These are the three skills that I use to begin my reviews, now freely available for anyone to use:
/review
Point your agent at a folder with an article, its supplementary material, and replication package, and it will assess it.
/audit-review
The agent will verify the initial review, checking for accuracy and completeness.
/review-digest
The agent will produce a human-readable digest of the the review.
I have developed these skills using the AI models of Anthropic, Cognition, Google, and OpenAI. Today, I typically run them using Opus 5.5 High. I suspect that Sol 6.1 would also produce good results, although I haven't tested it. Argon may as well. The skills burn a lot of tokens.
When using them, you should remember that the results have been produced by robots and should be verified by humans. That said, verification steps are included in the skills, and the results tend to be reliable.
You can use them by pointing your agents here: github.com/isitcredible/rese…. These are still beta versions, so all feedback is very welcome. I would particularly appreciate the thoughts of econometricians and anyone outside economics.
Finally, I should stress that this is only how I begin my reviews. Quite a lot of human labour can go into them subsequently.

I keep seeing people run all sorts of documents through Pangram and get outraged when they come back as AI-positive. I feel like I’m starting to lose sight of what we’re trying to achieve here. Is the outrage always warranted? 1/

Voters may not recall correlation between policies and outcomes
Political narratives can exploit that through plausible narratives that reattribute outcomes to steal credit & shift blame
But with new govt is in office, narrative fades to reality and voters penalize incumbent

🏆 Congratulations to Piero De Dominicis @p_dedominicis (Bocconi), winner of the SCE Graduate Student Paper Award at #CEF2026 in Venice!
Runners-up: Yoshiya Yokomoto (Keio) & Steven Hoekstra (Amsterdam).
Bravo to all three! 👏

Here is a less cryptic description of our paper!
Very happy that my paper with @frbilo found a wonderful home.
This was our second-year paper, and in many ways where research started for us: many conversations, whiteboards, arguments about politics and narratives, some frustration, and lots of fun.
What is it about? 👇
In a dream last night, @ManferdiniG whispered in my ear
The public sees grain
But not which hand sowed the seed
So power tells tale

I coded up an open-source, not-for-profit AI paper reviewer that rivals the performance of @reviewer3com, @RefineInk, and Stanford Agentic Reviewer (according to @GeminiApp). Costs <$2!
Live @ coarse.ink. Plug in paper, @OpenRouter key, and email. #econtwitter.
Looking forward!
