jfqa-replication-and-data-policy
Use when building the code and data archive required by the Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis (JFQA) Code Sharing Policy — source code reproducing all findings, raw or pseudo datasets, and a read-me with an execution roadmap, deposited in the JFQA Dataverse at the Harvard University Dataverse. Use to prepare the mandatory archive for accepted post-2024 submissions and to request any exception at initial submission.

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.
# JFQA Replication & Data Policy (jfqa-replication-and-data-policy) Use this skill to satisfy the **JFQA Code Sharing Policy**. It is **mandatory** for submissions made **on or after January 1, 2024** if the paper is accepted (voluntary for earlier submissions). Materials are posted **at acceptance, before online publication**. Re-verify the live policy before final packaging. ## What you must deposit 1. **Source code** that reproduces **all reported findings from the raw data** — every table and figure. 2. **The raw datasets**, OR — if restricted by copyright/confidentiality (common with CRSP, Compustat, TAQ, etc.) — a **pseudo dataset** with enough observations that all programs **execute successfully**. 3. A **"read me" file** documenting the software, languages, and data formats, plus a **roadmap of the program execution order** when there are multiple programs. ## Where it goes - Archived in the **JFQA Dataverse**, hosted at the **Harvard University Dataverse**, as supplemental materials. - Code is licensed for **academic research only**; users must **acknowledge the code's origin**. ## Exceptions (timing matters) - Any **exception** — e.g., delayed code sharing — must be requ

What does the jfqa-replication-and-data-policy skill do?
Use when building the code and data archive required by the Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis (JFQA) Code Sharing Policy — source code reproducing all findings, raw or pseudo datasets, and a read-me with an execution roadmap, deposited in the JFQA Dataverse at the Harvard University Dataverse.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jfqa-replication-and-data-policy --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.
