What it does
Jfe Topic Selection is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when scoping or framing a topic for a Journal of Financial Economics (JFE) manuscript and you need to test fit and contribution before investing in data work. Pressure-tests the question and contribution; it does not write the literature review or design the empirics.
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 Literature review. 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
- Tasks that involve Literature review
Example prompts
- “/jfe-topic-selection”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Economic question. Is there a real financial-economics question, not just a correlation you can run? "Does X cause Y, and through what…
- Contribution. Can you name the specific result that is new — a new fact, a new mechanism, a new identification, or overturning a believed…
- Credible answer. Is there a plausible path to identification or to disciplined inference (see jfe-identification, jfe-empirical-design)?…
- Depth. Can the result survive the robustness and referee culture JFE is known for? If one alternative explanation sinks it, reconsider.
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
Jfe Topic Selection loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 668 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 668 words (~1,333 tokens).
“JFE (Elsevier; North-Holland; ISSN 0304-405X; founded 1974 by Michael C. Jensen) is one of the top-3 finance journals and publishes rigorous, methodologically demanding empirical corporate finance and asset pricing, plus the financial-economics theory that supports them. Its stated scope centers…”
