What it does

The set turns the questions of where to submit, how to write and why you were rejected into installable skills tailored to specific journals and conferences. There are packs for leading venues in economics, management and finance, plus AI and computer-science conferences. A skill runs a pre-submission preflight against a venue's rules: word and exhibit limits, abstract cap, fees, author metadata, declarations and the data and code availability policy. Each pack installs as a Claude Code or Codex plugin, and you can take a single venue or a broad collection.

Who it is for. For researchers and paper authors preparing a submission to a specific journal.

Good fit when

  • You need to check a paper against a specific journal's rules before submitting
  • You need to decide where to submit
  • You need help with a rebuttal and revision strategy

Not a fit when

  • Your journal or conference is not among the supported ones
  • You need help with the research itself rather than formatting and submission

Example request

Check my paper against the AER Insights requirements before submission

Limitations

The skills check venue rules and help with formatting but do not guarantee acceptance or write the research for you. Journal rules change, so do the final check against the venue's current guidelines. Some material is in Chinese.

How to disable. Uninstall the packs via /plugin or remove the awesome-journal-skills marketplace.

FAQ

Do I need to install all packs?

No. You install the pack for your journal or conference, or a broad collection such as research-toolkit-skills.

Does the skill replace the journal's rules?

No. It is a pre-submission preflight; do the final check against the venue's current requirements.

README in short

The README describes a per-journal approach: each venue or conference gets its own installable skill pack covering venue choice, formatting and review. Installation goes through the Claude Code and Codex plugin marketplace, with packs installed one at a time, for example qje-skills or research-toolkit-skills. The repository collects packs for economics, management, finance and AI and computer-science conferences. MIT licensed.

name: aeri-submission
description: Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for American Economic Review: Insights (AER: Insights) via the AEA/ScholarOne submission system — the word-count and exhibit-count gates, abstract limit, fees, author metadata, declarations, and the AEA Data and Code Availability Policy. Final checks; it does not draft content.

# Submission Preflight (aeri-submission)

## When to trigger

- "Submitting tomorrow" — last check before pressing submit on the AEA portal
- Verifying the word count and exhibit count clear the auto-return gates
- Unsure which files, fees, and declarations the AEA system expects
