What it does
Mobicom Writing Style is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when drafting or revising a MobiCom paper for house style — putting the wireless/mobile mechanism and its operating regime on the first page, pairing every claim with over-the-air measurement, replacing superlatives with percentiles and intervals, and fitting the argument into the double-column 12-page body.
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.
It sits in Writing & Content, covering Brand voice and tone. 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
- Revising a MobiCom paper for house style — putting the wireless/mobile mechanism and its operating regime on the first page
- Pairing every claim with over-the-air measurement
- Replacing superlatives with percentiles and intervals
- Fitting the argument into the double-column 12-page body
Example prompts
- “/mobicom-writing-style”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- The wireless/mobile pain — the concrete condition that breaks existing designs
- Why existing mechanisms fall short — each prior approach gets a specific, named
- The mechanism — what is new, stated as a networking/PHY-MAC/routing/sensing
- The measured evidence — the headline result with its condition and its uncertainty,
- Why it matters for mobile networking — the community-level payoff.
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
Mobicom Writing Style loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 534 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 drafting or revising a MobiCom paper for house style — putting the wireless/mobile mechanism and its operating regime on the first page, pairing every claim with over-the-air measurement, replacing superlatives with percentiles and intervals, and fitting the argument into the double-column 12-page body.
MobiCom Writing Style
A MobiCom paper reads as a mechanism justified by measurement. The first page states a wireless or mobile-networking problem, the mechanism that addresses it, and the measured evidence — before any implementation detail. The double-column 12-page body is for the core argument; derivations, protocols, and extra results go to references and appendices.
The first-page arc
Put this in the abstract and first page, in order:
- The wireless/mobile pain — the concrete condition that breaks existing designs (a fade under mobility, interference, a spectrum constraint, an energy limit).
- Why existing mechanisms fall short — each prior approach gets a specific, named failure tied to the condition, not "prior work is limited."
- The mechanism — what is new, stated as a networking/PHY-MAC/routing/sensing mechanism, with its operating regime named (distance, mobility, channel, power).
- The measured evidence — the headline result with its condition and its uncertainty, not a bare "up to N×."
- Why it matters for mobile networking — the community-level payoff.
See ../../resources/worked-examples/01-introduction.md
for a before→after that executes this arc.
Name the operating regime
The single most common wireless-writing failure is a claim with an unstated envelope. Every headline claim carries its regime:
| Vague | MobiCom-calibrated |
|---|---|
| "achieves high throughput" | "sustains X at 1-4 m NLOS under pedestrian mobility" |
| "low power" | "energy-per-bit within the harvested budget at Y% duty cycle" |
| "robust to interference" | "holds delivery above threshold at Z dB co-channel interference" |
| "works in real settings" | "measured over the air in a furnished room with walkers" |
A reviewer cannot fault — or reward — a claim whose conditions are hidden. Stating the regime is not hedging; it is the claim.
Claims are paired with evidence
Every major claim maps to a proof, a figure, a measured condition, or a reproducibility location. Build the map before submitting:
Claim -> evidence pairing (fill for each headline sentence):
"decodable through fades" -> Fig. 3 (delivery vs walker path) + channel traces
"within energy budget" -> Fig. 4 (energy-per-bit) + instrument note (App. B)
"no dedicated carrier" -> system description Sec. 3 + power measurement
An unpaired claim is either cut or demoted to future work.Show full SKILL.md (242 more words)Show less
Percentiles, not superlatives
- Report distributions and confidence intervals, not single best runs or unqualified
maxima. "Up to N×" without the spread behind it is a review risk (
mobicom-experiments). - Prefer the median and a tail over the mean alone when the metric is delivery or latency; wireless distributions are skewed.
- Avoid "significantly" as prose; show the interval and let it speak.
Fitting the double-column 12 pages
- Figures and tables count against the 12; a radio-testbed diagram and three CDFs is
real page budget. Triage content, never geometry (
mobicom-submission). - The body carries the mechanism and its headline evidence; channel-model derivations,
full protocols, extended sweeps, and instrument details go to appendices after the
references, outside the cap (
mobicom-supplementary). - Keep the introduction's roadmap to one or two sentences; over-signposting substitutes for argument.
- Do not put the strongest result only in an appendix — reviewers should not reconstruct the contribution from supplementary material.
Prose discipline
- Lead sections with the finding, then the method — not a chronological lab diary.
- Name the abstraction or mechanism once and use the name consistently.
- Separate engineering effort from research contribution: building a testbed is work, but the contribution is the mechanism it demonstrates.
Revision checklist
- Mechanism and operating regime on the first page.
- Each prior-work line has a specific, named failure.
- Every headline claim paired to a figure, condition, or appendix.
- Distributions/intervals replace superlatives throughout.
- Figures/tables budgeted against the 12 double-column pages.
- Strongest result in the body, not only the appendix.
