# AEJ: Applied Workflow Router (aeja-workflow)
## Overview
This is the router. It tells you **which aeja-* skill to use at the current stage** of a manuscript aimed at the *American Economic Journal: Applied Economics* (AEJ: Applied) — the **American Economic Association's** quarterly journal for **empirical applied microeconomics with credible causal identification**: labor, development, health, education, public, urban, environmental, and household finance. AEJ: Applied is **empirical-first**: a clean research design carrying a substantive economic question, with theory used to *interpret and structure* rather than to lead.
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as AEJ: Applied. Operational tells that you are at AEJ: Applied and not a sibling: review is **single-blind** (author identities are visible to referees); submission is via the **AEA ScholarOne system** with fee tiers by AEA membership and country-income status; **JEL codes and a 100-word abstract** are required; and the signature stable differentiator is the **AEA Data and Code Availability Policy** — administered by the **AEA Data Editor (Lars Vilhuber)**, accepted papers deposit data + code to the **AEA Data and Code Repository on openICPSR**, and the package is checked for reproducibility before publication. On 2026-06-20 the editor page listed **Raymond Fisman** (Boston University) as Editor, with coeditors Leah Boustan, Marika Cabral, Peter Hull, Xavier Jaravel, and Nicholas Ryan. Check live AEA pages for fees and editors before submission-week advice.
## When to trigger
- The user asks "what should I do next?"
- A draft needs its current bottleneck diagnosed
- Work is ping-ponging between identification, framing, writing, and the response letter
- An AEJ: Applied decision letter arrived and the user needs to switch into revision mode
