# JEG Manuscript Workflow (jeg-workflow) ## When to trigger - Starting a paper you hope to send to the Journal of Economic Growth and wanting a map - Unsure which jeg skill to use next, or in what order - Deciding whether your project is a *theory* paper, an *empirical* paper, or a quantitative/calibrated hybrid — the branch that conditions everything downstream ## What JEG is (and what it conditions) JEG is the principal specialist outlet for **theoretical and empirical research in economic growth and dynamic macroeconomics**: neoclassical and endogenous growth, human capital, fertility and the demographic transition, trade-and-growth, financial development, migration, technological change, the political economy of growth, and OLG models. It is edited by Oded Galor and published by Springer Nature (est. 1996, quarterly). It is **not** a general-interest journal — fit to the growth/dynamic-macro scope is the first gate. Because JEG runs roughly equal theory and empirics, classify your paper early; the identification, data-analysis, and replication skills each fork on this. ## The sequence 1. **jeg-topic-selection** — is this a first-order *growth* question inside JEG's scope? 2. **

What does the jeg-workflow skill do?
Use when orienting and sequencing a full manuscript lifecycle for the Journal of Economic Growth (JEG) — a specialist Springer Nature outlet for economic growth and dynamic macroeconomics spanning theory and empirics. Routes to the other eleven jeg skills and branches by paper type.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jeg-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.
