What it does

Icml Writing Style is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when rewriting a machine-learning paper for ICML-style claims, 8-page clarity, soundness/originality/significance framing, impact statement, lay-summary readiness, and reviewer-updateable rebuttal posture.

Its SKILL.md is about 410 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 Writing & Content, covering Brand voice and tone and Machine learning. The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.

When your agent uses it

  • Rewriting a machine-learning paper for ICML-style claims
  • Soundness/originality/significance framing
  • Impact statement
  • Lay-summary readiness

Example prompts

  • “/icml-writing-style”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Define the ML problem precisely.
  2. State what prior methods, theory, or evaluations fail to cover.
  3. Give the contribution in a form a reviewer can evaluate: method, theorem, benchmark, empirical
  4. Preview the evidence: proof, ablation, baseline, dataset, or reproducibility artifact.
  5. Bound the claim and point to appendices only for support, not for the main idea.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. 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

Icml Writing Style loads about 410 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 163 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~410

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 163 words (~410 tokens).

“ICML writing has to make a rigorous ML contribution clear inside a tight 8-page body. The style is less about broad excitement and more about soundness, originality, significance, clarity, and reproducibility.”
