# AEJ: Policy Workflow Router (aejpol-workflow)

## Overview

This is the router. It tells you **which aejpol-* skill to use at the current stage** of a manuscript aimed at the *American Economic Journal: Economic Policy* (AEJ: Policy) — the **American Economic Association's** quarterly journal for the **economic analysis OF policy**. AEJ: Policy rewards a paper built around a **clear policy question** whose answer carries a **welfare, cost-benefit, or distributional implication**, identified credibly (quasi-experimental / RCT / applied theory) and reproducible to AEA standards. The policy question and its counterfactual are the through-line of every skill below.

Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as AEJ: Policy. Operational tells that you are at AEJ: Policy and not a sibling: review is **single-blind** through the **AEA submission system** (the manuscript carries the title/byline/affiliations); **JEL codes** are required; the **AEA Data and Code Availability Policy** and the **AEA Data Editor** run a **pre-publication** reproducibility check on a deposit in the **AEA Data and Code Repository (openICPSR)**; the bar is **broad policy interest + credible causal evidence + a welfare/cost-benefit reading**, not a field-public-finance bar (J. Public Economics) or an identification-for-its-own-sake bar (AEJ: Applied). Re-verify volatile specifics (submission fee, editors) on the official AEA pages — official AEA pages checked 2026-06-20.

## When to trigger

- The user asks "what should I do next?"
- A draft needs its current bottleneck diagnosed
- Work is ping-ponging between identification, the policy framing, exhibits, and the response letter
- An AEJ: Policy decision letter arrived and the user needs to switch into revision mode
