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.

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 | $0.00000 | $0.01692 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00677 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00338 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00169 |
Grade A, and why
aejmic-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 1mo 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 — 90 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AEJ: Micro Workflow Router (aejmic-workflow)
Overview
This is the router. It tells you which aejmic- skill to use at the current stage* of a manuscript aimed at the American Economic Journal: Microeconomics (AEJ: Micro) — the American Economic Association's quarterly journal (founded 2009, one of four AEJs) for microeconomic THEORY and its applications: game theory, mechanism and market design, industrial-organization theory, contract theory, information economics, decision theory, behavioral theory, and theory-grounded experiments. AEJ: Micro is theory-first — it rewards a clean, general, well-motivated result, with structural/experimental applications welcome when the economics is the point.
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as AEJ: Micro. Operational tells that you are at AEJ: Micro and not a sibling: it wants broad micro interest + the AEA editorial process (vs. specialist JET / GEB / Theoretical Economics); it is less abstract/methodological than TE or Econometrica; and it is theory, not empirical applied micro (that is AEJ: Applied). Process tells: single-blind review via the AEA submission system (author revealed to referees; referees anonymous), a submission fee (AEA member rate — volatile), JEL classification per AEA practice, and the AEA Data and Code Availability Policy for any paper with data, code, experiments, or numerical results. Re-verify volatile specifics on the official AEA pages (see resources/official-source-map.md).
When to trigger
- The user asks "what should I do next?"
- A draft needs its current bottleneck diagnosed
- Work is ping-ponging between the model, the proofs, the framing, and the response letter
- An AEJ: Micro decision letter arrived and the user needs to switch into revision mode
Routing table
| Current symptom | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Unsure the question is broad-micro-interesting theory (not JET/TE/AEJ:Applied) | aejmic-topic-selection |
| Contribution vs. the closest existing result is fuzzy or oversold | aejmic-literature-positioning |
| The model, equilibrium concept, or proof architecture is the bottleneck | aejmic-theory-model |
| Unclear what makes the result tight / which assumption is doing the work | aejmic-identification |
| Extensions, edge cases, or (applied) robustness checks are missing | aejmic-robustness |
| Propositions, numerical examples, or experimental exhibits are messy | aejmic-tables-figures |
| Prose buries the result; abstract/intro do not land | aejmic-writing-style |
| Proof appendix, numerical/structural/experimental code deposit, README | aejmic-replication-package |
| Want to anticipate referee objections / calibrate desk-reject odds | aejmic-referee-strategy |
| Ready to submit via the AEA system; need a preflight | aejmic-submission |
| Received an R&R; need a response-letter strategy | aejmic-rebuttal |
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.

aejmic-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills (1,289 stars, last pushed 26d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,692 tokens. 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 2026-09-15.
