What is econ-topjournal-writing-skill?

This repository is a writing assistant toolkit for economics researchers who want to write or polish academic papers for top journals. It provides a set of modular "skills", structured instructions and workflows, designed to be loaded into an AI coding and writing environment called Codex. The toolkit covers several distinct tasks: writing English-language economics papers in the style expected by leading journals, writing and polishing Chinese-language papers for top Chinese economics journals, and designing tables and figures that meet academic publication standards. A central routing skill takes your writing request and automatically directs it to the right sub-skill. You would use this when you have already done your own research, you have the data, the regressions, and the findings, and now need help turning that material into a polished academic paper draft. The toolkit handles prose structure, argument logic, table formatting, and bilingual presentation. It does not do data cleaning, statistical estimation, or any empirical computation. To install it, you copy the skill directories into your Codex skills folder, then ask an AI agent to "use econ-writing-workflow" and describe what you need. The repository notes that AI assistance only supports the drafting process, key academic judgments still require human researchers.
