What it does

Naacl Submission is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when a paper aimed at NAACL is about to be uploaded to an ACL Rolling Review cycle — verifying that the chosen cycle can still reach the next NAACL edition, that the PDF passes ARR's format and anonymization gates, and that every declaration on the OpenReview form survives a desk-reject audit.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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 Documents & Office, covering PDF. 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

  • That the PDF passes ARRs format and anonymization gates
  • That every declaration on the OpenReview form survives a desk-reject audit

Example prompts

  • “/naacl-submission”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Reconfirm the live cycle calendar and the NAACL question above.
  2. Rebuild the PDF from the untouched current style files.
  3. Run an anonymization sweep over text, footnotes, metadata, and every
  4. Reconcile each checklist answer against the section it points to.
  5. If resubmitting, write the change summary a skeptical AC would accept.
  6. Upload early enough to fix a rejected PDF before the AoE cutoff.

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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • 2027.naacl.org
    • aclrollingreview.org

    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

Naacl Submission loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 815 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~79
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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.

NAACL Submission

NAACL has no submission portal of its own. What you upload goes to an ACL Rolling Review (ARR) cycle on OpenReview; NAACL enters the picture weeks later, when you commit the finished review package to the conference. This skill audits the upload with that split in mind. The single most NAACL-specific check comes first, because it is the one authors from other venues never think to make.

Check zero: does this cycle reach a NAACL at all?

NAACL is not annual. The chapter historically stands down in years when the main ACL meeting is hosted in the Americas — there was no NAACL 2023 and no NAACL 2026 (ACL 2026 ran in San Diego, July 2-7, 2026). As of 2026-07-08 the next edition is NAACL 2027, whose dates, venue, and feeding ARR cycles were still unannounced (待核实 via https://2027.naacl.org/ and https://aclrollingreview.org/dates). Before polishing anything:

text
1. Open aclrollingreview.org/dates → does any listed cycle name NAACL?
2. If yes  → that cycle's submission date is your real deadline.
3. If no   → your reviewed paper can still wait in ARR and commit later,
             or commit to a sibling venue (EMNLP/EACL/AACL) instead.
4. Record the answer with a date — this table changes without notice.

Historical anchor: NAACL 2025 (Albuquerque, April 29 - May 4, 2025) drew on the ARR October 2024 cycle — ARR upload October 15, 2024; reviews and meta-reviews back December 12, 2024; final versions for Main and Findings due February 8, 2025; all deadlines 11:59 PM UTC-12. Treat those numbers as shape, not schedule.

The gates ARR applies before any human reads the science

GatePassing conditionCost of failure
LengthLong ≤ 8 content pages, short ≤ 4; references and the Limitations section sit outside the countRejected without review
TemplateCurrent *ACL style files, unaltered geometryTreated as a length violation
LimitationsA real Limitations section after the conclusionExplicit desk-reject ground
AnonymityNo names, affiliations, thank-yous, or de-anonymizing links anywhere in PDF or supplementsRejected without review
ChecklistResponsible NLP checklist filed and consistent with the PDFDesk reject for misleading answers
Resubmission linkPrior ARR ID plus a change summary if this work was reviewed beforeDesk reject if omitted

Two subtleties worth spelling out for NAACL-bound work specifically. First, papers on Indigenous or low-resource languages of the Americas often carry community acknowledgements and data-partnership credits — those must come out of the reviewed version and return only at camera-ready. Second, a preprint is allowed at any time under current ARR policy, but the form asks you to declare it; an inaccurate declaration is itself a desk-reject ground, and truthfully declaring "no preprint" buys borderline-case priority you forfeit by posting one mid-cycle.

Form fields that quietly decide your fate

  • Preferred venue. When a cycle feeds more than one conference, the form asks where you intend to commit. Naming NAACL here routes your paper toward the chapter's area-chair pool; it is a signal, not a contract.
  • Reviewing obligations. ARR expects author-side reviewing or nomination; ignoring the field can block the submission outright.
  • Languages studied. Fill it precisely — a NAACL commitment later puts your paper before a community that reads "Spanish, Quechua, English" as substantive information, not metadata.

Supplements at upload time

  • Software and data go in as archives (.zip/.tgz) through the OpenReview fields, not as links to personal cloud storage that can log visitors.
  • Reviewers promise to judge the paper from its content pages alone, so a supplement may deepen evidence but must never complete an argument.
  • Name files blandly (code.zip, data_card.pdf); a lab-convention filename is an anonymity leak the sweep below should catch.

Worked micro-case

A team studying code-switched Spanish-English dialogue plans to submit in July 2026 "for NAACL." The calendar check shows no cycle currently names NAACL 2027. Their real options: enter the next open cycle now and let the reviewed package wait for a NAACL commitment window (reviews stay valid across cycles), target EMNLP/AACL via the May cycle instead, or hold for the cycle NAACL 2027 eventually announces. The audit's job is to force that decision explicitly rather than let a vague "submit to NAACL" drift into a missed conference entirely.

Ordered pre-upload pass

  1. Reconfirm the live cycle calendar and the NAACL question above.
  2. Rebuild the PDF from the untouched current style files.
  3. Run an anonymization sweep over text, footnotes, metadata, and every linked artifact; check supplement archives file by file.
  4. Reconcile each checklist answer against the section it points to.
  5. If resubmitting, write the change summary a skeptical AC would accept.
  6. Upload early enough to fix a rejected PDF before the AoE cutoff.

Mechanical sweeps before the AoE cutoff

  • pdfinfo main.pdf — creator/author metadata fields must be empty or generic; LaTeX toolchains leak usernames here.
  • Search the PDF text for your institution's name, grant numbers, and the string fragments of every author's homepage.
  • Open each supplement archive on a machine that has never touched the project; hidden OS files and absolute paths surface immediately.
  • Recompute the content-page count after the last figure move; page 8.05 is page 9 to a compliance script.
  • Remember the clock: 11:59 PM UTC-12 is later than every timezone in the Americas, which breeds complacency — OpenReview load spikes at the hour are the real risk, not the math.
