geb-review-process
Use when you need to understand how Games and Economic Behavior (GEB) actually evaluates a paper — the Editor-in-Charge model, anonymous Advisory Editors and referees, desk-reject and acceptance odds — so you can target the right audience and set expectations. Explains the process; it does not draft content.

# Review Process (geb-review-process) ## When to trigger - You want to know who actually decides on your GEB paper before submitting - You are calibrating expectations on desk-reject odds and timelines - You are writing a cover letter and need to know who reads it first - A decision arrived and you want to interpret the roles behind it ## The GEB Editor-in-Charge model (distinctive) GEB's process is unusually transparent about *who handles your paper* while keeping evaluators anonymous: - The **chief editor** (Hervé Moulin since 2021; 待核实 for the current masthead) assigns each submission to **one of seven Editors**, who becomes the **publicly known "Editor in Charge"** with **final decision authority** on your paper. You can see who holds your paper — unusual among journals. - The Editor in Charge typically routes the paper to an **anonymous Advisory Editor** (GEB has roughly **45** advisory editors; 待核实). The Advisory Editor **selects referees and recommends a decision**. - **Referees and Advisory Editors are anonymous to authors**; the Editor in Charge is not. This is best described as a **single-anonymized** model (authors known to evaluators; evaluators anonymous to authors) —

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill geb-review-process --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.
