red-writing-style
Use when applying Review of Economic Dynamics (RED) house style — the stand-alone abstract not exceeding 250 words, author-year (Harvard-style) references, 1 to 6 keywords, LaTeX via Elsevier's elsarticle class under "your paper your way", and the generative-AI declaration. Drafting conventions for a quantitative dynamic paper; it does not invent results.

Lead with the question, the model, and the headline quantitative result. - **References**: **author-year (Harvard-style)** citation system; reference list alphabetical and consistent. - **Keywords**: **1 to 6** required. - **Formatting**: Elsevier's general Guide for Authors applies; **LaTeX accepted via the `elsarticle` class**; initial submission is flexible ("your paper your way"), so you need not fully typeset to Elsevier style for the first round. - **Generative AI**: any use of generative-AI tools must be **declared at submission**. - **Length**: this pack does not encode a RED-specific manuscript word/page cap.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill red-writing-style --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.
