The JFE Tables and Figures Formatter skill guides empirical finance researchers in designing polished, publication-ready exhibits tailored to Journal of Financial Economics (JFE) standards. It enforces best practices such as self-contained table notes, disciplined column ordering, consistent standard error and significance reporting, and inclusion of key econometrics metadata like fixed effects and cluster levels. Additionally, it streamlines exhibit triage between the main manuscript and the Internet Appendix, provides guidance for grayscale figure readability, and integrates with econometric execution tools for automated, reproducible table and figure generation.
