From econometrica-skills
Assembles and audits the code and data deposit for an Econometrica manuscript under the journal's Data and Code Availability Policy, including reproducible Monte Carlo and data provenance.

- You are preparing the deposit required under the Data and Code Availability Policy
Econometrica (and the other Econometric Society journals) enforce a single ES-wide Data and Code Availability Policy. Concrete, Econometrica-specific specifics that differ from the AER/AEJ (AEA Data Editor + openICPSR) pipeline:
Verify the current policy text and deposit location on the official ES Data Editor site before finalizing — the specifics evolve.
Build the package as you go, not the night before final files. A package assembled from memory at the end almost never reproduces — and here a real human Data Editor will run it.
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Code | All scripts that produce every table, figure, and number in the paper and Supplemental Material |
| Master script | One command (run_all) regenerates every exhibit end to end |
| Random seeds | Every stochastic step seeded and recorded, so Monte Carlo tables reproduce bit-for-bit (simulations are covered by the ES policy) |
| Environment | Software, version numbers, and pinned dependencies (Docker / renv / conda / Project.toml) |
| README (PDF) | Hardware, expected runtime, data sources, file-by-file description, exhibit ↔ script map; use the Social Science Data Editors' README template |
| Data (empirical) | The data, or — when proprietary/restricted — exact provenance and an access path that lets a replicator obtain it |
| Deposit | The Econometric Society Journals' Community at Zenodo (after the Data Editor's checks; reserve a DOI in advance), unless a trusted DOI repository is approved |
| License / terms | Any data-use restrictions documented; redistribution rights respected |

npx claudepluginhub brycewang-stanford/awesome-journal-skills --plugin econometrica-skillsPrepares replication packages for The Econometrics Journal: README, software versions, data documentation, seeds, proprietary-data exemptions, and OUP Supporting Information. Use after conditional acceptance or before submission risk review.
Builds a data and code replication package for an Economic Journal manuscript to RES/EJ Data Editor standard, including README, data documentation, and Zenodo deposit preparation. Does not run the analysis.
Assembles the data-and-code replication package for a REStat manuscript, including deposit to the REStat Harvard Dataverse with a replication-permitting README.
