neurips-supplementary
Use when deciding what NeurIPS material belongs in the main PDF body, the references, text appendices, the mandatory Paper Checklist, the separate code/data ZIP, or an external public artifact, and how to keep every supplemental component anonymous under double-blind review.

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.
# NeurIPS Supplementary Use this skill to prevent two common NeurIPS failures: hiding the main contribution in the appendix and overloading the main paper with details that belong in supplemental material. ## Placement rules - Main paper: problem, contribution, method, essential theory, core experiments, limitations, and enough detail for reviewers to judge correctness. - References: complete, verified citations; do not rely on AI-generated references without manual verification. - Text appendices: proofs, derivations, additional ablations, dataset details, model cards, extended limitations, and supporting analyses. - Checklist: mandatory and placed according to current template instructions. - Separate ZIP: code, data, scripts, configuration files, logs, lightweight demo assets, or other review artifacts when allowed by current rules. ## NeurIPS-specific guardrails - The supplement does not rescue an unclear main claim. Reviewers are not required to read every supplemental detail. - Supplementary material must be anonymized during double-blind review. - Links must preserve anonymous browsing and comply with current policy. - Code and data that support central claims should include

What does the neurips-supplementary skill do?
Use when deciding what NeurIPS material belongs in the main PDF body, the references, text appendices, the mandatory Paper Checklist, the separate code/data ZIP, or an external public artifact, and how to keep every supplemental component anonymous under double-blind review.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill neurips-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 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.
