What it does

Nsdi Supplementary is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when splitting NSDI material across the 12-page body, the appendix pages the CFP allows beyond references, HotCRP auxiliary-material uploads for critical online content, and the one-shot-revision packet — deciding what reviewers must see in-body versus what merely supports it.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

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

  • Splitting NSDI material across the 12-page body
  • The appendix pages the CFP allows beyond references
  • HotCRP auxiliary-material uploads for critical online content
  • The one-shot-revision packet — deciding what reviewers must see in-body versus what merely supports it

Example prompts

  • “/nsdi-supplementary”

Workflow steps

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

  1. a version of the paper highlighting all changes made, and
  2. a high-level explanation of the major changes.

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 (its code samples are bash).

    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

Nsdi Supplementary loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 75 tokens; SKILL.md has 715 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~75
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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.

Use when splitting NSDI material across the 12-page body, the appendix pages the CFP allows beyond references, HotCRP auxiliary-material uploads for critical online content, and the one-shot-revision packet — deciding what reviewers must see in-body versus what merely supports it.

NSDI Supplementary Material

NSDI gives authors four containers with different review status. Misfiling content — a load-bearing baseline in an appendix, revision evidence missing from the auxiliary packet — costs more than any phrasing error. Rules below are the NSDI '27 CFP as rendered on 2026-07-08.

The four containers

Container'27 ruleReview status
Body12 pages incl. footnotes, figures, tablesThe paper; judged in full
Referencesextra pages, no stated capChecked, uncounted
Appendicesextra pages after references permittedAvailable context; assume optional reading (obligation 待核实)
Auxiliary material (HotCRP form)for online content critical to the paper; alternative is contacting the co-chairsConsulted at reviewer discretion; mandatory vehicle for revision packets

Two contrasts worth internalizing. Against sibling venues that ban submission-time appendices outright, NSDI permits them — the trap here is overuse, not existence. And the auxiliary-material slot is not a junk drawer: the CFP frames it for content critical to the paper that lives online, plus the structured revision documents below.

The placement rule

Ask of every artifact of content: would a reviewer who skipped this be unable to judge a claim?

  • Yes → body. Key workload description, baseline identity and tuning, the mechanism a headline number depends on, the failure regimes. If it does not fit, the paper is over-claiming for its budget — cut claims, not their evidence (nsdi-writing-style).
  • Supports but does not carry → appendix. Full parameter tables, additional workload results consistent with in-body trends, protocol message formats, extended proofs of secondary properties.
  • Lives online and matters → auxiliary material, anonymized. A demo, a dataset sample, an interactive visualization. Never a raw GitHub link in the text — repo URLs identify authors (nsdi-submission).

Self-containment is a hard constraint in both directions: the 12 pages must stand alone if every appendix page is ignored, and no appendix may quietly introduce a new claim the body never made.

Appendix design, when used

  • Order appendices by likely reviewer interest; a skeptical reviewer goes to the appendix to check one specific thing, not to read linearly.
  • Give each appendix a one-line pointer from the body ("full per-workload results: App. B") so their existence is discoverable inside the reviewed pages.
  • Regenerate appendix tables from the same run ledger as body figures (nsdi-reproducibility); internal contradictions between body and appendix are a reviewer's fastest route to distrust.
  • Anonymize appendices to the same standard as the body — leaks hide in config listings, hostnames, and dataset paths.

The one-shot revision packet

NSDI's most distinctive supplementary requirement. A resubmitted one-shot revision must include auxiliary material containing:

  1. a version of the paper highlighting all changes made, and
  2. a high-level explanation of the major changes.

Build both as living documents during the revision, not as a deadline-night diff:

bash
# Maintain the highlighted version continuously with latexdiff
latexdiff submitted/main.tex revised/main.tex > diff/main-diff.tex
pdflatex -output-directory diff diff/main-diff.tex
# Change memo skeleton: one block per required issue
#   R2.3 (baseline tuning): re-ran §6.2 with vendor-recommended config;
#   deltas now 2.1-2.9x (was 2.1-3.4x); text + Fig 7 updated. [diff pp. 8-9]

The same reviewers re-read the packet against their issue list; a memo that maps issue → change → diff location does their verification for them. A revision whose packet obscures what changed — or that ignores a required issue — is rejected with no further revision option (nsdi-author-response).

Triage drill for an overfull draft

When the draft runs to 13.5 pages, resist moving the overflow wholesale to an appendix — demote by evidence role:

  1. List every figure/table with the claim it supports; anything supporting no in-body claim leaves the paper entirely.
  2. Secondary workloads whose trend matches the primary: one summarizing sentence in the body + full table in the appendix.
  3. Mechanism details needed to reimplement but not to judge (message formats, tuning constants): appendix.
  4. Anything a skeptical reviewer needs to believe a number: stays in-body, and a claim gets cut instead if space still lacks.

Pre-upload sweep

  • Body stands alone with all appendices deleted.
  • No load-bearing evidence outside the 12 pages.
  • Every appendix pointed to from the body; no orphan claims.
  • Auxiliary uploads anonymized (metadata, paths, owners) and actually critical.
  • Revision packets: highlighted PDF + change memo present, issue-complete.
  • Combined upload sizes within whatever HotCRP enforces this cycle (check the form; caps 待核实).

Cross-container consistency

The containers are read at different times by different people — reviewers now, revision reviewers months later, artifact evaluators after acceptance — so consistency is a supply-chain property: numbers quoted in the body match the appendix tables they summarize; the auxiliary demo shows the same system version the paper measures; and the revision packet's diff derives from the exact PDF the reviewers previously read, not an intermediate draft.

Output format

text
[Placement audit] item -> body / references / appendix / auxiliary (+ moves needed)
[Self-containment] body survives appendix deletion? orphan claims?
[Appendix hygiene] pointers present / regenerated from ledger / anonymized
[Revision packet] highlighted PDF ok? memo maps all required issues?
[Blocking issues] <ordered before upload>
