Icse Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when auditing an ICSE research-track submission for HotCRP readiness, covering the mandatory abstract deadline, the 10-page-plus-2-reference-page IEEE format, double-anonymous rules, the open-science Data Availability section, supplementary uploads, and desk-reject triage before the AoE cutoff.
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 Research & Science, covering Reproducible research. 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.
6 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.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pdftotextFrom 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.
Icse Submission loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 784 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.

call states that spacing/font alterations can mean desk rejection without review.icse2027.hotcrp.com, one HotCRP instance per track.ICSE reviews double-anonymously: the submission may not reveal author identity, and your own prior work is cited in the third person. Because SE papers lean on tools and repositories, the leak surface is wider than the author block:
# Mechanical pass on the submission PDF and any supplementary archive
pdfinfo paper.pdf | grep -Ei 'author|creator|producer'
pdftotext paper.pdf - | grep -nEi 'github\.com/[a-z0-9-]+|gitlab|zenodo\.org/record|acknowledg|grant' | head
unzip -l supplement.zip | grep -Ei '\.git/|\.DS_Store|/home/|/Users/' | head
grep -rn "university\|@.*\.edu" supplement/ --include='*.md' | headThe SE-specific leaks: a tool named after your lab, screenshots showing a username, a replication link pointing at a personal GitHub, commit metadata inside a zipped repository, and issue-tracker URLs in the evaluation section. Re-host artifacts behind an anonymizing service before upload, not after.
The research track is governed by the ICSE Open Science policy: sharing is the expected default, and non-sharing is what needs justification. Concretely for the submission:
| Finding at audit time | Severity | Real fix |
|---|---|---|
| Main text spills to page 11 | Desk-reject-grade | Cut content or move it to the artifact; the 2 extra pages are references-only |
| Template tampering (margins, 9.5pt body) | Explicitly named desk-reject ground | Recompile clean; recover space editorially |
| Identity leak in PDF or supplement | Anonymity violation | Re-anonymize and re-host; check PDF metadata too |
| Abstract not registered by June 23 | No submission slot exists | Nothing fixes this after AoE — calendar it now |
| No availability statement, no artifact | Scored against verifiability | Add Data Availability section + anonymized package |
| Same study under review elsewhere | Dual-submission exposure | Withdraw one venue first; verify the current policy wording |
HotCRP topic selections drive which PC members bid on you. Choose topics that match your evidence, not your ambitions: a paper tagged "machine learning for SE" plus "human factors" gets one reviewer from each pool, and the mismatched one writes the low score. Declare conflicts for every coauthor's institution and recent collaborators; ICSE PCs are large, and an undeclared conflict found later is a chair-level problem.
Three template failures recur in SE submissions specifically: bibliography
styles that silently exceed the reference pages when dblp entries carry long
venue strings (abbreviate via the .bib, not by shrinking the font);
listings/minted code blocks whose captured line widths overflow the
column and get "fixed" with negative \hspace — a tampering signal; and
figures exported from dashboards at screen resolution that balloon the PDF
and blur in print. Budget a compile-and-print test on the true template a
week out, because each of these costs hours exactly when you have none.

Icse Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when auditing an ICSE research-track submission for HotCRP readiness, covering the mandatory abstract deadline, the 10-page-plus-2-reference-page IEEE format, double-anonymous rules, the open-science Data Availability section, supplementary uploads, and desk-reject triage before the AoE cutoff.
Icse Submission fits situations like: auditing an ICSE research-track submission for HotCRP readiness; covering the mandatory abstract deadline; the 10-page-plus-2-reference-page IEEE format; double-anonymous rules.
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill icse-submission -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (ICSE-Skills/skills/icse-submission in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .claude/skills/icse-submission in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill icse-submission -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (ICSE-Skills/skills/icse-submission in brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills) into .agents/skills/icse-submission 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 icse-submission -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/icse-submission, .gemini/skills/icse-submission, .github/skills/icse-submission and .opencode/skills/icse-submission in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Icse Submission needs the command-line tools its instructions call (pdftotext).
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.
Icse Submission is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.6k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6.5k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Icse Submission: Peer Review (K-Dense-AI/claude-scientific-writer, 2.4k stars), CHARLS Paper Reproduction Guide (xjtulyc/MedgeClaw, 617 stars), Compute Environment Setup (aipoch/open-science, 5.5k stars) and Figure Style (aipoch/open-science, 5.5k stars).
