ieeesp-supplementary
Use when deciding what goes in an IEEE S&P (Oakland) paper's appendix versus the 13-page body, including the 5-page references-and-appendices allowance, the rule that reviewers need not read appendices, marking requirements past page 13, and what must never be relegated out of the reviewed body.

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.
# IEEE S&P Supplementary Material Use this when splitting content between the body and the appendix. S&P's model is stricter than most: there is **no separate supplement upload** in the verified CFPs — everything is one PDF of at most 13 body pages plus at most 5 pages of references and appendices, 18 total, with all content past page 13 clearly marked as appendix and **reviewers explicitly not required to read appendices** (sp2027.ieee-security.org/cfpapers.html, checked 2026-07-08). ## The rule that decides every split If the acceptance case needs it, it lives on pages 1–13. The appendix is for material a *convinced* reviewer might verify, never for material that does the convincing. | Content | Placement | Why | |---|---|---| | Threat model, all of it | Body | The claim is undefined without it | | Adaptive-attack evaluation summary | Body | The defense's acceptance case | | End-to-end exploit walkthrough (one target) | Body | Existence proof of the attack | | Per-target breakdown across 30 targets | Appendix | Verification depth, not persuasion | | Full protocol/proof details | Appendix, with theorem statements in body | Statements are claims; derivations are checks | | Ethics c

What does the ieeesp-supplementary skill do?
Use when deciding what goes in an IEEE S&P (Oakland) paper's appendix versus the 13-page body, including the 5-page references-and-appendices allowance, the rule that reviewers need not read appendices, marking requirements past page 13, and what must never be relegated out of the reviewed body.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ieeesp-supplementary --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 984 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.
