jeg-tables-figures
Use when preparing Journal of Economic Growth exhibits: growth-regression tables, convergence plots, transition paths, calibration moments, historical-data maps, robustness tables, and appendix diagnostics.
Profile →npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jeg-tables-figures --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.
# Tables & Figures (jeg-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - Main results exist but exhibits do not communicate growth mechanisms - Calibration or simulation output needs a readable structure - Empirical tables lack sample, fixed-effect, clustering, or unit notes ## Exhibit architecture - **Descriptive growth facts**: long-run trends, cross-country dispersion, transition paths, or cohort patterns. - **Main estimates or model results**: one table/figure per claim, not per estimator experiment. - **Mechanism exhibits**: human capital, fertility, technology, institutions, financial development, migration, or political economy channels. - **Robustness/sensitivity**: alternative samples, periods, specifications, calibration targets, and parameter values. ## JEG-specific polish - Use economically meaningful units: annual percentage points of growth, log GDP per worker, schooling years, fertility rates, TFP, steady-state ratios. - Label whether an exhibit is empirical, calibrated, simulated, or theoretical. - For transition paths, show initial condition, time scale, and steady state. - For cross-country panels, disclose country coverage and period. ## Exhibit sequence Most JEG papers need
- When to trigger
- Exhibit architecture
- JEG-specific polish
- Exhibit sequence
- Growth exhibit contract
- Map and spatial-exhibit standards
- Worked vignette — rebuilding a persistence main table
- Exhibit-count anchor (hedged)
- Execution bridge (StatsPAI / Stata MCP)

What does the jeg-tables-figures skill do?
Use when preparing Journal of Economic Growth exhibits: growth-regression tables, convergence plots, transition paths, calibration moments, historical-data maps, robustness tables, and appendix diagnostics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jeg-tables-figures --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.
