What it does

Acl Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when auditing an ACL submission before an ACL Rolling Review cycle deadline, covering long/short paper page budgets, the mandatory Limitations section, Responsible NLP checklist, anonymized PDFs and supplements, preprint declarations, dual-submission rules, resubmission linking, and ARR desk-reject triggers on OpenReview.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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 Documents & Office, covering Natural language processing and Academic paper search. 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

  • Auditing an ACL submission before an ACL Rolling Review cycle deadline
  • Covering long/short paper page budgets
  • The mandatory Limitations section
  • Responsible NLP checklist

Example prompts

  • “/acl-submission”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Link the previous submission ID in the form — omitting it is desk-rejectable.
  2. Attach a summary of changes plus a point-by-point response to every weakness
  3. If the previous meta-review scored 1, a resubmission within six months
  4. Decide whether to request the same reviewers — continuity helps when the

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

Acl Submission loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 804 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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 auditing an ACL submission before an ACL Rolling Review cycle deadline, covering long/short paper page budgets, the mandatory Limitations section, Responsible NLP checklist, anonymized PDFs and supplements, preprint declarations, dual-submission rules, resubmission linking, and ARR desk-reject triggers on OpenReview.

ACL Submission

Run this audit before uploading to an ACL Rolling Review (ARR) cycle on OpenReview. ACL papers are not submitted to the conference directly: they enter an ARR cycle, collect reviews and a meta-review, and are later committed to ACL. Reopen the current ARR CFP at aclrollingreview.org/cfp and the target conference's call before trusting any number below.

Two-step reality check

  • Confirm which ARR cycles feed your target ACL edition. ACL 2026 accepted work from the October 2025 and January 2026 cycles; committing requires a complete review package, so the last eligible cycle is earlier than the conference date suggests.
  • The ARR deadline is the hard one. Commitment is a separate, later form with its own deadline (March 14, 2026 for ACL 2026) — see acl-workflow for the calendar.
  • All ARR deadlines run 11:59 pm UTC-12 (anywhere on Earth).

Format gate

  • Long papers: up to 8 content pages. Short papers: up to 4. Both get unlimited pages for references, plus unlimited space after the conclusion for the required Limitations section and an optional ethics statement.
  • A missing Limitations section or overlength content is an explicit desk-reject condition under the ARR CFP — this is the most common self-inflicted rejection.
  • Use the official ACL LaTeX/Word style files unmodified; margin, font, or spacing tampering is treated as a length violation.
  • Appendices go after references in the same PDF; reviewers are not obliged to read them, so the 8 or 4 content pages must carry the whole argument.

Anonymity gate

  • The submission itself must be fully anonymized: no names, affiliations, acknowledgements, or self-revealing "we previously showed" citations.
  • Since January 2024 there is no anonymity period: you may post a non-anonymous preprint at any time. But you must declare preprint status at submission, and choosing "no non-anonymous preprint" earns award eligibility and priority for borderline decisions — then posting one anyway before meta-review release is a desk-reject offense.
  • Supplementary archives, repo links, and dataset pages must be anonymized too; links to tracked hosting (personal Dropbox/Drive) are disallowed.

Declarations that gate the submission form

Form itemWhat ARR checksFailure mode
Responsible NLP checklistCompleted, consistent with the PDFMisleading answers → desk reject
Resubmission linkPrior ARR submission ID + change summaryUnacknowledged resubmission → desk reject
Preprint declarationMatches what is actually on arXivBroken "no preprint" pledge → desk reject
Dual submissionNot under review anywhere archivalViolation → reject at ARR or venue
AI assistance disclosureChecklist item E answered honestlyUndisclosed generative-AI use → policy breach

Resubmission discipline

ARR is built for revise-and-resubmit across cycles. If this paper was reviewed in an earlier cycle:

  1. Link the previous submission ID in the form — omitting it is desk-rejectable.
  2. Attach a summary of changes plus a point-by-point response to every weakness named in the old reviews.
  3. If the previous meta-review scored 1, a resubmission within six months without wholesale revision can be desk rejected; cosmetic edits waste a cycle.
  4. Decide whether to request the same reviewers — continuity helps when the revision genuinely answers them.

Final-72-hours sequence for an NLP paper

  1. Rebuild the PDF from the untouched style files and re-run the page count on content pages only.
  2. Re-read Limitations: it must be substantive (scope, languages, data, compute), not a ritual paragraph.
  3. Fill the Responsible NLP checklist against the actual PDF — every "yes" needs a section number.
  4. Sweep the supplement archive for author names in paths, notebook metadata, git history, and license headers.
  5. Verify title/abstract on OpenReview match the PDF, and the preprint declaration matches arXiv reality.
  6. Submit hours early; ARR deadlines are AoE but OpenReview outages are not an accepted excuse.

Cycle-choice quick checks

  • Is the target conference actually accepting commitments from this cycle? Each edition names its eligible cycles; a mismatch strands the reviews.
  • Does the team have bandwidth during this cycle's author-response window, roughly five weeks after the deadline?
  • Would waiting one cycle allow the missing experiment that reviews will otherwise demand? A weak first cycle costs more than it saves, because the package follows the paper.
  • Is any co-author's other submission in the same cycle a conflict for reviewer assignment? Register conflicts and profiles before deadline week.

Frequently mishandled cases

  • Short paper padded to eight pages: reviewers rate contribution against format; a four-page idea submitted long scores as thin, not as generous.
  • Appendix used as overflow body: content pages must carry the argument; a method section that says "see Appendix B" for its core mechanism fails the self-containedness expectation.
  • arXiv v2 posted mid-cycle after declaring no preprint: this converts a declaration into a desk-reject liability — update plans, not the preprint.
  • Dataset "available on request": allowed, but checklist answers must then explain reproduction honestly rather than implying release.
  • Same work at a non-archival workshop: usually permitted, but most *ACL workshop proceedings ARE archival — verify the workshop's archival status in writing before assuming.
