What it does
Iros Related Work is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when positioning an IROS submission against robotics-systems literature across ICRA, IROS, RSS, CoRL, RA-L, and T-RO, covering the lanes embodied-systems reviewers check, concurrent arXiv work, prior-version overlap, IEEE Xplore archival status, and keeping self-citations anonymous under the double-anonymous cycle.
Its SKILL.md is about 950 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, Academic paper search and Positioning and messaging. 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
- Positioning an IROS submission against robotics-systems literature across ICRA
- Covering the lanes embodied-systems reviewers check
- Concurrent arXiv work
- Prior-version overlap
Example prompts
- “/iros-related-work”
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
Iros Related Work loads about 948 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 85 tokens; SKILL.md has 423 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.

- description
- Use when positioning an IROS submission against robotics-systems literature across ICRA, IROS, RSS, CoRL, RA-L, and T-RO, covering the lanes embodied-systems reviewers check, concurrent arXiv work, prior-version overlap, IEEE Xplore archival status, and keeping self-citations anonymous under the double-anonymous cycle.
IROS Related Work
Use this to audit novelty and eligibility. Reopen the current CFP for dual-submission, anonymity, and prior-publication rules before advising authors. At IROS the question a reviewer asks is not only "is this new?" but "does the paper know the nearest systems it resembles and say what it does differently?"
Positioning checks
- Separate a systems contribution from a component tweak: a new integration, a new capability under a constraint, a new reliability level, or a deployment insight — not merely a swapped module.
- Cover the robotics-systems lanes, not just the one nearest your method; a manipulation paper still owes the perception and planning neighbors it builds on.
- Treat IEEE Xplore proceedings, RA-L, and T-RO as archival; position against them honestly rather than around them.
- Cite arXiv and prior workshop versions so double-anonymous review survives — never point a reviewer to an identity-revealing page or repository.
- Explain overlap with any prior or concurrent version of your own work, and do not submit duplicate archival material.
The lanes robotics reviewers check
| Lane | Typical sources | What IROS reviewers check |
|---|---|---|
| Conference systems | ICRA, prior IROS, RSS, CoRL | Whether the nearest deployed system is compared or explicitly distinguished |
| Robotics journals | RA-L, T-RO, T-ASE, IJRR, Autonomous Robots | Whether mature, revised results are acknowledged, not dodged |
| Perception/learning | CVPR/ICCV, NeurIPS/ICML when a component derives from them | Whether a borrowed component is credited and evaluated in the robotics setting |
| Field/application | Domain venues (field robotics, medical, aerial) | Whether deployment realities and prior fielded systems are cited |
A bibliography citing only your own subfield tells a reviewer the paper may be re-deriving a neighboring system's idea — a recognizable IROS weakness no amount of demo polish repairs.

Concurrent-work judgment calls
- Independently concurrent arXiv work: cite neutrally, state the technical difference, and avoid priority claims a reviewer cannot verify.
- Your own workshop version: usually non-archival and citable, but verify against the current CFP and phrase the citation so anonymity holds.
- When unsure whether a venue counts as archival for dual-submission, declare the overlap in the submission form rather than gambling on an editor's read.
Positioning vignette
Imagine the paper presents a lidar-inertial state estimator that runs on an embedded computer. Its nearest neighbors: a prior IROS lidar-odometry system it extends, an RA-L fusion method with a heavier compute footprint, and a CVPR learned-odometry component it borrows a front end from. The novelty sentence should name all three contrasts — tighter fusion than the IROS predecessor, a smaller compute budget than the RA-L method, and the learned front end credited and re-evaluated on real field data.
Novelty sentence template:
"Unlike <nearest system> which <limitation>, our system <capability>
under <embodiment constraint>, evidenced by <embodied result>."Output format
[Eligibility] clear / needs declaration / risky
[Closest lanes] <conference/journal/perception/field>
[Nearest 3 systems] <system -> distinction>
