  • Citing in the RJE author-date style (no page numbers
  • SKILL.md covers When to trigger, Positioning at the IO flagship, Citation form (RJE Style Guide) and Anti-patterns, plus 1 more section

What it does

Rje Literature Positioning is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use to position a manuscript against the industrial-organization frontier for The RAND Journal of Economics (RJE) — staking the contribution against prior IO work without a standalone survey, and citing in the RJE author-date style (no page numbers, no issue numbers). Positioning, not a literature review.

Its SKILL.md is about 720 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 Positioning and messaging and 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

  • Citing in the RJE author-date style (no page numbers
  • No issue numbers)

Example prompts

  • “/rje-literature-positioning”

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

Rje Literature Positioning loads about 720 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 83 tokens; SKILL.md has 282 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~83
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~720

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 282 words (~720 tokens).

“RJE is the flagship industrial-organization journal (formerly the Bell Journal of Economics), so referees are IO insiders who know the canon and the current frontier. Positioning must show exactly what your article adds to the IO conversation — a new…”
