What it does

Chi Related Work is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when building the related-work section of an ACM CHI paper — covering the HCI venue family and the non-CS disciplines CHI draws on, positioning against the last few CHI cycles, keeping self-citation anonymous — in a venue where insufficient contextualization is the top assisted desk-reject ground.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k 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 Research & Science, covering Literature review and Citation management. 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

  • Building the related-work section of an ACM CHI paper — covering the HCI venue family and the non-CS disciplines CHI draws on
  • Positioning against the last few CHI cycles
  • Keeping self-citation anonymous — in a venue where insufficient contextualization is the top assisted desk-reject ground

Example prompts

  • “/chi-related-work”

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

Chi Related Work loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 602 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~80
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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 building the related-work section of an ACM CHI paper — covering the HCI venue family and the non-CS disciplines CHI draws on, positioning against the last few CHI cycles, keeping self-citation anonymous — in a venue where insufficient contextualization is the top assisted desk-reject ground.

At CHI, related work is screened before it is reviewed: ADR-Context — "grossly insufficient literature review to contextualize the contribution" — was the most frequently cited assisted desk-reject reason at CHI 2026, applied jointly by subcommittee chairs and ACs before external review (chi2026.acm.org outcome posts, read 2026-07-08). A thin or misaimed section no longer just lowers scores; it can end the submission in October.

Five lanes, all checked

LaneWhat belongs thereWho notices its absence
CHI itself, last ~3 cyclesThe ongoing conversation your paper joins1AC/2AC — instantly
The HCI family (CSCW, UIST, DIS, IUI, ASSETS, IMWUT, TOCHI, IJHCS)The specialist thread of your topicThe external recruited from that thread
Foundational HCIThe classic your framing stands on (or contradicts)Senior reviewers
Feeder disciplinesPsychology, sociology, design, communication, health, ML — wherever your constructs come fromThe reviewer trained in that discipline
Domain/application literatureThe practice context you study (education, accessibility, health...)The reviewer who lives in that context

The feeder-discipline lane is CHI-distinctive and the most common hole: a paper measuring "trust" that cites no trust literature outside HCI, or one deploying thematic analysis citing only its HCI users, reads as unserious to exactly the reviewer the subcommittee recruited to check it.

Position, don't inventory

The paragraph unit that survives review states a front — what the cited cluster established, where it stops, and how your work moves it:

Prior deployments of voice assistants with older adults established adoption barriers in home settings [x, y, z], but studied single-user households; multi-resident care contexts, where addressee ambiguity dominates, remain unexamined. We provide the first such deployment.

Three tests per paragraph: it cites ≥2 works in tension or sequence (else it is an annotation), it ends with a gap or relationship claim, and deleting it would weaken the introduction's contribution list. A related-work section whose paragraphs all pass is positioning; anything else is coverage theater — and coverage theater at excessive length also feeds the ADR-Contribution ground (small contribution relative to paper length).

Searching the field properly

The ACM Digital Library (now fully open access since January 2026) is the canonical index for the HCI family; Google Scholar catches the feeder disciplines and preprints.

text
Working queries (adapt per project):
- dl.acm.org: [Title: <construct>] AND [Conference: CHI] — filter to 2022-2026
- dl.acm.org: same construct in TOCHI + CSCW + ASSETS (the thread often lives
  in a sibling, published a year before the CHI wave)
- Scholar: <construct> + the feeder discipline's own term (e.g. "technology
  acceptance" vs "adoption"; "self-efficacy" vs "confidence")
- Forward-citation pass on your 3 closest papers — who cited them in the last
  two cycles is your actual competitive set
- arXiv/OSF preprint sweep for concurrent work; cite-and-distinguish preprints
  rather than pretending the lane is empty

Log the search date. Between September submission and the December 3 resubmission, re-run the sweep — a five-week revision that misses a newly published near-neighbor hands round-2 reviewers a free objection (chi-author-response).

Distinguishing near-neighbors without combat

When a close paper exists (it does), CHI reviewers expect precise, generous differentiation: name the axis of difference — population, setting, method, theoretical lens, system capability — and what your position on that axis newly shows. Dismissive comparisons ("however, they only...") backfire in a community small enough that the neighbor may be your external reviewer.

Self-citation under anonymity

CHI review is anonymized but your prior work is often the nearest neighbor. The standing convention: cite yourself in the third person ("Building on the probe deployed by [12]...") and never write "our previous study." Omitting your own essential prior paper is worse than citing it — reviewers who find it later infer concealment. Anonymize the prose, not the record. Link hygiene (no named repositories in citations) is covered in chi-submission.

Two structural choices that read as competence

  • Placement: background the reader needs before understanding the study can come early (§2); comparisons that only make sense after seeing your findings can legitimately sit in the discussion ("our finding extends [x]'s account..."). CHI accepts both; choosing deliberately signals control.
  • Organization: organize by intellectual front, never by venue or chronology. Section headings like "Trust in automation," "Voice interfaces in shared spaces" do positioning work; "Related work A/B/C" does not.
