aejmac-robustness
Use when the headline result of an American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics (AEJ: Macro) manuscript must be shown stable across specification, sample, identification, and tuning choices. Builds the robustness program a macro referee will demand; it does not establish the primary identification or model (use aejmac-identification / aejmac-theory-model first).

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Robustness Program (aejmac-robustness) ## When to trigger - The headline number rests on one specification, one sample, one lag length, or one grid - A referee could ask "is this an artifact of [choice]?" and you have no panel of alternatives - The empirical IRF and the model-implied response are compared but only at the baseline - A structural/calibrated result has never been re-run under alter
What does the aejmac-robustness skill do?

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill aejmac-robustness --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
