jmcb-tables-figures
Use when exhibits — IRF plots, coefficient/event-study figures, balance-sheet and regression tables — are the bottleneck for a Journal of Money, Credit and Banking (JMCB) manuscript. Makes each exhibit answer the question on its own; it does not re-run the analysis or write the prose.

# Tables and Figures (jmcb-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - An IRF figure has bands but no statement of what shock, what units, or what horizon - A regression table reports six columns and the reader cannot tell which is the headline - A bank balance-sheet or summary table is a data dump with no economic grouping - Significance is shown with asterisks alone, with no economic magnitude in view - The paper is at the 40-page limit and exhibits are competing for space with text ## The JMCB exhibit bar JMCB is a quantitative monetary/banking journal, so its signature exhibits are **impulse-response functions, local-projection coefficient plots, and event-study figures**, alongside the standard regression and balance-sheet tables. The bar is that each exhibit is **self-contained and economically legible**: a reader skimming should grasp the shock, the units, the horizon, the magnitude, and the uncertainty without hunting through the text. Because the journal recommends ≤40 pages including tables and figures, exhibit economy is also a length discipline — every panel must earn its place. ## Exhibit craft ### Impulse responses and local projections - **Label the shock and its size** ("r

What does the jmcb-tables-figures skill do?
Use when exhibits — IRF plots, coefficient/event-study figures, balance-sheet and regression tables — are the bottleneck for a Journal of Money, Credit and Banking (JMCB) manuscript. Makes each exhibit answer the question on its own; it does not re-run the analysis or write the prose.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jmcb-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.
