mathfin-workflow
Router for a Mathematical Finance (Wiley) manuscript — decides which mathfin sub-skill to use next across the theorem-first lifecycle, from problem selection through Wiley Research Exchange submission and revision. Use when orienting a financial-mathematics paper built on stochastic analysis and full proofs, or when unsure which stage is the current bottleneck.

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.
# Workflow Router (mathfin-workflow) ## When to trigger - Starting a new financial-mathematics paper aimed at *Mathematical Finance* and unsure where to begin - Mid-project and unsure which step is the current bottleneck (theorem? exposition? numerics?) - Want a single map of the Mathematical Finance pipeline before diving in ## What Mathematical Finance rewards *Mathematical Finance* (Wiley-Blackwell, affiliated with the **Bachelier Finance Society**) is a **theory-first** venue. Submissions must be in a **mathematically rigorous style** and are evaluated on **methodological novelty and contribution to financial modelling** — not on empirical or data-driven finance. Papers must be **self-contained, including full proofs**; detailed analysis belongs in an **Appendix**; numerical experiments are welcome **only** when they support rigorous theoretical developments. Review is **single-blind**, screened first by the Editor. This router keeps every step aligned to that bar. ## The pipeline (and which skill owns each step) ```text mathfin-topic-selection (is the problem novel + rigorously tractable?) ▼ mathfin-literature-positioning (place the result against the stochastic-analysis front

What does the mathfin-workflow skill do?
Router for a Mathematical Finance (Wiley) manuscript — decides which mathfin sub-skill to use next across the theorem-first lifecycle, from problem selection through Wiley Research Exchange submission and revision. Use when orienting a financial-mathematics paper built on stochastic analysis and full proofs, or when unsure which stage is the current bottleneck.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill mathfin-workflow --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.
