jegeo-workflow — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited jegeo-workflow (Agent Skill) and scored it 100/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 0 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

This is the router. It tells you *which jegeo- skill to use at the current stage* of a manuscript aimed at the Journal of Economic Geography (JEG) — Oxford University Press's flagship for the bridge between economics and geography*: agglomeration and clusters, regional and urban development, the economic geography of trade and global value chains, innovation and knowledge spillovers, institutions and space, evolutionary economic geography, and the location of firms and people.
The fact that defines JEG and every routing decision below: the journal deliberately spans two communities — "geographical economics" (the formal, quantitative New Economic Geography lineage of Krugman, Fujita, Venables, and the quantitative-spatial-model literature) AND "proper economic geography" (the institutional, evolutionary, and qualitative tradition of human geographers). Its masthead is drawn roughly equally from both (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准: EICs include Bathelt, Behrens, Coe, Iammarino, Kerr). A paper that speaks to only one community is the single most common desk-reject. Route accordingly: every stage must be defensible to an economist AND legible to a geographer.
Operational tells that you are at JEG and not a sibling: submission is via ScholarOne / Manuscript Central (mc.manuscriptcentral.com/joeg); review is double-anonymous (strip author identity); the data/replication policy is encouragement-based and post-acceptance, NOT a mandatory pre-acceptance archive (that distinguishes it sharply from QE, AEJ, and the AEA journals); standard articles run ≤8,000 words excluding references with overflow pushed to an online appendix.

| Current symptom | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Scope/audience/two-community fit is uncertain | jegeo-topic-selection |
| Contribution vs. adjacent journals and the NEG/EEG frontier is fuzzy | jegeo-literature-positioning |
| Causal or spatial-inference credibility is the bottleneck | jegeo-identification |
| The NEG model, quantitative-spatial framework, or conceptual frame is loose | jegeo-theory-model |
| Results may be spatial-scale-, weight-matrix-, sample-, or inference-sensitive | jegeo-robustness |
| Maps/exhibits are dense or do not answer the spatial question | jegeo-tables-figures |
| Intro/abstract/prose miss the two-audience JEG voice | jegeo-writing-style |
| Data, code, or spatial-data documentation needs packaging | jegeo-replication-package |
| Likely two-community objections should be pre-empted | jegeo-referee-strategy |
| Close to submission; need a ScholarOne preflight | jegeo-submission |
| A decision letter / referee report needs a response plan | jegeo-rebuttal |
jegeo-topic-selection — lock a question that genuinely bridges the two communitiesjegeo-literature-positioning — stake the contribution across NEG and human-geography frontiersjegeo-identification — spatial causal design or quantitative-spatial identificationjegeo-theory-model — NEG/quantitative-spatial model OR conceptual frameworkjegeo-robustness — spatial scale, weight matrix, spatial autocorrelation, Conley SEsjegeo-tables-figures — maps that argue, not decoratejegeo-writing-style — make it land for economists and geographers at once (intro last)jegeo-replication-package — assemble shareable spatial data + codejegeo-referee-strategy — anticipate the cross-disciplinary referee pairjegeo-submission — ScholarOne preflight + double-anonymous scrubjegeo-rebuttal — after the decision letterjegeo-writing-style is a late-stage polish; do not rewrite the intro before identification, mechanism, and the spatial-robustness story settle.JEG draws four recurring archetypes, and the binding constraint differs by branch. Read the archetype, then enter the chain at the right link.
| Archetype | Likely first bottleneck | Enter at |
|---|---|---|
| NEG / quantitative-spatial model (Krugman/Fujita/Redding-Rossi-Hansberg lineage) | parameter identification + calibration discipline | jegeo-theory-model → jegeo-identification |
| place-based-policy / regional causal evaluation | spatial DID/event-study + SUTVA across regions | jegeo-identification |
| evolutionary / institutional / qualitative geography | conceptual frame legible to economists; case-based inference | jegeo-theory-model → jegeo-literature-positioning |
| agglomeration / clusters / knowledge-spillover measurement | spatial-scale choice + spatial autocorrelation in inference | jegeo-robustness → jegeo-identification |
A user says: "My quantitative-spatial model of a high-speed-rail corridor estimates fine, but one referee (an economist) says the welfare counterfactual ignores spatial spillovers to non-connected regions, and the other (a geographer) says the paper has no mechanism — just a black-box gravity structure." That is two distinct JEG pushbacks from the two communities: spatial spillover / general-equilibrium leakage (own jegeo-identification and jegeo-robustness via Conley SEs and SUTVA) and missing economic-geography mechanism (own jegeo-theory-model, where the gravity coefficients must be tied to a story about why firms relocate). Route to jegeo-theory-model first to install the mechanism both referees can read, then to jegeo-robustness to bound the spillover, then jegeo-rebuttal.
