# Venue Templates Prepare publication and funding documents without treating stale formatting details as authoritative. This skill combines: - a verification-first workflow for current venue rules; - bundled LaTeX scaffolds for a small, explicit set of document types; - writing-style and reviewer-expectation guides; and - local helpers for discovering, copying, and inspecting templates. ## Mandatory Currency Rule Venue requirements are time-sensitive. Before giving exact page limits, deadlines, style-file names, anonymity rules, or required sections: 1. Identify the exact venue, year or funding cycle, track, and article or proposal type. 2. Open the official author instructions, call, solicitation, notice of funding opportunity (NOFO), or policy guide. 3. Record the source URL and the date checked. 4. Distinguish initial submission, revision/rebuttal, and camera-ready rules. 5. Treat bundled files as scaffolds unless this skill explicitly says they are a copy of an official template. Never infer a current style-file name by changing the year in an old filename. Never present a generic scaffold as an official venue template. ## When to Use Use this skill for: - locating official jou

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add K-Dense-AI/claude-scientific-writer --skill venue-templates --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 K-Dense-AI/claude-scientific-writer, a repository with 2,169 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.
