What it does

Sensys Related Work is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when positioning a SenSys paper against the sensing, embedded, IoT, and on-device-AI literature — sweeping the right venue lanes after the SenSys/IPSN/IoTDI merger, proving each citation's venue via dblp/ACM DL against the MobiCom/NSDI/IPSN traps, distinguishing your mechanism from the nearest prior system, and self-citing blind-safely.

Its SKILL.md is about 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, covering Literature review and Citation management. 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

  • Positioning a SenSys paper against the sensing
  • On-device-AI literature — sweeping the right venue lanes after the SenSys/IPSN/IoTDI merger
  • Proving each citations venue via dblp/ACM DL against the MobiCom/NSDI/IPSN traps
  • Distinguishing your mechanism from the nearest prior system

Example prompts

  • “/sensys-related-work”

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

Sensys Related Work loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 406 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~91
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~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 positioning a SenSys paper against the sensing, embedded, IoT, and on-device-AI literature — sweeping the right venue lanes after the SenSys/IPSN/IoTDI merger, proving each citation's venue via dblp/ACM DL against the MobiCom/NSDI/IPSN traps, distinguishing your mechanism from the nearest prior system, and self-citing blind-safely.

A SenSys related-work section has one job: show that you know the closest prior systems and can name, precisely, what your mechanism does that theirs does not. Vague "prior work is limited" draws blood at a systems venue where reviewers built that prior work. The 2026 merger widened the lanes you must sweep — IPSN and IoTDI literature is now sibling canon, not a separate world.

Sweep the right lanes

After the merger, a thorough sweep covers more ground than a pre-2026 SenSys paper did:

LaneWhere it livesWhat to look for
Low-power networked sensingSenSys, IPSN (pre-2026)The primitive/service your mechanism competes with
IoT design & deploymentSenSys, IoTDI (pre-2026)Deployment methodology and system architecture priors
On-device / embedded AISenSys, TinyML venues, embedded-ML tracksFootprint/latency baselines on real MCUs
Mobile & wireless systemsMobiCom, MobiSysAdjacent mechanisms you must distinguish from, not claim
Sensing algorithms / DSPSignal-processing venuesThe math you build on but do not re-derive

Prove the venue before you cite it

The sensing canon is the most-misfiled literature in systems. Directed diffusion is MobiCom, not SenSys; Glossy is IPSN; TinyDB's core is OSDI/SIGMOD. Getting a venue wrong in related work signals you do not know the field. Verify every load-bearing citation:

text
For each key citation:
  1. Look it up on dblp (dblp.org) — read the venue key: conf/sensys? conf/ipsn? conf/mobicom?
  2. Cross-check the ACM DL / proceedings for year and edition.
  3. Record venue + year; if a rendering is unavailable, mark 待核实 — do NOT guess.

Post-merger nuance: a paper's community may now be part of SenSys, but its historical venue is unchanged. A 2011 IPSN paper is still cited as IPSN 2011, even though IPSN merged into SenSys in 2026. Do not retroactively relabel.

Distinguish from the closest system, concretely

The paragraph that matters most contrasts you with the single nearest prior system. Make it mechanism-level and, where possible, measurable:

text
Weak:   "Unlike prior work, our system is more efficient."
Strong: "CTP-style collection assumes a persistent radio; our node duty-cycles the radio to a
         1% budget and recovers routing state from non-volatile memory after each sleep, trading
         a stated latency increase for a measured order-of-magnitude energy reduction (§4.2)."

The strong version names the prior mechanism, the specific difference, and the trade-off with a pointer — exactly what a systems reviewer checks (sensys-writing-style).

Self-cite without breaking blind

Double-blind still applies to related work:

  • Cite your own prior papers in the third person ("Prior work [12] showed...", never "our earlier work [12]").
  • Do not drop a relevant citation to preserve anonymity — omission is itself a signal and hurts the positioning.
  • Keep any comparison to your own unpublished/concurrent work blind and factual.

Position, do not inflate

A SenSys reviewer distrusts a related-work section that makes every prior system sound broken. Credit what prior systems got right, then carve the specific gap you fill. A paper that respects its lineage and names one crisp delta is more credible than one that claims to obsolete the field.

Output format
