What it does

ML Paper Writing is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. Write publication-ready ML/AI/Systems papers for NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, COLM, OSDI, NSDI, ASPLOS, SOSP. Use when drafting papers from research repos, structuring arguments, verifying citations, or preparing camera-ready submissions. Includes LaTeX templates, reviewer guidelines, and citation verification workflows.

Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `references/checklists.md`, `references/citation-workflow.md` and `references/reviewer-guidelines.md`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Citation management, Scientific writing and LaTeX. It works with LaTeX. The repository describes itself as: 🔬 A curated collection of 23,000+ agent skills for empirical research across 8 social science disciplines. | 精选 23,000+ AI Agent 技能库，覆盖8大社会科学学科的实证研究。CoPaper.AI… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Drafting papers from research repos
Structuring arguments
Verifying citations
Preparing camera-ready submissions

Example prompts

“/ml-paper-writing”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Understand the project by exploring the repo, results, and existing documentation
Deliver a complete first draft when confident about the contribution
Search literature using web search and APIs to find relevant citations
Refine through feedback cycles when the scientist provides input
Ask for clarification only when genuinely uncertain about key decisions

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9fa87d8. 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 (its code samples are latex).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
- copaper.ai
- github.com
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

ML Paper Writing loads about 847 tokens when it runs, and up to ~22k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 294 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~847
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them: ~22k

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.

ML Paper Writing for Top AI & Systems Conferences

Expert-level guidance for writing publication-ready papers targeting NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, COLM (ML/AI venues) and OSDI, NSDI, ASPLOS, SOSP (Systems venues). This skill combines writing philosophy from top researchers (Nanda, Farquhar, Karpathy, Lipton, Steinhardt) with practical tools: LaTeX templates, citation verification APIs, and conference checklists.

Core Philosophy: Collaborative Writing

Paper writing is collaborative, but Claude should be proactive in delivering drafts.

The typical workflow starts with a research repository containing code, results, and experimental artifacts. Claude's role is to:

Understand the project by exploring the repo, results, and existing documentation
Deliver a complete first draft when confident about the contribution
Search literature using web search and APIs to find relevant citations
Refine through feedback cycles when the scientist provides input
Ask for clarification only when genuinely uncertain about key decisions

Key Principle: Be proactive. If the repo and results are clear, deliver a full draft. Don't block waiting for feedback on every section—scientists are busy. Produce something concrete they can react to, then iterate based on their response.

⚠️ CRITICAL: Never Hallucinate Citations

This is the most important rule in academic writing with AI assistance.

The Problem

AI-generated citations have a ~40% error rate. Hallucinated references—papers that don't exist, wrong authors, incorrect years, fabricated DOIs—are a serious form of academic misconduct that can result in desk rejection or retraction.

The Rule

NEVER generate BibTeX entries from memory. ALWAYS fetch programmatically.

Action	✅ Correct	❌ Wrong
Adding a citation	Search API → verify → fetch BibTeX	Write BibTeX from memory
Uncertain about a paper	Mark as `[CITATION NEEDED]`	Guess the reference
Can't find exact paper	Note: "placeholder - verify"	Invent similar-sounding paper

When You Can't Verify a Citation

If you cannot programmatically verify a citation, you MUST:

latex

% EXPLICIT PLACEHOLDER - requires human verification

Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use ML Paper Writing in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills --skill ml-paper-writing -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ml-paper-writing, .gemini/skills/ml-paper-writing, .github/skills/ml-paper-writing and .opencode/skills/ml-paper-writing in your project.

What does ML Paper Writing need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: ML Paper Writing is instructions for the agent only.

Does ML Paper Writing access the network?

SKILL.md names 2 domains. As links in the text: copaper.ai and github.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is ML Paper Writing safe to install?
