Paul Goldsmith-Pinkham joined Markus’ Academy for a mini-series on Claude Code for Applied Economists. This is the last episode of the 8 part series. Goldsmith-Pinkham is an Associate Professor of Finance at the Yale School of Management and a Faculty Research Fellow at NBER. Through a replication of Jay Ritter’s results on post-IPO stock performance, Paul shared some best practices for verifying Claude Code’s work. Integrating with GitHub let him track the project as a chain of committed steps rather than one final output, and review Claude’s work one change at a time.Finally, Paul connected the project’s repository to Overleaf via GitHub (Dropbox works too), so that Claude can update figures and tables directly in one’s paper. The core principle: every number in a draft should come from the code, not from an AI’s memory.Timestamps:[0:00] Verification is the new bottleneck[6:30] Using GitHub to verify Claude’s output[38:35] How to give feedback[52:27] Integration with Overleaf for Collaboration
