Individual skill

jme-workflow

Use when deciding which jme-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic selection through the "up or out" rebuttal for a Journal of Monetary Economics (JME) submission. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.

# JME Workflow Router (jme-workflow)

## Overview

This is the router. It does not replace any specialized skill. It tells you **which jme-* skill to use at the current stage** of a manuscript aimed at the *Journal of Monetary Economics* (JME).

Default assumption: unless told otherwise, treat the target as JME — Elsevier's leading outlet for **monetary economics and macroeconomics broadly defined** (monetary theory and policy, central banking, business cycles, growth, financial intermediation, fiscal interactions, expectations), in both quantitative/DSGE and empirical/applied-policy modes. Operational tells you are at JME and not a generic top econ journal: submission via **Elsevier Editorial Manager** (`editorialmanager.com/monec/`); a **US$350 fee** (US$200 for full-time PhD students) charged **up front** (no fee on resubmission; half refunded on a direct return); **single anonymized** (single-blind) review with at least two reviewers; the distinctive **"up or out" first-revision rule** and the **~50% publication-likelihood threshold** for an R&R; a strict **40-page / ≤10 tables-and-figures** cap on accepted papers; a **100-word abstract** that may not begin with "This paper" or "We"; and the annual **Carnegie-Rochester-NYU Conference Series on Public Policy** issue. Editors are S. Borağan Aruoba (Maryland) and Eric Swanson (UC Irvine). Re-verify volatile specifics on the official page.

## When to trigger

- The user asks "what should I do next?"
- The user hands over a draft and needs the current bottleneck diagnosed
- Work is ping-ponging between the model, the empirics, writing, and the response letter
- A JME decision letter arrived (reject / revise-and-resubmit) and the user needs to switch modes
