cscw-related-work
Use when positioning a CSCW paper's related work — engaging the venue's own concept lineage, the PACMHCI-era literature, neighboring HCI venues, and the social sciences CSCW borrows from, with era-correct citations and anonymity-safe self-references for journal-model review.

# CSCW Related Work Related work at CSCW is not a defensive perimeter; it is where the paper joins a forty-year conversation. Reviewers here are unusually likely to *be* the authors of the traditions you cite, to know the concept lineage personally, and — because of Revise and Resubmit — to check in round two whether the engagement you added in round one is real. ## The four literatures to braid | Literature | What reviewers check | Failure smell | | --- | --- | --- | | CSCW's own lineage | That you know the concept history (awareness, articulation work, incentive misalignment, place/space) before renaming a piece of it | "We introduce the novel notion of..." for an idea with a 1992 citation | | Recent PACMHCI-era CSCW work | Engagement with the last ~3-5 years of the venue on your topic | A related-work section whose newest CSCW citation predates the journal era | | Neighboring venues | CHI, ICWSM, GROUP, DIS, and TOCHI work on the same phenomenon, cited by contribution rather than lumped | Treating a CHI interface study and a CSCW practice study as interchangeable | | Source disciplines | The sociology, organization studies, communication, or STS work your framing borrows | Invok

What does the cscw-related-work skill do?

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill cscw-related-work --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
