Use when deciding which ier-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic through rebuttal for an International Economic Review (IER) manuscript. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# IER Workflow Router (ier-workflow) ## Overview This is the router. It tells you **which ier-* skill to use at the current stage** of a manuscript aimed at the *International Economic Review* (IER) — the broad, rigor-leaning general-interest journal founded in **1960** "to provide a forum for modern quantitative economics," owned by the **Economics Department of the University of Pennsylvania** together with the **Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER), Osaka University**, and published with Wiley. "International" names the Penn–Osaka partnership (and the Klein Lectures it hosts), not a field restriction: IER covers **economic theory, econometrics, quantitative/structural macro, and applied micro**, with a pronounced **theory/structural tilt** and a premium on methodological rigor, generality, and a clean model-to-evidence link. Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as IER. Operational tells that you are at IER and not a sibling: submission runs through **Editorial Express** (editorialexpress.com/ier), not ScholarOne/Manuscript Central (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准); there is a **flat US$150 / ¥15,000 submission fee** and the paper is not reviewed unt

What does the ier-workflow skill do?
Use when deciding which ier-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic through rebuttal for an International Economic Review (IER) manuscript. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ier-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.
