About this skill
What does the fiscal-briefing skill do?

Public finances briefing. Supports UK, US, and Australia. Produces a single compact briefing on borrowing, debt, receipts, spending, and fiscal rules. Optional debt sustainability analysis via the debtkit R package. User-selectable sub-components and multi-format export.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills --skill fiscal-briefing --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/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills, a repository with 3,244 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.
