rfs-empirical-designA skill your agent uses when sample construction, estimator choice, factor/portfolio design, or measurement is the bottleneck for a The Review of Financial Studies (RFS) manuscript.
Rfs Empirical Design is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when sample construction, estimator choice, factor/portfolio design, or measurement is the bottleneck for a The Review of Financial Studies (RFS) manuscript. Settles design choices that make the identification credible; does NOT pick the identification strategy or run robustness.
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.
The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. 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.
Rfs Empirical Design loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 490 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.
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 490 words (~1,157 tokens).
“RFS publishes design-defining empirical templates referees will hold you to — e.g., the q-factor construction in Hou, Xue, and Zhang (2015) "Digesting Anomalies" (RFS 28(3)) and the variance-risk-premium measure in Bollerslev, Tauchen, and Zhou (2009) (RFS 22(11)). Two RFS-specific pressures…”

Run `npx skills add franklee16/academic-research-skills --skill rfs-empirical-design -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (Awesome-Journal-Skills-main/Review-of-Financial-Studies-Skills/skills/rfs-empirical-design in franklee16/academic-research-skills) into .claude/skills/rfs-empirical-design in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

Or copy the skill folder (Awesome-Journal-Skills-main/Review-of-Financial-Studies-Skills/skills/rfs-empirical-design in franklee16/academic-research-skills) into .agents/skills/rfs-empirical-design 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 franklee16/academic-research-skills --skill rfs-empirical-design -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/rfs-empirical-design, .gemini/skills/rfs-empirical-design, .github/skills/rfs-empirical-design and .opencode/skills/rfs-empirical-design in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Rfs Empirical Design 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.
No licence was found for Rfs Empirical Design or its repository. Without one, default copyright applies: ask the author before reusing or redistributing it.
About 1.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
