What it does
Ieeesp Writing Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when writing or revising an IEEE S&P (Oakland) paper's prose, including the threat-model-first structure, calibrating security claims to evaluated boundaries, the first-round survival test for introductions, SoK voice, and fitting the argument into 13 compsoc pages.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 Writing & Content, covering Brand voice and tone and Threat modeling. 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.

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
Ieeesp Writing Style loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 548 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.

- Use when writing or revising an IEEE S&P (Oakland) paper's prose, including the threat-model-first structure, calibrating security claims to evaluated boundaries, the first-round survival test for introductions, SoK voice, and fitting the argument into 13 compsoc pages.
IEEE S&P Writing Style
Use this for drafting and revision passes. The controlling constraint is
S&P's round structure: first-round reviewers cut papers without a
rebuttal (ieeesp-review-process), so the paper's first two pages must
survive a professional skeptic reading alone, unaided, and slightly tired.
The first-round survival test
By the end of page 2, a reviewer must be able to answer:
- Who is the adversary? Capabilities, access, and what winning means.
- What is the claim? One sentence, bounded: "we show an attacker with
<access>can<effect>on<target class>, demonstrated on<n>systems." - What is the evidence? The map: which section demonstrates, which measures, which proves.
- Why now / why hard? What made this un-done until this paper.
- Was it done responsibly? One early signal — disclosure initiated, IRB obtained — expanded later.
A draft that spends page 1 on the importance of cybersecurity fails this test; Oakland reviewers assume importance and grade specificity.
Threat model as a load-bearing section
The threat model is not scene-setting — every later claim is evaluated against it:
- State capabilities and non-capabilities ("the attacker cannot observe physical access patterns"); reviewers probe boundaries you leave implicit.
- Justify realism with citations to incidents or measurements, not intuition.
- Keep one threat model. Papers that quietly strengthen the adversary in §5 to make the defense interesting get caught in reviewer discussion.
- For defenses: state the adaptive adversary — one who knows the design — and point to where that adversary is evaluated.
Claim calibration table
| Overclaim | Calibrated form |
|---|---|
| "Our defense stops X attacks" | "blocks all X instances in our corpus (n=…); adaptive variants in §6.3" |
| "The first work to…" | "the first demonstration on production systems of…" (and verify) |
| "Devastating real-world impact" | measured impact + affected-population estimate + fix status |
| "Provably secure" | "secure under <model> against <adversary class> (Thm 2)" |
| "Negligible overhead" | "<n>% median overhead on <workload> (Fig 7)" |
The pattern: every security adjective is replaced by a boundary plus a pointer. This is also rebuttal insurance — calibrated claims leave less for reviewers to dispute.

SoK voice is a different register
An SoK: paper argues a thesis about the literature: the organizing claim
("defenses in this area implicitly assume X, and the assumption fails")
appears on page 1 like any other claim, the taxonomy is the evidence, and
the systematization must earn its verbs — compare, reconcile,
invalidate — not just survey. Per the CFP, value to the community is the
review criterion; a section explicitly stating what practitioners and
researchers should do differently is the strongest close.
Compression for 13 compsoc pages
Two-column IEEE compsoc punishes sprawl. Cuts that preserve the argument, in order:
- Background that a security-generalist PC member already knows (they know what ASLR is; they need your bypass's delta).
- Repeated attack-flow narration — one figure with a numbered walkthrough replaces a page of prose.
- Per-experiment methodology boilerplate — one Evaluation Setup subsection, referenced thereafter.
- Defensive hedging paragraphs — one Limitations subsection beats hedges scattered through every section.
Revision pass, one command per pass:
pass 1: page-2 test — answers to the 5 questions all present? mark gaps
pass 2: grep -n "first\|novel\|significant\|devastating\|completely" body.tex
→ each hit: boundary + pointer, or delete
pass 3: threat-model diff — list every capability §4–§7 assumes;
confirm each appears in §2
pass 4: read only topic sentences aloud — does the argument survive?House conventions worth matching
- Present tense for the system and attack ("the attack proceeds in three stages"); past tense for what you measured.
- Third-person self-citation everywhere in the anonymous version.
- Numbered attack stages and named components; reviewers reference "stage 2" and "the monitor" in discussion — make that easy.
- Figures readable in grayscale at print size; compsoc columns are narrow.
