What it does

Neurips Workflow is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when planning and sequencing a full NeurIPS manuscript workflow from topic and track selection through writing, the mandatory Paper Checklist, OpenReview submission, double-blind review, author response, decision, camera-ready, artifact release, and rerouting to the Datasets & Benchmarks track, a workshop, or MLRC/TMLR.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k 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. 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

  • Planning and sequencing a full NeurIPS manuscript workflow from topic and track selection through writing
  • The mandatory Paper Checklist
  • OpenReview submission
  • Double-blind review

Example prompts

  • “/neurips-workflow”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Topic and track fit: use neurips-topic-selection.
  2. Paper shaping: use neurips-writing-style, neurips-related-work, and neurips-experiments.
  3. Artifact and supplement planning: use neurips-artifact-evaluation, neurips-reproducibility,
  4. Final pre-submission audit: use neurips-submission.
  5. Review diagnosis: use neurips-review-process.
  6. Rebuttal and discussion: use neurips-author-response.
  7. Acceptance and public release: use neurips-camera-ready.

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

Neurips Workflow loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 474 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
~1.1k

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 planning and sequencing a full NeurIPS manuscript workflow from topic and track selection through writing, the mandatory Paper Checklist, OpenReview submission, double-blind review, author response, decision, camera-ready, artifact release, and rerouting to the Datasets & Benchmarks track, a workshop, or MLRC/TMLR.

NeurIPS Workflow

Use this skill as the router for the NeurIPS depth pack. It helps choose the next skill and stage the work so a manuscript does not arrive at submission with hidden policy or evidence gaps.

NeurIPS is a conference, not a journal: it has no standing editor-in-chief and no article-processing charge. The rotating leadership is the per-edition General Chairs and Program Chairs (2026 General Chairs: Hsuan-Tien Lin and Razvan Pascanu, verified 2026-06-22), and the cost model is registration fees, not APCs — proceedings are open-access on OpenReview. Conference organizers rotate yearly, so re-check the current CFP and committees page rather than carrying a name forward.

Stage map

  1. Topic and track fit: use neurips-topic-selection.
  2. Paper shaping: use neurips-writing-style, neurips-related-work, and neurips-experiments.
  3. Artifact and supplement planning: use neurips-artifact-evaluation, neurips-reproducibility, and neurips-supplementary.
  4. Final pre-submission audit: use neurips-submission.
  5. Review diagnosis: use neurips-review-process.
  6. Rebuttal and discussion: use neurips-author-response.
  7. Acceptance and public release: use neurips-camera-ready.

Operating principles

  • Start official-source checks early; NeurIPS annual policies change.
  • Keep track choice explicit. A main-track method paper, E&D paper, position paper, and MLRC paper are not interchangeable.
  • Write the checklist in parallel with the paper rather than at the end.
  • Maintain one evidence table mapping every central claim to proof, experiment, data, artifact, and limitation.
  • Keep an anonymous review artifact and a de-anonymized public release artifact as separate states.

Deadline ladder to schedule backward from

NeurIPS spreads its gates across the year, so plan backward from the abstract deadline, not the full-paper deadline. The exact dates move every cycle; reopen the current CFP and Main Track Handbook for the live calendar.

OpenReview profilesevery author needs an active, complete profileneurips-submission
Abstract deadlinetitle, abstract, and author list freeze (order may change after)neurips-topic-selection, neurips-related-work

Decisionaccept (spotlight/poster) or rejectneurips-camera-ready if accepted

Track-fork early warning

Decide the track before drafting, because the Datasets & Benchmarks track, Position Papers track, and MLRC/TMLR reproducibility route each have a distinct call, checklist emphasis, and review rubric. A dataset paper forced into the main track, or a reproduction study that belongs in MLRC, wastes a full cycle. If neurips-topic-selection flags a fork, resolve it before any other stage.

Worked vignette: where this router intervenes

A team has strong benchmark wins for a new retrieval method but no mechanism analysis and a thin limitations paragraph. The router routes them to neurips-experiments (add ablations and error analysis) and neurips-writing-style (calibrate the claim and the limitations) before neurips-submission, rather than letting a leaderboard-only paper reach OpenReview where reviewers predictably ask for the missing mechanism.
