, economic units.
  6. jf-internet-appendix — allocate body vs. IA; keep body ≤60 pages.
  7. jf-writing-style — general-interest intro; magnitude up front.
  8. jf-referee-strategy — pre-empt objections; cover letter only for COI/code-exemption.
  9. jf-submission — preflight: fee tier, 60-page check, bundled IA, code, disclosure.
  10. jf-rebuttal — after an R&R, answer the editor first.

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

Jf Workflow loads about 840 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 317 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~840

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 317 words (~840 tokens).

“The Journal of Finance: AFA flagship, founded 1946, bimonthly, Wiley-Blackwell, finance top-3 with JFE and RFS, ~5% acceptance / ~33–45% desk reject (afajof.org editor reports, accessed 2026-05-30). Distinctive JF mechanics this pack encodes: the AFA online portal with a tiered…”
