icra-submission
Use when auditing an ICRA paper for upload — PaperPlaza account and metadata, the 6-page-plus-2-reference-page limit, IEEE two-column template compliance, the double-anonymous rule introduced in the 2026 cycle, video-attachment specs (180 s, 20 MB), dual-submission conflicts with RA-L, and return-without-review triggers.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# ICRA Submission Final-gate audit for a direct ICRA conference submission on PaperPlaza (`ras.papercept.net`), the RAS submission system used across ICRA, IROS, and RA-L. Everything here is anchored to the verified ICRA 2026 cycle; the numbers move, so open the current year's "call for papers" page before trusting any of them. ## Hard limits (2026-cycle values — reverify each year) | Check | 2026 rule | Consequence if violated | |---|---|---| | Page count at submission | 6 pages of content + up to 2 pages containing only references | Returned without review | | Format | IEEE two-column conference template (RAS PaperPlaza support page templates), PDF only | Compliance failure at upload | | Anonymity | Double-anonymous: no authors/affiliations in the PDF; full author list entered in PaperPlaza metadata | Administrative rejection | | Video attachment | ≤ 180 seconds, ≤ 20 MB, one of mpeg/mp4/mpg | Rejected by the upload form | | Video timing | Only inside the posted windows (2026: Aug 5–Sep 9 and Sep 17–22) | No video on record, no late path | | Deadline | Sep 15, 2025, 23:59 **Pacific** (not AoE) | Closed portal | The Pacific-time detail is a live trap: authors calibrated to AoE dea

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