Skill UI

This router guides authors through the complex publication lifecycle for Quantitative Economics (QE) submissions. It diagnoses current bottlenecks—whether in topic framing, data analysis, contribution clarity, or writing style—and directs the user to the precise specialized skill needed at that stage, ensuring a structured path from initial concept to final submission or rebuttal.

This guide helps authors polish the prose, abstract, and introduction of quantitative economics manuscripts for a general-interest Econometric Society readership. It emphasizes structuring the paper to clearly present both a substantive economic question and a quantitative method. It adheres to QE house rules, requiring findings to be communicated through point estimates with standard errors and confidence sets, rather than relying on statistical asterisks.

This router guides the author through the complex, multi-stage process of submitting a top-tier economics manuscript to the Quarterly Journal of Economics (QJE). It diagnoses the current bottleneck—whether it's conceptual framing, causal identification, robustness checks, or writing style—and directs the user to the appropriate specialized skill stage (e.g., literature positioning, identifying, rebuttal). It does not replace specialized skills but ensures optimal workflow sequencing.

This skill polishes scholarly prose, abstracts, and introductions to align with the narrative-driven, ambitious style of the Quarterly Journal of Economics (QJE). It focuses on making the core research contribution immediately legible to a general-interest, non-specialist reader, ensuring the big idea lands fast, even in long-form empirical papers. The skill guides users on structuring the 'introduction arc,' stating findings with concrete numbers, and minimizing technical jargon.

This tool guides authors writing on industrial organization, market structure, regulation, and antitrust. It provides a rigorous framework for evaluating whether a manuscript meets the high standards of top-tier IO journals by assessing theoretical models, empirical identification, and policy significance. Use it for venue selection and manuscript re-framing.

This guide helps researchers determine if their project's core contribution is genuinely centered on recommender systems. It provides a structured fit test to route the work to the most appropriate top-tier venue (RecSys, SIGIR, KDD, etc.) and select the correct conference track before starting the writing process.

A comprehensive project management skill designed for academic submissions in Recommender Systems (RecSys). It guides users through the entire research lifecycle, from initial venue fit and data freezing to abstract submission, full paper writing, anonymous repository management, rebuttal drafting, and final camera-ready preparation. It provides backward-planning time offsets and risk identification.

A comprehensive guide for revising academic papers in recommendation systems (RecSys). It covers best practices for structuring the first page, ensuring rigorous evaluation protocols (e.g., temporal splits, equal-budget baselines), and avoiding methodological overclaims, helping authors meet the standards of top-tier AI conferences.

Comprehensive stylistic guidelines for submitting quantitative dynamic economic papers to the Review of Economic Dynamics (RED). This guide covers critical conventions, including structuring the abstract to lead with quantitative results, mastering Harvard referencing, adhering to LaTeX formatting, and emphasizing dynamic mechanisms for top-tier academic submission.

This skill is designed to polish the writing style and structure of interdisciplinary Research Policy manuscripts. It ensures that the core innovation-studies argument is clear and accessible to diverse readerships, including economists, management scholars, and policymakers. It focuses on structuring the narrative, translating field-specific jargon, and making the policy contribution visible and impactful throughout the paper.

This guide helps researchers precisely define the marginal contribution (the 'delta') of their academic work. Instead of writing a general literature tour, it instructs authors to compare their findings directly against 3-5 most proximate prior papers, emphasizing specific advancements in identification or measurement. It is crucial for submissions to high-stakes journals.

A comprehensive guide for drafting a response-to-referees letter and revision plan after receiving a major academic decision (R&R or reject-and-resubmit) from top-tier journals like REStat. It teaches the strategy of structuring evidence-based rebuttals, prioritizing core identification/measurement concerns, and handling conflicting referee demands to maximize acceptance chances. Note: This skill guides writing strategy, not new analysis.
