What it does

Iros Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when auditing an IROS paper for the PaperPlaza upload — author PINs and metadata, the content-page limit with references counted in, IEEE two-column format, the 2026 double-anonymous rule, the 60-second/10 MB video attachment and its own deadline, dual-submission traps shared with ICRA and RA-L, and return-without-review triggers.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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

  • Auditing an IROS paper for the PaperPlaza upload — author PINs and metadata
  • The content-page limit with references counted in
  • IEEE two-column format
  • The 2026 double-anonymous rule

Example prompts

  • “/iros-submission”

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 Submission loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 88 tokens; SKILL.md has 586 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~88
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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 auditing an IROS paper for the PaperPlaza upload — author PINs and metadata, the content-page limit with references counted in, IEEE two-column format, the 2026 double-anonymous rule, the 60-second/10 MB video attachment and its own deadline, dual-submission traps shared with ICRA and RA-L, and return-without-review triggers.

IROS Submission

Final-gate audit for an IROS conference submission on PaperPlaza (ras.papercept.net), the shared RAS system that also runs ICRA, CASE, and RA-L. Everything here is anchored to the verified IROS 2026 cycle; the numbers move each edition because a new IEEE/RSJ committee resets them, so open the current year-site's call-for-papers page before trusting any value below.

Hard limits (2026-cycle values — reverify each year)

Check2026 ruleConsequence if violated
Page countContent-page limit with references and appendices counted in (2025 anchor: 6 + up to 2 paid)Return without review or an unexpected page charge
FormatIEEE two-column conference template, PDF only, file up to 6 MBCompliance failure at upload
AnonymityDouble-anonymous (2026): no authors/affiliations in the PDF; full list in PaperPlaza metadataAdministrative rejection
Video attachment≤ 60 seconds, ≤ 10 MB, mpg/mpeg/mp4Rejected by the upload form
Video deadlineIts own date, a few days after the paper (2026: March 5)No video on record
Paper deadlinePer the CFP's stated zone — convert, do not assume AoEClosed portal

The tighter video envelope is an IROS signature: where ICRA allows 180 seconds and 20 MB, IROS 2026 allows only 60 seconds and 10 MB, so a video cut for ICRA must be re-edited, not just re-uploaded.

The references-count-inside trap

IROS counts references (and any appendix) within the page budget. Authors arriving from ML venues that advertise "N pages excluding references" routinely overrun. There is no separate supplementary PDF either — so an argument that does not fit the body does not get an appendix to escape into. Budget the bibliography as content from the first outline, not as free space.

The 2026 anonymity posture

IROS carried a long single-blind tradition, but the 2026 cycle presents as double-anonymous. Concretely:

  • Strip the author block, affiliations, and identifying acknowledgements/grant numbers from the PDF; keep the final author list in PaperPlaza metadata (treat it as binding, not a placeholder).
  • Rewrite platform tells: "our previously built XYZ rover [9]" becomes "the XYZ rover [9]" cited in the third person.
  • De-identify figures and the video: institute banners, lab door signs, logo'd safety vests, and building-specific scenery are all leaks.
  • Anonymize links: a code URL carrying a lab organization name is an identity leak; use an anonymized mirror or omit it at review time.
  • Because the policy departs from IROS habit, confirm it still holds for your target year before you de-anonymize or re-anonymize anything.

PaperPlaza mechanics worth knowing early

  • Every co-author needs a PaperPlaza PIN tied to a profile; gathering PINs from a large author list on deadline night is a known time sink — do it the week the site opens.
  • The portal runs its own PDF compliance test (embedded fonts, page size, page count); a failing PDF can be re-uploaded until the deadline, so test days early, not hours early.
  • Keywords come from a fixed RAS taxonomy and steer which Associate Editor and reviewer pool see the paper; pick the two or three closest, not the broadest.
  • The confirmation email is the only receipt — archive it.

Dual-submission and the RA-L boundary

The same manuscript may not be under review at IROS and elsewhere at once. Note the current-cycle shape:

  • IROS 2026 has no combined RA-L+IROS submission option; do not try to submit "to both."
  • The legitimate journal-to-conference route is a published RA-L (or T-RO, T-ASE, RAM) paper transferred for presentation during an eligibility window — a different mechanism from submitting.
  • A preprint on arXiv is generally allowed; confirm the exact wording in the current CFP.

Pre-upload sequence (final 48 hours)

text
1. Rebuild the PDF from a clean clone; confirm the IEEE class file is untouched.
2. Page audit: content + references + appendix all fit the current budget; note any page charge.
3. Anonymity sweep: pdfinfo metadata, acknowledgements, self-citations, figure backgrounds,
   embedded links, and every video frame and caption.
4. Play the 60 s video end to end on a machine without lab codecs; verify duration, size, format.
5. Verify PaperPlaza metadata: authors + PINs, keywords, abstract synced to the PDF.
6. Upload paper and video; pass the compliance check; archive the confirmation email.
