What it does
Infocom Author Response is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when handling the IEEE INFOCOM post-submission reality — that the venue has traditionally offered no author rebuttal — covering how to write a self-defending submission, how to read and act on an early-reject, what to do after a final reject, and how to use any response window a given cycle does introduce (verify per cycle).
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.
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
- How to read and act on an early-reject
- What to do after a final reject
- How to use any response window a given cycle does introduce (verify per cycle)
Example prompts
- “/infocom-author-response”
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
Infocom Author Response loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 533 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 handling the IEEE INFOCOM post-submission reality — that the venue has traditionally offered no author rebuttal — covering how to write a self-defending submission, how to read and act on an early-reject, what to do after a final reject, and how to use any response window a given cycle does introduce (verify per cycle).
INFOCOM Author Response
Use this after submission, and — more importantly — before it. The distinctive INFOCOM fact is that there is traditionally no author rebuttal: reviewer scores and TPC discussion decide, and you usually never get a turn to reply. So the "author response" that matters most is the one you bake into the PDF. This skill covers the defensive submission, the early-reject checkpoint, the post-reject move, and any actual response window a cycle introduces (待核实 each year).
The response that counts: a self-defending submission
Because you likely cannot reply, answer the reviewer in the paper:
- Pre-empt the top objection per subarea. A theory reviewer will question an assumption — state and justify it in the system model. A systems reviewer will call a baseline unfair — tune it and document the budget. A measurement reviewer will doubt generalization — scope the claim.
- State limits before a reviewer finds them. A short "where this does not hold" paragraph disarms the objection you could not otherwise rebut.
- Make every number checkable. Named simulator, seeds, confidence intervals, and (optionally) released scripts turn "I don't believe this" into "I can verify this."
This is the opposite of a rebuttal-driven venue, where authors sometimes ship a thin submission planning to "fix it in the response." At INFOCOM that plan fails silently.
Reading an early-reject
INFOCOM's early-reject phase (INFOCOM 2027: 9 Oct 2026) cuts papers before full discussion. Treat it as signal:
[Uniform low scores] the paper did not read as INFOCOM-ready to multiple readers -> structural fix
[Scope mismatch] routed to the wrong subarea, or genuinely off-scope -> re-tag or reroute
[Compliance] double-blind or length violation flagged -> mechanical, fixable next cycle
-> there is no appeal; diagnose which of these it was and act, do not relitigateAn early-reject is rarely a near-miss; a paper the reviewers wanted to discuss survives to the full round. Read it as "this needs real work," not "this was unlucky."
After a final reject
- No rebuttal existed to blame — the decision reflects the paper as written. Extract the named weakness from the reviews and fix that, not the phrasing.
- Reroute by shape. A built-system reject may fit SIGCOMM/NSDI with a deployment story; an analytical reject may fit ToN/JSAC with the full-length treatment the page limit forbade; a focused protocol result may fit ICNP.
- Resubmit deliberately. A lightly edited resubmission to the next INFOCOM meets a similar reviewer pool; change something real (a tuned baseline, a proved case, a larger evaluation).

If a cycle introduces a response window (verify first)
Should a given INFOCOM add an author-feedback/rebuttal period (待核实 — do not assume it), apply the discipline of a scarce turn:
| Pushback | What it signals | Response move |
|---|---|---|
| "The baseline is untuned/unfair" | Soundness doubt | Report the re-run with an equal, documented budget, or justify the choice |
| "The assumption is unrealistic" | Modeling-validity doubt | Bound the gap empirically or scope the theorem; do not hand-wave |
| "Doesn't scale beyond a toy topology" | External-validity limit | Point to the largest evaluated size; add one if the format permits |
| "A proof step is unclear" | Rigor doubt | Give the missing step concisely; point to the appendix/report |
Answer only decision-critical, verifiable points; keep it anonymous; do not add claims the reviewers could not check.
Calibration
- Confirm whether a rebuttal exists this cycle before promising anyone a reply — the default is none.
- The PC discussion decides; even where a response window exists, the revised understanding of your existing paper is what moves a score, not new promises.
- Length and format of any response window vary by cycle; confirm the current instructions.
