fast-camera-ready
Use when preparing an accepted USENIX FAST paper for its open-access camera-ready, covering de-anonymization, the USENIX two-column template and the larger camera-ready page allowance, integrating shepherd- or revision-required changes without scope creep, permanentizing trace and code availability, adding the artifact appendix and USENIX badges, and meeting the final-files deadline.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# FAST Camera Ready Use this after acceptance. FAST papers are published **open access by USENIX**, free to the public, so the camera-ready is a production step with no APC and no paywall — but with firm final-files dates (FAST '27 Spring: 28 Jul 2026; Fall: 26 Jan 2027) and USENIX formatting requirements. Reopen the current instructions-for-authors, the decision/shepherd email, and the Call for Artifacts before advising. ## Camera-ready audit - **De-anonymize completely:** restore the author block, affiliations, acknowledgements, funding, and the real system/tool and repository names that double-blind forced you to hide. - **Apply the final format:** the USENIX two-column template within the current camera-ready allowance (reported larger than submission — e.g. 13 pages long / 7 short, references excluded). Use the extra space for shepherd-required additions, not scope creep. - **Integrate the required changes** from the reviews, the shepherd, or the one-shot revision faithfully — without strengthening claims beyond what was evaluated. - **Permanentize availability:** replace every anonymized artifact/trace link with a public, licensed, DOI-issuing archive, and update the availabi

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill fast-camera-ready --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.
