icsme-submission
Use when auditing an IEEE ICSME research-track submission for EasyChair readiness, covering the abstract-then-paper two-step deadline, the IEEEtran two-column 10+2 page budget, double-anonymous review, the open-science data-availability expectation, and desk-reject triage before the AoE cutoff.

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.
# ICSME Submission Run this audit before uploading to the ICSME EasyChair site. ICSME research papers are IEEE conference papers that publish in **IEEE Xplore**, judged in a **single double-anonymous round**. Every number below was read from the ICSME 2026 research-papers call on 2026-07-09 via search renderings of the `conf.researchr.org` and EasyChair URLs (see `resources/official-source-map.md`); treat them as a one-cycle snapshot and reopen the live call first. ## The abstract-then-paper two-step ICSME separates **abstract registration** from **full-paper upload**, and both are AoE: - **Abstract** locks in title, abstract, authors, and topic areas about a week early (ICSME 2026: 27 February 2026). New submissions are not accepted after this; only updates to registered ones. - **Full paper** uploads the anonymized PDF (ICSME 2026: 6 March 2026). Register with the *real* title and abstract, not a placeholder — the abstract drives reviewer bidding on EasyChair, and a registered abstract that diverges from the final paper worsens your PC match and can strand the submission if you miss the abstract cutoff. ## Format and page budget - **IEEE two-column conference proceedings format**

What does the icsme-submission skill do?
Use when auditing an IEEE ICSME research-track submission for EasyChair readiness, covering the abstract-then-paper two-step deadline, the IEEEtran two-column 10+2 page budget, double-anonymous review, the open-science data-availability expectation, and desk-reject triage before the AoE cutoff.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill icsme-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.
