imc-workflow
Use when planning an ACM IMC campaign end to end, covering the choice between the two annual deadlines, backward planning from the target cutoff, the registration step, the One-Shot-Revision path across deadlines, availability shepherding, the camera-ready and dataset release, and the Replicability Track calendar.

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.
# IMC Workflow Use this to plan an IMC campaign against the calendar. IMC runs **two submission deadlines a year** with a shared review pipeline and a **One-Shot-Revision** path that resubmits to the next deadline. Planning backward from the right deadline — and reserving time for ethics approvals and dataset release that cannot be rushed — is the difference between a smooth cycle and a missed one. ## Choose the deadline first IMC 2026 offered two cycles: cycle 1 submission ~20 Nov 2025, cycle 2 submission ~29 Apr 2026 (confirm current dates on the Important Dates page). Choose by data-collection readiness, not optimism: - If measurement and ethics approvals will be solid by the earlier cutoff, target cycle 1 — and a One-Shot-Revision still lands you in cycle 2. - If data collection or IRB is unfinished, target cycle 2 rather than submitting thin work that earns a reject instead of a revision. ## Backward plan from the target cutoff ```text [T-0] Submission deadline (AoE). PDF + BBL uploaded; availability declaration set. [T-1wk] Registration cutoff (title/abstract/authors/conflicts) — precedes submission by ~a week. [T-2wk] Final anonymity sweep (incl. vantage points); Ethics sect

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