What it does

Sigmetrics Reproducibility is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when strengthening ACM SIGMETRICS reproducibility, covering proofs and their assumptions as reproducible artifacts, seeded simulators whose figures regenerate and match the analysis, measurement/trace provenance, claim-to-evidence mapping, honest degrees of reproducibility, and consistency between what the paper proves/measures and what the artifact contains.

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 Research & Science, covering Reproducible research. 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

  • Strengthening ACM SIGMETRICS reproducibility
  • Covering proofs and their assumptions as reproducible artifacts
  • Seeded simulators whose figures regenerate and match the analysis
  • Measurement/trace provenance

Example prompts

  • “/sigmetrics-reproducibility”

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

Sigmetrics Reproducibility loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 98 tokens; SKILL.md has 536 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~98
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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 strengthening ACM SIGMETRICS reproducibility, covering proofs and their assumptions as reproducible artifacts, seeded simulators whose figures regenerate and match the analysis, measurement/trace provenance, claim-to-evidence mapping, honest degrees of reproducibility, and consistency between what the paper proves/measures and what the artifact contains.

SIGMETRICS Reproducibility

Use this before submission and again before the POMACS camera-ready. SIGMETRICS reproducibility has a distinctive shape: the "artifact" is often a proof plus a simulator plus a trace, not only running code. The goal is that a competent reader could re-derive your bound, re-run your simulation to the same curves, and re-analyze your measurement to the same conclusions.

Evidence map

  • Map each theorem, bound, and reported number to a verifiable location — a proof in an appendix, a figure regenerated from a seeded simulation, or a script that turns the trace into the table.
  • For analytic results, give the full derivation and every assumption; a reader should be able to check the proof and see which assumptions each step uses.
  • For simulations, ship a seeded simulator whose scripts regenerate each figure and overlay the analytic prediction, so a reviewer sees model and measurement agree.
  • For measurement studies, document the trace source, collection window, sanitization, and the processing scripts; archive the processed dataset or document access.
  • Keep the paper and the artifact consistent: a p99 number in the PDF that no simulator run reproduces is the contradiction reviewers read as carelessness.

Reproducibility-claim audit

Claim in the paperWeak reproducibility answerSIGMETRICS-ready answer
"Theorem 1 bounds the tail"Proof sketch onlyFull proof (appendix) + a simulation that matches the analytic curve
"We simulate policy X""Simulator available on request"Seeded simulator + scripts that regenerate each figure from logged runs
"We measured system Y""Data on request"Processed dataset (or documented access) + provenance + processing scripts
"The learner has low regret"Empirical curve onlyRegret proof + code plotting empirical regret against the bound

"Available on request" is treated as not available; convert every such line into a concrete, anonymized artifact or an explicit, justified exception (e.g. a proprietary trace, with the methodology fully documented).

Provenance and determinism pinning

text
[Proof]       state every assumption; give the full derivation; note which lemmas each step needs
[Simulation]  log seeds; state steady-state/warm-up handling; make figures regenerate deterministically
[Measurement] pin the trace source, collection window, sanitization; archive processed data
[Compute]     state hardware, runtime, and number of independent runs so a reader can size a rerun
[Agreement]   ship the overlay of analysis vs. simulation so the match is reproducible, not asserted
Show full SKILL.md (231 more words)Show less

Degrees of reproducibility (state the one you achieved)

  • Turnkey: one documented command regenerates each figure/table from logged simulation runs and reproduces the analytic overlay.
  • Scripted: scripts exist but require documented manual steps or access to a restricted trace.
  • Descriptive: proofs and methodology detailed enough that a competent reader could rebuild the pipeline.

For SIGMETRICS, aim turnkey for anything a reviewer might rerun quickly (a simulation regenerating a figure, a script producing a table); a proprietary industrial trace may stay scripted with access documented, but the methodology and the analysis code should still be turnkey.

Vignette: a queueing-theory-plus-measurement paper

Consider a paper with a scheduling theorem and a trace-driven evaluation. Its reproducibility spine: the full proof with stated assumptions in an appendix; a seeded simulator whose notebook regenerates the analysis-vs-simulation figure; the trace-processing scripts with pinned provenance; the anonymized processed dataset (or documented access to a restricted one); and the analysis notebooks that turn logged runs into the paper's tables — plus one honest sentence about any assumption that only approximately holds and how §6 bounds it.

Consistency and camera-ready pass

  • Before submission: every reported number traces to a proof, a logged simulation run, or a measurement script; the artifact is anonymized (no owner strings, cluster paths, group names).
  • Before camera-ready: swap anonymized links for a permanent, DOI-issuing archive, and align the artifact with any ACM badges you are pursuing (sigmetrics-artifact-evaluation).

Output format
