ectheory-workflow
Use as the router for an Econometric Theory (ET) manuscript — decides which ectheory-* skill to invoke next across the theorem-proof lifecycle, from topic selection through single-anonymous review and rebuttal. Start here when unsure where you are.
npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ectheory-workflow --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.
# Workflow Router (ectheory-workflow) ## When to trigger - Starting a new theorem-proof paper aimed at *Econometric Theory* (ET) and unsure which step comes first - Mid-project and unsure whether the bottleneck is the assumptions, the proofs, the simulations, or the framing - Deciding whether the paper is a full **Article** or a short **Miscellanea** (typically <20 pages, often ~15) - About to submit and wanting the right preflight and review-process skills ## What ET is, in one paragraph ET, published by **Cambridge University Press** and founded by **Peter C. B. Phillips**, publishes the mathematical and statistical foundations of econometrics — asymptotic theory, probability-theoretic methods, time series and nonstationarity, high-dimensional and non-standard environments. Papers are **theorem-proof in style** with supporting lemmas, derivations, and often Monte Carlo or numerical illustration. From **1 January 2026** three joint Editors-in-Chief (Guggenberger, Su, Sun) succeed founding editor Phillips, with a program of invited papers with discussions and themed special issues. ## Default sequence ```text ectheory-topic-selection (is the result general + foundational enough?) ▼

What does the ectheory-workflow skill do?
Use as the router for an Econometric Theory (ET) manuscript — decides which ectheory-* skill to invoke next across the theorem-proof lifecycle, from topic selection through single-anonymous review and rebuttal. Start here when unsure where you are.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ectheory-workflow --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.
