Compatibility: claude-code codex
Three sibling repos by the same maintainer cataloged as one pack: the flagship econ-review referee skill (staged workflow with claim reconstruction before critique, exhaustive audit passes, per-comment verification, PDF ingestion, benchmark cases, tests, and a local "Review Desk" web viewer), the paper-to-Beamer-talk skill from https://github.com/hanlulong/econ-slides-skill (bundled themes, templates, deck/script checkers), and the econ-write paper-writing skill from https://github.com/hanlulong/econ-writing-skill (synthesizes 50+ writing guides; the review skill hands off to it for implementing edits). Young pack overall — the review and slides repos were created mid-July 2026, days before curation; the writing repo dates to Feb 2026. A fourth sibling, econ-auto-research, is a vision-statement README with no skill content and is not cataloged.
