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 | $0.00068 | $0.00833 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00333 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00167 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00083 |
Grade A, and why
aistats-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 — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AISTATS Workflow
Use this as the project-management skill for an AISTATS submission. Replace all dates with the current official timetable and work backwards from OpenReview cutoffs.
AISTATS is a conference, not a journal: it has no standing editor-in-chief and no article-processing charge. The rotating leadership is the per-edition General Chairs and Program Chairs (2026 General Chairs: Emtiyaz Khan and Yingzhen Li; Program Chairs: Arno Solin and Aaditya Ramdas, verified 2026-06-22), and the cost model is registration fees, not APCs — PMLR proceedings are open-access with no author fee. Conference organizers rotate yearly, so re-check the current CFP and organization page rather than carrying a name forward.
Milestones
- Venue fit: confirm the contribution is genuinely at the AI, ML, and statistics interface.
- Evidence lock: freeze theorem statements, assumptions, experiments, simulations, baselines, reproducibility checklist, and supplement contents.
- Abstract deadline: submit real title, abstract, authors, subject areas, and conflicts.
- Full-paper deadline: upload anonymous PDF and required OpenReview fields.
- Supplement deadline: upload anonymized appendix/code/data if current cycle allows or requires separate supplementary material.
- Review release: triage correctness, statistical validity, novelty, clarity, and reproducibility concerns.
- Discussion period: draft concise anonymous text-only clarifications; avoid forbidden links or unsupported new results.
- Decision: archive reviews, discussion, meta-review, decision, and submitted versions.
- Acceptance: prepare PMLR camera-ready files, registration, in-person presentation, and public artifact release.
Backward plan from the paper deadline
| Weeks out (heuristic) | Theory-plus-experiments milestone |
|---|---|
| 8+ | Theorems proved, assumption set frozen |
| 6 | Simulations designed against each theorem |
| 4 | Real-data runs complete, seeds logged |
| 3 | Full draft sitting in AISTATS two-column format |
| 2 | Internal mock review by a statistics-minded reader |
| 1 | Checklist pass, anonymity sweep, supplement assembly |
| 0 | Abstract then full 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.

aistats-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills (1,259 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 68 tokens to every session and 833 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-15.
