What it does

Icalp Reproducibility is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when making an ICALP (EATCS) theory result independently checkable — writing complete, self-contained proofs in the appendix and a full version (arXiv/ECCC/HAL), pinning any computational steps to reproducible certificates, and (optionally) formalizing key theorems in Coq/Lean/Isabelle, since ICALP has no runnable-artifact track and proof verifiability is the analogue of reproducibility.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 Reproducible research and Academic paper search. It works with arXiv. 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

  • Making an ICALP (EATCS) theory result independently checkable — writing complete
  • Self-contained proofs in the appendix and a full version (arXiv/ECCC/HAL)
  • Pinning any computational steps to reproducible certificates
  • (optionally) formalizing key theorems in Coq/Lean/Isabelle

Example prompts

  • “/icalp-reproducibility”

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

Icalp Reproducibility loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 521 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
~1.3k

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.

Use when making an ICALP (EATCS) theory result independently checkable — writing complete, self-contained proofs in the appendix and a full version (arXiv/ECCC/HAL), pinning any computational steps to reproducible certificates, and (optionally) formalizing key theorems in Coq/Lean/Isabelle, since ICALP has no runnable-artifact track and proof verifiability is the analogue of reproducibility.

ICALP Reproducibility (proof verifiability and the full version)

At a pure-theory venue, "reproducibility" means a referee — and later any reader — can check the proof. ICALP has no artifact-evaluation track and no badges; the deliverable that plays that role is the full version with complete proofs, plus, where relevant, reproducible computational certificates and optional machine formalization. This skill builds that checkability into the paper from the start, because a proof cannot be reconstructed after the fact any more than a lost dataset can.

The full version is the reproducibility story

  • The 15-page body sketches; the full version (a clearly labelled appendix at submission, and an arXiv/ECCC/HAL posting at/after notification) contains every proof in full. This is what makes an ICALP result reproducible: an independent expert can verify it end to end.
  • Write proofs self-contained: state every lemma the argument uses, prove or cite each, and avoid "it is easy to see" for steps that are not. The test is whether a competent non-author can follow it without asking you.
  • Keep the submission appendix and the eventual arXiv version consistent — divergence between "what the referees checked" and "what is public" undermines trust.

Self-contained proof checklist

text
[ ] Every theorem's proof is present in full somewhere the referee can read it
[ ] Every lemma used is stated and proved or cited to a precise source
[ ] No "omitted" / "similarly" hiding a genuinely hard case
[ ] Constants and asymptotics are traceable (no unexplained factor changes mid-proof)
[ ] Definitions precede use; notation is defined once and used consistently
[ ] The dependency structure of lemmas is clear (nothing circular)

Reproducible computation, when a proof uses it

If a proof relies on computation (see icalp-experiments), the computation must be checkable, not merely asserted:

  • Ship code and inputs, or precise pseudocode, in the full version or a referenced public repo.
  • Prefer an independently verifiable certificate (UNSAT proof, LP/Farkas witness, explicit witness object) over "our program confirms it."
  • Pin solver versions and any random seeds so the check is deterministic.

Optional: machine-checked formalization

ICALP does not require formalization, but a Coq/Lean/Isabelle proof of a central theorem is a strong, increasingly valued signal — especially for intricate combinatorial or semantic arguments:

  • Formalize the load-bearing theorem, not the whole paper, and say precisely what is formalized and what is assumed (axioms, unformalized lemmas).
  • Archive the development (a public repo, or Software Heritage / Zenodo for a DOI) and reference it in the camera-ready. Do not let it break anonymity during review.
  • Be honest about the gap between the paper's statement and the formal statement; an over-claimed formalization is worse than none.

What ICALP reproducibility is NOT

  • It is not a runnable-system artifact, a Docker image of an implementation, or a benchmark harness — there is no artifact track and no badge to earn (icalp-artifact-evaluation explains the distinction).
  • It is not "available upon request." A proof that only the authors can complete is, for review purposes, not a proof.
  • It is not satisfied by an arXiv link alone if that version, too, defers the hard steps.

Worked vignette: an intricate lower bound

A Track A conditional lower bound hinges on a delicate gadget construction. To make it reproducible: prove the gadget's properties in full in the appendix (not "by inspection"); include a small computer-checked verification of the gadget's truth table with a shipped, re-runnable script and its output; post an arXiv full version at notification identical in content to the checked appendix; and, optionally, formalize the core combinatorial lemma in Lean and cite the archived development at camera-ready. State clearly which parts are machine-checked.

Output format

text
[Full version] complete proofs present (appendix now, arXiv at notification)? gaps: <where>
[Self-containment] lemmas stated+proved/cited; no hidden hard cases? yes/no
[Computation] certificates / reproducible inputs provided where a proof uses computation? n/a or yes/no
[Formalization] none / partial (what theorem, what assumed) / archived+cited
[Anonymity] full version / repo referenced without breaking the blind during review? yes/no
[Fix queue] <ordered: proof completeness, certificates, formalization scope>
