Use when packaging a PLDI artifact for the post-acceptance evaluation — earning the Functional, Reusable, and Available badges, archiving a DOI-stamped snapshot on Zenodo, containerizing toolchains and benchmark suites, and writing a README an evaluator can follow in a fresh VM.

# PLDI Artifact Evaluation PLDI runs artifact evaluation **after** paper acceptance, deliberately separating paper review from artifact review, and it accepts "any artifact authors wish to submit, broadly defined" — compilers, proofs, benchmark suites, measurement infrastructure (PLDI 2026 research-artifacts track, read 2026-07-08; AE co-chairs for 2026 were Raphaël Monat and Qirun Zhang). Badges appear on the published PACMPL article, so the artifact is part of the paper's permanent record. ## The badge ladder | Badge | 2026-cycle criterion | What actually earns it | |---|---|---| | Functional | Artifact supports the paper's claims and works as documented | An evaluator reproduces your headline flow from the README alone | | Reusable | Only awarded to Functional artifacts judged especially well packaged, documented, and designed for future research | Extension points documented; someone could swap in a new benchmark or pass | | Available | Automatic once the complete artifact is archived publicly in an archival location | A Zenodo snapshot with a DOI — a lab GitHub link does not qualify | Two structural kindnesses in the 2026 rules: artifacts are requested only after acceptance, a

What does the pldi-artifact-evaluation skill do?
Use when packaging a PLDI artifact for the post-acceptance evaluation — earning the Functional, Reusable, and Available badges, archiving a DOI-stamped snapshot on Zenodo, containerizing toolchains and benchmark suites, and writing a README an evaluator can follow in a fresh VM.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill pldi-artifact-evaluation --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.
