Eurosys Writing Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when drafting or revising EuroSys prose — building the problem-to-mechanism arc systems reviewers expect, budgeting the 12 technical pages across design and evaluation, writing figure-first evaluation sections, keeping claims measurement-scoped, and maintaining double-blind voice in the acmart sigplan format.
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 Business, Finance & HR, covering Brand voice and tone and Budgeting and forecasting. 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.
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
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.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Eurosys Writing Style loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 637 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

.claude/skills/eurosys-writing-style/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).Use this on the manuscript itself. A EuroSys paper succeeds when a broad
systems PC — kernel people, distributed-systems people, cloud and security
people — can each extract the same mechanism and believe the same numbers
within one reading. The two-column acmart[sigplan] format and the 12-page
technical budget (EuroSys 2027 CFP, rendered 2026-07-08) reward density that
stays legible, not compression that hides.
A reader who stops after page one should be able to state your insight in a
sentence. If the insight sentence does not exist, the problem is the research
framing, not the writing (route to eurosys-topic-selection).
| Section | Share of 12 pages | Failure mode when misallocated |
|---|---|---|
| Intro + motivation | ~2 | Motivation essay crowds out the design |
| Design + implementation | ~4.5 | Mechanism described by metaphor, not by structure |
| Evaluation | ~4 | Result dump with no questions being answered |
| Related work + discussion | ~1.5 | Either a stub or a survey; both read badly |
References are free pages at EuroSys — cite generously and spend zero technical pages on bibliography anxiety.
Open with the questions, then answer them in order:
§6 Evaluation. We answer four questions:
Q1 Does <system> improve end-to-end <metric> on realistic workloads? (§6.2)
Q2 Where does the gain come from? (§6.3, component breakdown)
Q3 What does it cost — memory, CPU, complexity? (§6.4)
Q4 When does it lose? (§6.5, adversarial and edge workloads)Q4 is the EuroSys credibility section: a paper that measures its own worst case defuses the reviewer whose job is to find it.
| Draft reflex | EuroSys register |
|---|---|
| "X is a critical challenge in modern datacenters" | Open with the measured symptom, not the genre claim |
| "significantly reduces latency" | "reduces p99 by 38% on trace T at 85% load" |
| "our novel approach" | Name the mechanism; novelty is the reviewer's verdict |
| "due to space constraints, details are omitted" | Point to the artifact or cut the claim |
| "we believe this generalizes" | State the condition under which it generalizes, or drop it |
| "as shown in Figure 6" (alone) | "...which isolates the planner's contribution (Fig. 6)" |

A skill your agent uses when drafting or revising EuroSys prose — building the problem-to-mechanism arc systems reviewers expect, budgeting the 12 technical pages across design and evaluation…. Eurosys Writing Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when drafting or revising EuroSys prose — building the problem-to-mechanism arc systems reviewers expect, budgeting the 12 technical pages across design and evaluation, writing figure-first evaluation sections, keeping claims measurement-scoped, and maintaining double-blind voice in the acmart sigplan format.
Eurosys Writing Style fits situations like: revising EuroSys prose — building the problem-to-mechanism arc systems reviewers expect; budgeting the 12 technical pages across design and evaluation; writing figure-first evaluation sections; keeping claims measurement-scoped.
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill eurosys-writing-style -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (EuroSys-Skills/skills/eurosys-writing-style in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .claude/skills/eurosys-writing-style in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill eurosys-writing-style -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (EuroSys-Skills/skills/eurosys-writing-style in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .agents/skills/eurosys-writing-style in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill eurosys-writing-style -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/eurosys-writing-style, .gemini/skills/eurosys-writing-style, .github/skills/eurosys-writing-style and .opencode/skills/eurosys-writing-style in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Eurosys Writing Style is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Eurosys Writing Style is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.4k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 5.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
