aeri-workflow
Use when deciding which aeri-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing work on a short-format manuscript from topic selection through the conditional-accept response for an American Economic Review: Insights (AER: Insights) submission. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.

# AER: Insights Workflow Router (aeri-workflow)
## Overview
This is the router. It tells you **which aeri-* skill to use at the current stage** of a manuscript aimed at *American Economic Review: Insights* (AER: Insights) — the AEA's **short-format**, general-interest journal (founded 2019) for papers built around **ONE clear, important, well-executed idea**, empirical, theoretical, or methodological. The bar is **AER-level importance compressed into a short paper**. AER: Insights is the short sibling of the *American Economic Review* (long, multi-result, flagship) and is general-interest, unlike the field-oriented full papers of the *AEJ* family.
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as AER: Insights. The two operational tells that you are at AER: Insights and not AER or an AEJ: (1) a **hard length cap** — main text **≤7,000 words with no exhibits, minus 200 words per exhibit, maximum five exhibits**, abstract **≤100 words** — papers over the cap are returned unreviewed; (2) a **single insight** must carry the whole paper, with everything secondary pushed to the online Supplemental Appendix. Process tells: AEA **single-blind** review that is **fast and decisive — no traditional revise-and-resubmit; first decisions are conditional accept or reject**, and conditional accepts (usually an 8-week window) are normally **not** sent back to referees. Editor as of 2026: **Matthew Gentzkow** (lead editor beginning January 2024; founding editor Amy Finkelstein). Live-check volatile specifics on the official AEA pages.
## When to trigger
- The user asks "what should I do next?"
- A draft is over the word/exhibit cap or is sprawling into multiple results
- Work is ping-ponging between the core result, framing, exhibits, and the response letter
- An AER: Insights decision letter (conditional accept or reject) arrived
