jie-tables-figures
Use when building or auditing tables and figures for a Journal of International Economics (JIE) manuscript — gravity/coefficient tables, event-study and pass-through impulse-response plots, structural counterfactual charts, and self-contained notes that an international-trade or open-economy-macro referee can read standalone. Shapes exhibits; it does not generate results.

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 (jie-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - Drafting the main regression/gravity tables or the headline figures - A figure or table cannot be understood without hunting through the text - You are unsure which exhibit should carry the headline result for a JIE referee ## JIE exhibit conventions JIE referees split between international trade and international macro/finance; build exhibits each side reads fluently, with **economic magnitudes** front and center (not just stars). ### Tables - **Gravity / PPML tables**: report the estimator (PPML), the fixed-effect structure (importer×time, exporter×time, pair), the number of zeros retained, and the trade elasticity with an economic reading. State the standard-error clustering (often multi-way for dyadic data). - **Macro/finance panels**: report the panel structure, dynamic-bias handling, and clustering; show the coefficient as an elasticity or semi-elasticity, not a bare number. - **Structural tables**: show **targeted vs untargeted moments** side by side and the calibrated/estimated parameters with sources. ### Figures - **Event-study / trade-policy plots**: pre-period leads near zero, confidence bands shown. - **Pass-

What does the jie-tables-figures skill do?
Use when building or auditing tables and figures for a Journal of International Economics (JIE) manuscript — gravity/coefficient tables, event-study and pass-through impulse-response plots, structural counterfactual charts, and self-contained notes that an international-trade or open-economy-macro referee can read standalone. Shapes exhibits; it does not generate results.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jie-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 984 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.
