icde-camera-ready
Use when preparing an accepted IEEE ICDE paper for camera-ready and IEEE Xplore publication: IEEE eCopyright and PDF-eXpress validation, the IEEE double-column final format, integrating required changes without scope creep, final artifact release, registration and presentation, and the TKDE extended-version invitation.

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.
# ICDE Camera Ready Use this after acceptance. Reopen the current edition's camera-ready instructions, the IEEE author kit, the registration page, and the decision email before advising authors; IEEE publication mechanics are exacting and edition-specific. ## Camera-ready audit - Produce the **IEEE Xplore-compliant** final PDF: run the source through **IEEE PDF-eXpress** (or the current edition's validator) so fonts are embedded and the file passes Xplore checks. - Complete the **IEEE eCopyright** form; the copyright notice line must appear on the first page exactly as IEEE specifies. - Apply the final **page limit and IEEE double-column template** without margin or font edits; confirm the limit for this edition rather than assuming last year's. - Because ICDE is **single-blind**, there is **no de-anonymization step** — author names were already on the paper. Do confirm the author list, order, and affiliations are final and correct for the permanent Xplore record. - Integrate the reviewer- and area-chair-required changes precisely, without strengthening the contribution into something the reviewers never evaluated. - Release the **final artifact**: the public, licensed repository a

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