What it does

Cvpr Writing Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when writing or revising a CVPR paper's prose and figures, covering the 8-page budget where figures and tables count against the limit, the page-1 teaser figure convention, benchmark-table craft, claim calibration for a skeptical vision audience, and taking responsibility for tool-assisted text under CVPR's rules.

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 Business, Finance & HR, covering Brand voice and tone and Performance reviews. 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

  • Covering the 8-page budget where figures and tables count against the limit
  • The page-1 teaser figure convention
  • Benchmark-table craft

Example prompts

  • “/cvpr-writing-style”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Task + failure: the specific visual problem and where current methods break
  2. Cause: the mechanism behind the failure, in one clause — this sentence is what
  3. Method: what you built, named, with its one central idea.
  4. Headline evidence: the scoped number ("+2.1 AP on COCO, matched backbone").
  5. Breadth or cost: second dataset, transfer result, or the efficiency figure.
  6. Availability: what will be released (code/models/data — and remember datasets

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

Cvpr Writing Style loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 85 tokens; SKILL.md has 740 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
~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 writing or revising a CVPR paper's prose and figures, covering the 8-page budget where figures and tables count against the limit, the page-1 teaser figure convention, benchmark-table craft, claim calibration for a skeptical vision audience, and taking responsibility for tool-assisted text under CVPR's rules.

CVPR Writing Style

CVPR is a visual venue with a brutal budget: eight pages including figures and tables (references overflow free — verified 2026 rule). The papers that survive triage by an overloaded reviewer pool are the ones a reader can evaluate in two passes: a 90-second flip through figures and tables, then a real read. Write both passes on purpose.

The two-pass reader

Pass one is visual. Reviewers at a 16k-submission venue flip: Figure 1, the tables, the qualitative grid, the ablation. If that flip communicates problem → idea → win, the close read starts friendly. Concretely:

  • Figure 1 (the teaser) sits on page 1 and must state the paper alone: task, what prior work gets wrong, what yours does instead — ideally on the same input. A teaser that needs the caption's third sentence has failed.
  • Every caption is self-contained: dataset, metric, and the takeaway sentence. Flip readers never see body text.
  • The main table is typeset as an argument: best numbers bold, second-best underlined, methods grouped by supervision/backbone class, your row where the eye lands last.

Budgeting eight inclusive pages

SectionTypical shareCompression lever
Title/abstract/teaser~1 pageTeaser earns its half page or shrinks
Intro~1 pageContributions as 3 bullets, no history lesson
Related work~0.75 pagePosition, don't survey (see cvpr-related-work)
Method + pipeline figure~2 pagesOne figure replacing a page of prose
Experiments~2.5–3 pagesGrids to supplement; keep the decisive ablation
Limitations/conclusion~0.25–0.5 pageHonest and short

Because figures count, figure design is text editing: a two-column pipeline figure costing 0.6 page must delete at least 0.6 page of method prose, or it is negative space. Cut from the flip-reader's perspective — never cut the ablation table to save a paragraph of adjectives.

Sentence-level norms of the genre

  • Present tense, active voice, mechanism first: "We replace the cost volume with …" beats "In recent years, cost volumes have been widely used…".
  • Name the delta in numbers early: "+2.1 AP on COCO with 40% fewer FLOPs" in the abstract, not "significant improvements".
  • One notation table, introduced once; vision papers drown in re-defined symbols.
  • Kill hype adjectives ("novel", "remarkable", "extensive") — at this venue they mark inexperience; the table is the adjective.

Claim calibration

Vision reviewers are professionally allergic to overclaiming, because the field's benchmark culture makes checking easy:

text
Weak claim, strong paper:
  "Ours improves X on datasets A and B under protocol P with backbone Q."
Strong claim, dead paper:
  "Ours solves X"  /  "generalizes to real-world scenes"   (shown on 2 curated clips)
  "state-of-the-art"                      (on one dataset, vs. year-old baselines)
  "real-time"                             (no hardware named — CRF row contradicts you)

Every superlative must name its scope: dataset, protocol, compute class. If a limitation is visible in your own qualitative grid, write it in the limitations paragraph first — reviewers reward the paper that scoops its own weaknesses.

Tool-assisted text is your text

The verified 2026 author-side rule: use whatever tools you like, but fabricated citations and factual inaccuracies are rejection grounds — possibly without review — and "an LLM did it" is explicitly no defense. Operational habit: any machine-drafted paragraph gets a human pass for (a) citations that exist and say what's claimed, (b) numbers matching your own tables, (c) generic filler that flip-readers instantly recognize as padding.

An abstract skeleton that fits the venue

Six sentences carry a CVPR abstract; more usually means the contribution is unclear:

  1. Task + failure: the specific visual problem and where current methods break ("Trackers lose identity during occlusions longer than their temporal horizon").
  2. Cause: the mechanism behind the failure, in one clause — this sentence is what separates insight papers from tweak papers.
  3. Method: what you built, named, with its one central idea.
  4. Headline evidence: the scoped number ("+2.1 AP on COCO, matched backbone").
  5. Breadth or cost: second dataset, transfer result, or the efficiency figure.
  6. Availability: what will be released (code/models/data — and remember datasets claimed as contributions carry a camera-ready release obligation).

Write the abstract twice: once before the experiments as a plan, once after as a report; the diff between the two is your overclaiming audit.

Revision protocol for a drafted paper

  1. Print the figures and tables alone; run the 90-second flip test on a colleague outside the project.
  2. Reconcile abstract numbers against tables (rebuttal-week embarrassment prevention).
  3. Hunt "see supplement" pointers that hide decision-critical logic; pull those back.
  4. Delete the roadmap paragraph ("Section 2 reviews…") — page-limited venues stopped reading them years ago.
  5. Read the intro's last bullet against the conclusion: the promised contribution and the delivered one must be the same sentence.

Reverify each cycle

  • Page cap and the references-only overflow rule.
  • Template/author-kit version (build from the current cvpr-org/author-kit).
  • Any new writing-adjacent form fields (limitations sections, AI-use disclosures — none verified for 2026, 待核实 for later cycles).
