What it does
Issta Related Work is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when positioning an ISSTA submission against the testing and analysis literature, covering the sibling venues (ICSE, FSE, ASE, ICST, PLDI, CAV), delta-first framing against the nearest technique, double-anonymous self-citation, distinguishing the closest tool baseline, and avoiding the venue-confusion of citing a paper to the wrong conference.
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, Positioning and messaging and Citation management. 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 ISSTA submission against the testing and analysis literature
- Covering the sibling venues (ICSE
- Delta-first framing against the nearest technique
- Double-anonymous self-citation

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
Issta Related Work loads about 953 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 92 tokens; SKILL.md has 456 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 ISSTA submission against the testing and analysis literature, covering the sibling venues (ICSE, FSE, ASE, ICST, PLDI, CAV), delta-first framing against the nearest technique, double-anonymous self-citation, distinguishing the closest tool baseline, and avoiding the venue-confusion of citing a paper to the wrong conference.
ISSTA Related Work
Use this to audit novelty and positioning. ISSTA reviewers know the testing/analysis literature well, so the job is to name the nearest technique and state the delta, not to survey the field. Reopen the current call for any dual-submission and prior-publication rules before advising authors.
Positioning checks
- Separate a genuine technique or measurement contribution from an engineering improvement: a new bug class found, a new property analyzed, a new evaluation of a technique class, or a sharper-but-cheaper analysis.
- Name the single nearest technique and state the delta in one sentence: what it could not do, what yours does, and at what cost. Reviewers look for the closest competitor first.
- Sweep the right venues. Testing and analysis work is spread across ISSTA and its siblings; missing a paper because it was at FSE or CAV rather than ISSTA reads as not knowing the field.
- Keep self-citations double-anonymous: cite your own prior tool in the third person and do not link to an identity-revealing repository.
- Declare any overlap with a prior workshop or preprint version, and do not put duplicate archival work under review.
Literature lanes for testing and analysis
| Lane | Typical venues | What ISSTA reviewers check |
|---|---|---|
| Software-engineering flagships | ICSE, ESEC/FSE, ASE | Whether the closest SE technique is compared or distinguished |
| Testing-specific venues | ISSTA, ICST, ISSRE | Whether the direct predecessor and its benchmark are used |
| Programming languages / verification | PLDI, POPL, OOPSLA, CAV, TACAS | Whether the analysis's formal neighbours are acknowledged |
| Security testing | S&P, CCS, USENIX Security, NDSS | Whether fuzzing/analysis-for-security work is credited where relevant |
A bibliography that cites only ISSTA papers signals to a reviewer that nearer work at FSE, ASE, or CAV was missed — a recognizable weakness that benchmark strength does not repair.

Delta-first positioning vignette
Suppose the paper proposes a directed fuzzer for a specific bug class. Its nearest neighbours: a coverage-guided fuzzer at a security venue with no directedness, a directed symbolic-execution tool at a PL venue that does not scale, and a prior ISSTA fuzzer for a different bug class. The novelty sentence names all three deltas — directedness the coverage fuzzer lacked, scale the symbolic tool lacked, and a different, harder target than the prior ISSTA fuzzer — rather than a generic "we improve on prior fuzzers."
Venue-attribution discipline
- Before citing a paper as ISSTA, confirm the venue on dblp or the ACM DL; many canonical testing/analysis papers (KLEE at OSDI, EvoSuite at ESEC/FSE, Randoop at ICSE) are not ISSTA, and mis-attributing them signals carelessness.
- For a tool everyone knows by name, cite the paper that introduced it, at its actual venue, not the venue where you first encountered it.
- When unsure whether a venue is archival for dual-submission purposes, declare the overlap in the submission form rather than guessing.
