prepare-conference-manuscripts is a skill in gxCaesar/open-research-skills, last changed 15 Sept 2026. It can run shell commands, reach the network, name web addresses and bundle scripts — read the findings before installing.

From the author
Use when preparing, drafting, revising, polishing, rebutting, auditing, anonymizing, packaging, or checking a conference manuscript, abstract, appendix, supplement, rebuttal, author response, camera-ready paper, or conference statistical or evaluation report for AAAI, ICLR, ACL, CVPR, ICML, NeurIPS, or another peer-reviewed computing venue. Also use for single-section or section-by-section polish and resuming the next section. Includes manuscript-context figures and venue-package checks without requiring another skill; disputed experiment evidence must be resolved before changing manuscript prose.

What it can touch

From the files and frontmatter at commit c79bac6. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.

Pattern check

Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit c79bac6 · 3 Nov 2026

We checked every text file in this skill, at commit c79bac6 on 3 Nov 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

Format check

Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.

  • Agent Skills specPasses

    The open format from agentskills.io, held to the strictest version of each rule among the agents we check.

    • Note

      The first sentence of the description is 342 characters. Agents shorten long descriptions, so lead with the main job. D8

      Fix: Start with one short sentence that names the job.

    • Note

      There is no license field, so readers can't tell whether they may reuse the skill. O2

      Fix: Add license: with an SPDX name such as MIT or Apache-2.0, or the name of a bundled licence file.

    • Note

      Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: components/abstract/assets/abstract-blueprint-template.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/abstract-patterns.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/ai-flavor-scrub.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/rhetorical-audit.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/title-audit.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md) and 30 more. Anthropic suggests linking every reference file directly from SKILL.md. B4

      Fix: Link each one from SKILL.md and say when to read it.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: components/abstract/guide.md (139 lines), components/abstract/references/rhetorical-audit.md (102 lines), components/abstract/references/venue-conventions.md (107 lines), components/abstract/references/worked-examples.md (194 lines), components/statistics-reporting/guide.md (118 lines) and 2 more. B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • Claude CodePasses

    Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.

    • Note

      The first sentence of the description is 342 characters. Agents shorten long descriptions, so lead with the main job. D8

      Fix: Start with one short sentence that names the job.

    • Note

      Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: components/abstract/assets/abstract-blueprint-template.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/abstract-patterns.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/ai-flavor-scrub.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/rhetorical-audit.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/title-audit.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md) and 30 more. Anthropic suggests linking every reference file directly from SKILL.md. B4

      Fix: Link each one from SKILL.md and say when to read it.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: components/abstract/guide.md (139 lines), components/abstract/references/rhetorical-audit.md (102 lines), components/abstract/references/venue-conventions.md (107 lines), components/abstract/references/worked-examples.md (194 lines), components/statistics-reporting/guide.md (118 lines) and 2 more. B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • Claude apps & API uploadPasses

    Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.

    • Note

      The description is 604 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4

      Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.

    • Note

      Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: components/abstract/assets/abstract-blueprint-template.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/abstract-patterns.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/ai-flavor-scrub.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/rhetorical-audit.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md), components/abstract/references/title-audit.md (linked only from components/abstract/guide.md) and 30 more. Anthropic suggests linking every reference file directly from SKILL.md. B4

      Fix: Link each one from SKILL.md and say when to read it.

    • Note

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: components/abstract/guide.md (139 lines), components/abstract/references/rhetorical-audit.md (102 lines), components/abstract/references/venue-conventions.md (107 lines), components/abstract/references/worked-examples.md (194 lines), components/statistics-reporting/guide.md (118 lines) and 2 more. B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • OpenAI (Codex & API)Passes

    Codex finds SKILL.md by its exact name and needs a description; OpenAI's Skills API checks the frontmatter against the spec and caps uploads.

    • Note

      The first sentence of the description is 342 characters. Agents shorten long descriptions, so lead with the main job. D8

      Fix: Start with one short sentence that names the job.

  • VS Code & CopilotPasses
