# JEP Workflow Router (jep-workflow) ## Overview This is the router. It tells you **which jep-* skill to use at the current stage** of an article aimed at the *Journal of Economic Perspectives* (JEP) — the **open-access, non-technical synthesis** journal of the **American Economic Association**, founded 1987. JEP is **not** a primary-research outlet. It rewards articles that **synthesize and communicate** a body of economics to a broad audience — readable by **90 percent or more of the AEA membership** — avoiding formal models and heavy econometrics in the body. The product is a **compelling, accessible, balanced essay**, not an identification strategy or a replication package. Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as JEP. Operational tells that you are at JEP and not a research journal or its sibling *Journal of Economic Literature* (JEL): JEP is **largely invited / commissioned** and organized in **symposia**; almost all articles begin as a **2–5 page proposal** emailed to **jep@aeapubs.org** (about 10–15% of published articles originate as unsolicited proposals); the writing must be legible to non-specialists; there are recurring **features** ("Rec

What does the jep-workflow skill do?
Use when deciding which jep-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing work on an accessible synthesis article from topic idea through editor revision for a Journal of Economic Perspectives (JEP) submission. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jep-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.
