jfi-tables-figures
Use when designing the exhibits for a Journal of Financial Intermediation (JFI) paper — banking-literate tables and figures with explicit sample construction, institution definitions, event timing, fixed-effect progressions that display demand absorption, and self-contained notes. It designs exhibits; it does not run the estimation.

Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Tables & Figures (jfi-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - Building or revising the table/figure set for a JFI submission - A referee found the exhibits hard to read or under-documented ## What JFI exhibits must do JFI exhibits are read by **banking and intermediation specialists**, so they must be self-contained and institution-aware: - **Summary / sample table first:** the bank/loan/firm universe, the data source (Call Reports, DealScan, HMDA, etc.), every filter, and units — readers must reconstruct the sample from the notes alone. - **Define institutions and variables in the notes:** what counts as a "bank," how credit/balance-sheet quantities are measured, the treatment and its timing. - **Main result table:** the headline specification with the FE structure visible, standard errors and the clustering level stated, and the mechanism estimate foregrounded. - **Event-study / dynamics figure:** for DID designs, a pre-trend-and-effect plot is often the single most persuasive exhibit; show confidence bands and the reference period. - **Robustness exhibits:** alternative samples, windows, and specifications, compactly tabulated. - **Theory papers:** a clean figure of the mechanism

What does the jfi-tables-figures skill do?
Use when designing the exhibits for a Journal of Financial Intermediation (JFI) paper — banking-literate tables and figures with explicit sample construction, institution definitions, event timing, fixed-effect progressions that display demand absorption, and self-contained notes. It designs exhibits; it does not run the estimation.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jfi-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.
