ecta-replication-package
Use when assembling the code and data deposit for an Econometrica manuscript under the journal's Data and Code Availability Policy, including reproducible Monte Carlo and (for empirical work) data provenance. Builds and audits the replication package; it does not design the simulations (use ecta-robustness) or format exhibits (use ecta-tables-figures).
npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ecta-replication-package --agent claude-code
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.
# Replication Package (ecta-replication-package) ## When to trigger - You are preparing the deposit required under the Data and Code Availability Policy - Monte Carlo tables cannot be regenerated bit-for-bit from a clean checkout - An empirical paper has no documented data provenance or access path - You are at acceptance / final-files stage and the Data Editor will verify reproducibility Econometrica (and the other Econometric Society journals) enforce a **single ES-wide Data and Code Availability Policy**. Concrete, Econometrica-specific specifics that differ from the AER/AEJ (AEA Data Editor + openICPSR) pipeline: - The policy applies to papers with **empirical, experimental, and/or simulation** results. A **pure-theory paper with no such results is effectively exempt** — but any requested exemption or limitation on data/code availability must be stated **at initial submission** (the handling Co-Editor decides; exemptions are not considered later). - Reproducibility is verified **before final acceptance** by the **Econometric Society Data Editor** team. In practice you submit final files at **Conditional Acceptance** to a separate Editorial Express account for the Data Editor's

What does the ecta-replication-package skill do?
Use when assembling the code and data deposit for an Econometrica manuscript under the journal's Data and Code Availability Policy, including reproducible Monte Carlo and (for empirical work) data provenance. Builds and audits the replication package; it does not design the simulations (use ecta-robustness) or format exhibits (use ecta-tables-figures).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ecta-replication-package --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.
