vis-submission
Use when auditing an IEEE VIS full-paper submission for PCS readiness, covering the abstract-then-paper two-deadline structure under the VGTC society, the IEEE VGTC/TVCG 9+2 page budget, author-optional double-blind anonymization, the supplemental-material one-week window, and desk-reject triage before the AoE cutoff for a paper that will publish in IEEE TVCG.

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.
# VIS Submission Run this audit before uploading to the **Precision Conference System (PCS)**. IEEE VIS full papers are published as **journal articles in IEEE TVCG**, so the submission is judged at a journal bar even though it also earns a conference slot. Every number below was read from the IEEE VIS 2026 Call for Full Papers and Paper Submission Guidelines on 2026-07-09 via search renderings of the `ieeevis.org` URLs (see `resources/official-source-map.md`); treat them as a one-cycle snapshot and reopen the live call first. ## The two-deadline structure (abstract, then paper) VIS separates the **abstract** deadline from the **full-paper** deadline, and both are AoE: - **Abstract (VIS 2026: 21 March 2026)** locks title, abstract, authors, and area/keyword choices. The **author list must be final at this point** — you cannot add authors after it. The abstract also drives area routing and reviewer bidding. - **Full paper (VIS 2026: 31 March 2026)** uploads the PDF. After this, **title, abstract, and the main PDF are frozen**. - **Supplemental material (VIS 2026: 7 April 2026)** has its own later window — a one-week extension introduced so authors can finish and properly anonymize v

What does the vis-submission skill do?
Use when auditing an IEEE VIS full-paper submission for PCS readiness, covering the abstract-then-paper two-deadline structure under the VGTC society, the IEEE VGTC/TVCG 9+2 page budget, author-optional double-blind anonymization, the supplemental-material one-week window, and desk-reject triage before the AoE cutoff for a paper that will publish in IEEE TVCG.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill vis-submission --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.
