# Review Process (jme-review-process) ## When to trigger - You need to set expectations for what happens after submission - You are unsure what "up or out" means for your revision strategy - You want to know whether to suggest referees or request exclusions - A decision arrived and you need to interpret it ## How JME review works - **Single anonymized (single-blind) review**: reviewers know the author identities; **authors do not know the reviewers.** Plan your framing and self-citation accordingly — there is no point anonymizing the manuscript. - **At least two reviewers**: suitable submissions are typically sent to a **minimum of two reviewers.** - **Editors**: the journal is led by two **co-Editors-in-Chief**, **S. Borağan Aruoba (University of Maryland)** and **Eric Swanson (University of California, Irvine)** (Aruoba appointed as one of the two Editors-in-Chief effective January 1, 2022); neither outranks the other. - **Suggested / excluded referees**: in the cover letter, authors **may suggest up to five referees** and request that some not be used. - **Reconsideration**: a formal reconsideration of a rejection is **costly, rare, and unlikely to reverse** the decision — do no

About this skill
What does the jme-review-process skill do?

Use when you need to understand how the Journal of Monetary Economics (JME) review process actually works — single anonymized (single-blind) review with at least two reviewers, the distinctive "up or out" first-revision rule, the ~50% publication-likelihood threshold for an R&R, suggested referees, and reconsideration.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jme-review-process --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.
