Awesome Journal Skills is a collection of agent skill packs tailored to hundreds of academic journals across fields including economics, social science, medicine, science, and engineering. Researchers use the packs for tasks such as choosing topics, designing empirical strategies, preparing tables and figures, submitting papers, and responding to reviewers. The catalogue entries are the project's journal-specific skills and related plugins.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00072 | $0.00847 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00036 | $0.00424 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00169 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00085 |
Grade A, and why
aamas-workflow scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 74 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AAMAS Workflow
Use this as the project-management skill for an AAMAS submission. Replace every date with the current official timetable and work backward from the OpenReview cutoffs.
AAMAS is a conference owned by IFAAMAS, not a journal: it has no editor-in-chief and no article-processing charge. Each edition is run by rotating General and Program Chairs, the cost model is registration, and accepted papers are published open-access by IFAAMAS. Re-check the current CFP and organization page rather than carrying names or dates forward - as of 2026-07-09 the live target is AAMAS 2027, whose full timetable was not yet confirmable.
Milestones
- Venue fit: confirm the contribution is genuinely about interacting agents and choose the track (main full paper, extended abstract, AAAI, JAAMAS, Blue Sky, Demo, Competitions).
- Evidence lock: freeze the game, agent objectives, theorems, opponent sets, experiments, and supplement contents.
- Abstract deadline: submit the short plain-text abstract, authors, and keywords (main track's abstract is due before the paper).
- Paper deadline: upload the double-blind PDF and OpenReview fields.
- Supplement deadline: upload the anonymized zip within the size cap.
- Rebuttal window: respond to preliminary reviews with anonymous, evidence-anchored text; no new results.
- Decision: archive reviews, rebuttal, and the submitted version (all become public).
- Acceptance: prepare the IFAAMAS camera-ready, register, plan the in-person presentation, and release the public artifact.
Backward plan from the paper deadline
| Weeks out (heuristic) | Game-theory-plus-experiments milestone |
|---|---|
| 8+ | Game defined, solution concept fixed, theorems proved |
| 6 | Self-play and opponent sets designed against each claim |
| 4 | Population runs complete, seeds logged |
| 3 | Full draft in AAMAS two-column format |
| 2 | Internal mock review by a game-theory-minded reader |
| 1 | Anonymity sweep, supplement assembly, deviation-test check |
| 0 | Abstract then paper on OpenReview; supplement by its own cutoff |
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

aamas-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills (1,097 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 72 tokens to every session and 847 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
