What it does
Vldb Author Response is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when a PVLDB paper receives a revision verdict and the response package must be built, covering the one-shot revision rule, the three-month window, reading the reviewers' required-changes list, planning new experiments against the clock, and writing the change document that VLDB reviewers re-evaluate against.
Its SKILL.md is about 960 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.

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
Vldb Author Response loads about 963 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 415 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 a PVLDB paper receives a revision verdict and the response package must be built, covering the one-shot revision rule, the three-month window, reading the reviewers' required-changes list, planning new experiments against the clock, and writing the change document that VLDB reviewers re-evaluate against.
VLDB Author Response
Use this when PVLDB reviews arrive — typically around the 15th of the month after your deadline — and the verdict is revise. PVLDB has no rebuttal phase before decisions: the reviews and the outcome land together, so the author-response genre at this venue is the revision package. You get exactly one revision, and up to three months to deliver it.
Read the verdict as a contract
A PVLDB revision request is written to be specific: reviewers state what the revision must contain. Treat that list as the acceptance test.
- Extract every required item into a numbered ledger before anyone starts editing; ambiguous requirements get a clarifying interpretation written down, not ignored.
- Separate required changes from suggested ones. Required items decide the outcome; suggestions earn goodwill when cheap.
- Estimate honestly whether the heaviest requirement — usually a new experiment or a stronger baseline — fits inside three months on your hardware. If it cannot, decide now between a scoped-down response and a withdrawal, because a failed revision consumes the only attempt.
Budgeting the three months
| Weeks | Activity |
|---|---|
| 1 | Ledger built, requirements interpreted, infeasible items escalated |
| 2-7 | New runs, added baselines, corrected analyses |
| 8-9 | Text integration; every change traceable to a ledger item |
| 10-11 | Change document drafted; internal re-review against the ledger |
| 12 | Buffer for rerun failures; submit early, not at the wire |
The same reviewers return. They remember what they asked for, and they check the ledger items first — new prose that dodges a required experiment is the canonical failed revision.

Writing the change document
- Open with a one-paragraph summary of what changed and where.
- Then answer requirement by requirement: quote the reviewer's ask, state what was done, and point to the exact section, figure, or table in the revised PDF.
- Where results moved against you, say so plainly and interpret the movement. Reviewers at a systems venue respect a measured regression explained; they punish one discovered.
- Do not smuggle in an expanded contribution. The revision is re-reviewed against the original claims plus the required changes — a rewritten paper restarts skepticism instead of resolving it.
Response skeleton
Summary of revision (5-8 lines)
R1.1 [quoted requirement]
Done: <change made>
Where: <section / figure / table>
Note: <result movement, if any>
R2.3 [quoted requirement]
Done / Partially done because <honest constraint>
Where: ...Judgment calls
- A requirement you believe is mistaken still gets an experiment or a careful argument with evidence — never a bare disagreement.
- If two reviewers conflict, satisfy both where possible; otherwise state the conflict explicitly and justify the path chosen.
- Nothing stops you asking the assigned meta-level contact (where the volume provides one) about genuinely uninterpretable requirements early — 待核实 the current escalation channel on the live guidelines.
