jeem-robustness
Use when a Journal of Environmental Economics and Management (JEEM) manuscript's headline estimate — a damage, WTP, pass-through, or treatment effect — must be shown to survive specification, spatial, sample, and inference choices. Builds the targeted robustness suite environmental-economics referees expect; it does not establish primary identification (jeem-identification) or format exhibits (jeem-tables-figures).

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.
# Robustness Strategy (jeem-robustness) ## When to trigger - The main estimate is in hand and you must show it is not a one-specification artifact - A referee asks "is this robust to spatial correlation / alternative bandwidth / sample / functional form?" - The result depends on a market definition, a buffer radius, a weather aggregation, or a pollution-monitor selection that could be questioned - You suspect specification-search concerns in a hedonic or valuation and want to pre-empt them ## The JEEM robustness bar JEEM referees probe whether the welfare-relevant number is **stable, spatially honest, and not the product of researcher degrees of freedom**. Robustness here is not a wall of regressions — it is a **targeted set of checks each tied to a specific threat**, several of which are distinctively environmental. Map every plausible objection to the one check that answers it, and report so the reader sees the estimate barely moves. | Threat to the result | The check that answers it | |----------------------|---------------------------| | Spatial correlation in errors | Conley spatial SEs; vary the cutoff distance; cluster on geography | | Hedonic market / buffer definition | va

What does the jeem-robustness skill do?
Use when a Journal of Environmental Economics and Management (JEEM) manuscript's headline estimate — a damage, WTP, pass-through, or treatment effect — must be shown to survive specification, spatial, sample, and inference choices. Builds the targeted robustness suite environmental-economics referees expect; it does not establish primary identification (jeem-identification) or format exhibits (jeem-tables-figures).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jeem-robustness --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 984 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.
