What it does
Icde Related Work is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when positioning an IEEE ICDE submission against the database canon and neighboring venues, running a reinvention audit across SIGMOD, VLDB, EDBT, and shipping systems, handling two-round concurrency, distinguishing engineering delta from genuine novelty, and covering both the literature and production systems an ICDE reviewer expects.
Its SKILL.md is about 990 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 Positioning and messaging. 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

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
Icde Related Work loads about 987 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 90 tokens; SKILL.md has 451 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.
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.

- icde-related-work
- description
- Use when positioning an IEEE ICDE submission against the database canon and neighboring venues, running a reinvention audit across SIGMOD, VLDB, EDBT, and shipping systems, handling two-round concurrency, distinguishing engineering delta from genuine novelty, and covering both the literature and production systems an ICDE reviewer expects.
ICDE Related Work
Use this to audit novelty and eligibility. Reopen the current call for the original-work and prior-publication rules before advising authors.
Positioning checks
- Separate genuine novelty (a new mechanism, access method, protocol, or primitive) from engineering delta (a faster implementation of a known idea). ICDE rewards the former; the latter needs an unusually strong evaluation to survive.
- Run a reinvention audit against the deep database canon. Because data management has a fifty-year literature, a "new" index or join often has a 1980s or 1990s ancestor; find it and state the difference, or a reviewer will.
- Cover both the research venues and shipping systems. ICDE reviewers expect you to know the relevant production databases, not just papers; ignoring a system that already does what you claim is a recognizable reject pattern.
- Because ICDE is single-blind, cite your own prior work directly and link repositories freely — there is no anonymity to preserve in the bibliography.
- State overlap with any prior short/workshop version honestly; the original-work rule bars work already published beyond a few double-column pages.
The venue-ring coverage table
| Literature lane | Typical sources | What ICDE reviewers check |
|---|---|---|
| Core database venues | ICDE, SIGMOD, VLDB/PVLDB, EDBT | Whether the nearest system is compared or explicitly distinguished |
| Journals | IEEE TKDE, The VLDB Journal, ACM TODS | Whether the journal-length predecessor of your idea is acknowledged |
| Systems venues | OSDI, SOSP, FAST, ATC | Whether a systems-community mechanism you rebuild is credited |
| Shipping systems | Commercial and open-source databases | Whether a production system already provides your primitive |
A bibliography citing only recent conference papers tells a builder-heavy committee that a known technique may be getting rediscovered — no throughput number repairs that impression.

The concurrency question at ICDE
- ICDE's two-round calendar and the tight ICDE/SIGMOD/VLDB overlap mean genuinely concurrent work is common. For independently concurrent papers, cite neutrally, state the technical difference, and avoid priority claims a reviewer cannot check.
- If a near-identical result appeared at a sibling venue between your rounds, address it head-on rather than hoping the reviewers missed it — they did not.
Positioning vignette
A paper proposes a latch-free variant of a classic index. Its nearest neighbors: the original B-tree literature, a recent SIGMOD lock-free structure, and a production key-value store's internal index. The novelty sentence must name all three contrasts — a new mechanism the classic design lacked, a different hardware assumption from the SIGMOD variant, and a capability the production store does not expose — so the delta is unmistakable.
Overlap judgment calls
- Your own workshop or short-paper version: usually citable, but confirm it stays under the original-work threshold and declare it.
- When unsure whether a prior venue counts as prior publication, declare the overlap in the submission form rather than gambling on a chair's reading.
