What it does

Aaai Writing Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when revising an AAAI manuscript for broad-AI-audience fit, a first-page contribution statement legible to non-specialist Phase-1 reviewers, two-column readability, concise novelty claims, reproducibility-checklist alignment, hedged limitations and ethics, and policy-aware framing of AI-system and capability claims.

Its SKILL.md is about 840 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Writing & Content, covering Brand voice and tone, Plain language and style rules and Reproducible research. The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. | 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Revising an AAAI manuscript for broad-AI-audience fit
  • A first-page contribution statement legible to non-specialist Phase-1 reviewers
  • Two-column readability
  • Concise novelty claims

Example prompts

  • “/aaai-writing-style”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Aaai Writing Style loads about 835 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 85 tokens; SKILL.md has 388 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~85
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~835

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Use when revising an AAAI manuscript for broad-AI-audience fit, a first-page contribution statement legible to non-specialist Phase-1 reviewers, two-column readability, concise novelty claims, reproducibility-checklist alignment, hedged limitations and ethics, and policy-aware framing of AI-system and capability claims.

AAAI Writing Style

Use this to make a technically sound draft readable to a broad AI program committee. AAAI rewards clear AI contribution, not only subfield-specific benchmark wins.

AAAI framing

  • State the AI problem, the new capability or insight, and the evidence in the first page.
  • Make clear whether the contribution is method, theory, system, benchmark, dataset, evaluation, human-AI interaction, social impact, or alignment.
  • Explain why the result matters outside a single dataset or implementation.
  • Keep claims aligned with the reproducibility checklist and supplementary evidence.
  • Discuss limitations and ethical considerations when the method affects people, safety, privacy, fairness, security, or social impact.

Two-column readability

  • Use figures and tables as decision aids, not decoration.
  • Keep notation lightweight and define it near first use.
  • Use compact related-work contrasts instead of long literature catalogues.
  • Make the Phase 1 summary easy: problem, method, evidence, limitation, checklist compliance.
  • Avoid unsupported "general intelligence", "human-level", or "safe" claims.

Reading the paper as a Phase-1 reviewer

A non-specialist on AAAI's broad committee gives the first page a few minutes and decides whether the paper is worth deeper reading. Write so that a planning or KR reviewer can summarize your learning contribution, and vice versa. Audit the opening against what that reader needs to extract fast.

First-page questionReviewer extractsFailure symptom

What is newthe single contributiona list, no headline
Why believe itevidence in one line"see Section 6" only
What are the limitsscope and caveatsilence or overclaim
Show full SKILL.md (132 more words)Show less

Phrasing fixes that survive AAAI review

  • Replace "we achieve state of the art" with the specific delta and the setting it holds in.
  • Replace bare "safe" or "human-level" with a measured, scoped statement the evidence supports.
  • Replace a long related-work catalogue with two or three sharp contrasts a non-specialist can follow.
  • Tie every strong claim back to a checklist answer so rigor and prose agree.

Worked vignette

A multi-agent paper opens with three paragraphs of game-theory notation before naming its contribution. A vision reviewer cannot find the AI claim and is likely to stop. The fix rewrites sentence one as the problem, sentence two as the new coordination mechanism, sentence three as the one-line evidence, and a final clause scoping the result to the studied setting, all on page one.

[Contribution type] method / theory / system / benchmark / dataset / evaluation / social impact
[First-page fixes] <problem, method, evidence, limitation>
[Checklist alignment] pass / needs revision
