Journal Of Econometrics Skills

Agent skill stack for manuscripts targeted at the Journal of Econometrics (JoE) — an Elsevier methodological-econometrics journal (founded 1973) for substantive contributions to identification, estimation, testing, decision, and prediction problems in economic research, plus applications of econometric techniques. Co-Editors-in-Chief Michael Jansson (UC Berkeley) and Aureo de Paula (UCL). Reflects

npx skillmds@latest add plugin:brycewang-stanford/journal-of-econometrics-skills

One command, no setup. In Claude Code it lands as a managed plugin you can enable, disable or remove with /plugin. On any other agent it installs the 12 skills into that agent's own folder.

Or inside Claude Code

In the Plugins tab, add this marketplace:

skillmds/skillmd
/plugin install brycewang-stanford-journal-of-econometrics-skills@skillmd

Adds the marketplace once; later plugins need the second line only.

Skills in this plugin

▌
Joe Rebuttal · brycewang-stanford
Use after a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) revision request to plan the response letter and revised manuscript — handling technical referee objections on assumptions, asymptotics, and Monte Carlo, and resubmitting through the live official route (note the fee can re-trigger on resubmissions over one year old).

▌
Joe Workflow · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding which joe-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) manuscript from methodological topic selection through revision rebuttal. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.

▌
Joe Submission · brycewang-stanford bundle
Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for the Journal of Econometrics (JoE) — live portal routing, the USD $75 fee, ScienceDirect source-file rules, Editorial Express resubmission norms, 250-word abstract, single-anonymized review, and track selection. Final checks; it does not draft content.

▌
Joe Data Analysis · brycewang-stanford
Use when designing the Monte Carlo study and empirical illustration that demonstrate a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) method works in finite samples. Covers size/power simulation design, DGP stress tests, and the role of the applied illustration relative to the theory.

▌
Joe Writing Style · brycewang-stanford
Use to make a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) manuscript read in house style — a precise abstract under 250 words, a contribution-first introduction, legible theorem-and-proof exposition, and Elsevier elsarticle/[dataset] reference conventions. Late-stage polish; it does not invent results.

▌
Joe Review Process · brycewang-stanford
Use to understand and navigate the Journal of Econometrics (JoE) editorial process — single-anonymized review, editor screening before a minimum of two referees, the three submission tracks (Regular/Annals/Themed), Guest Associate Editors, and what referees of a methods paper look for.

▌
Joe Tables Figures · brycewang-stanford
Use when building the Monte Carlo tables and theory-illustrating figures for a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) manuscript. Covers size/power table conventions, estimator-comparison layout, and figures that make asymptotic and finite-sample behavior legible.

▌
Joe Topic Selection · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding whether a project is a genuine methodological contribution for the Journal of Econometrics (JoE) versus a purely applied result better placed elsewhere. Pressure-tests the idea against JoE's theory-plus-applied-methods scope before months are spent.

▌
Joe Contribution Framing · brycewang-stanford
Use when a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) manuscript has a correct result but fails to articulate why it matters to econometrics. Frames the methodological contribution as a general, reusable advance rather than a narrow technical fix.

▌
Joe Literature Positioning · brycewang-stanford
Use when the contribution of a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) manuscript relative to the econometrics literature is fuzzy or undersold. Locates the paper precisely against the nearest estimators, tests, and asymptotic results so referees see the methodological delta.

▌
Joe Identification Strategy · brycewang-stanford
Use when the assumptions, regularity conditions, identification result, and asymptotic theory of a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) methodological paper are the bottleneck. Stress-tests the formal core — what is assumed, what is proved, and how general it is — before tables are drafted.

▌
Joe Replication And Data Policy · brycewang-stanford
Use to prepare code and data materials for a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) submission under Elsevier's data-citation and availability norms, including reproducible Monte Carlo and the [dataset] reference tag. Reflects that JoE has no mandatory central replication archive — replication is encouraged, not universally mandated.
