What it does

Dac Artifact Evaluation is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when packaging the code, benchmarks, and flows behind an ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC) Research Manuscript into a credible, reusable artifact — given that DAC has historically run no formal artifact-evaluation or badge-issuing track (verify per cycle), so the goal is reviewer credibility and community reuse via open EDA flows and DOI-archived releases, not an ACM badge.

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.

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

  • Packaging the code
  • Flows behind an ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC) Research Manuscript into a credible
  • Reusable artifact — given that DAC has historically run no formal artifact-evaluation
  • Badge-issuing track (verify per cycle)

Example prompts

  • “/dac-artifact-evaluation”

Requirements

  • Docker

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

Dac Artifact Evaluation loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 511 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~104
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 packaging the code, benchmarks, and flows behind an ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC) Research Manuscript into a credible, reusable artifact — given that DAC has historically run no formal artifact-evaluation or badge-issuing track (verify per cycle), so the goal is reviewer credibility and community reuse via open EDA flows and DOI-archived releases, not an ACM badge.

DAC Artifact Evaluation

Read the venue reality first. Unlike the software-engineering venues (FSE/ICSE/ISSTA) and the computer-architecture venues (MICRO/ISCA/HPCA), DAC has historically not operated a standing, badge-issuing artifact-evaluation track for research manuscripts; whether the current cycle adds one is 待核实 (resources/official-source-map.md). So do not build for an ACM badge that DAC does not award. Build instead for the two things that actually matter at DAC: making a skeptical reviewer trust your QoR numbers and making the community able to reuse and cite your work.

What an EDA artifact is for at DAC

GoalWhat it buys youHow it is earned
Reviewer credibilityA QoR claim that reads as real, not cherry-pickedStandard benchmarks, disclosed flow, a runnable path
Community reuseCitations and follow-on work built on your toolClean open-source release, good docs, a license
Contest/leaderboard standingRecognition on ISPD/TAU/CAD-contest tasksA tool that runs on the contest harness

There is no badge to chase, so the design target is a package a stranger can run and a reviewer would believe — not a checklist an evaluator scores.

Packaging plan for an EDA artifact

text
[Flow]        pin the toolchain: OpenROAD / ABC / Yosys / KLayout versions, or a Docker image;
              avoid "install these commercial tools yourself" as the only path
[Benchmarks]  ship or clearly reference the exact benchmark release (ISPD/EPFL/ISCAS/ITC/TAU/
              CircuitNet) with its version
[PDK/library] include the open PDK/library used (Nangate/ASAP7) or document the NDA-gated one
[README]      what it is; how to install; how to run one small demo in minutes; how to reproduce
              each headline QoR number; expected runtime and outputs
[Mapping]     an explicit table: paper claim -> script + benchmark -> expected QoR result
[Seeds]       fixed seeds and a note on nondeterminism for stochastic/RL flows
[License]     an OSI-approved license so others can build on it
[Archive]     deposit a versioned release in a DOI-issuing archive (Zenodo/Software Heritage) after
              acceptance for a stable citation

The clean-machine, bounded-time test

Even without formal evaluators, assume a reviewer or a future user gives your package a short, bounded try on a clean machine. Design the first ten minutes to succeed:

  • A one-command small demo that runs a tiny circuit through your tool and prints a recognizable QoR number.
  • No dependency on the authors' cluster, private PDK, or a live license server for the demo path.
  • A clear separation between the fast demo and the slow full-benchmark reproduction (which may take hours on large designs — say so).

Anonymized review artifact vs public release

  • At submission (double-blind): if you link the artifact for reviewers, anonymize it exactly like the paper — no author/lab names, no personal repos, no cluster paths, no commercial-flow fingerprints. Reviewers are not required to open it, so it can only strengthen a paper that already stands on six pages.
  • After acceptance: replace anonymized placeholders with the public, licensed, DOI-archived release cited in the camera-ready; this is the version the community reuses.

Worked vignette: packaging a placement tool + benchmarks

A paper contributes an ML-guided placer evaluated on ISPD circuits. A credible, reusable package: a Docker image with the placer and an OpenROAD flow pre-built; a run_demo.sh that places one small ISPD circuit and reports wirelength/DRC in under a minute; a reproduce/ directory whose scripts regenerate each per-benchmark table with fixed seeds; a claim-to-script-to-benchmark mapping in the README; the exact ISPD release and an open PDK; the trained model checkpoint and the train/test design split; and an MIT/Apache license. State plainly which numbers are turnkey and which need the slow full-suite run on a large machine.

Calibration

  • Do not assume a DAC artifact badge exists; verify the current cycle before promising one.
  • If DAC or a co-located workshop does introduce an artifact/open-source track in a given year, re-read its specific rules — do not assume ACM SIGSOFT-style badge names transfer.
  • The payoff is credibility and citations; budget the artifact accordingly, not as a graded deliverable.

Output format

[Artifact goal]   reviewer credibility / community reuse / contest harness
[Contents]        tool + flow versions / benchmarks + version / PDK / model + split / license

[Claim mapping]   claim -> script -> benchmark -> expected QoR present? yes/no
[Anon vs public]  anonymized review artifact / DOI-archived public release planned? yes/no
[Badge check]     does this cycle actually run an artifact track? verify -> yes/no/待核实
