ieee-polishing

ieee-polishing is a skill for Codex from CloudWave818/ieee-skills. It costs 92 tokens per session (428 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for editing technical papers into the formal English style used by IEEE, a major professional and academic engineering organisation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to revise abstracts, introductions, methods, results, conclusions, figure captions, rebuttals, or Chinese-to-English technical manuscripts.
Why use it?
It helps fix unclear writing, weak reasoning, unsupported claims, and wording that sounds translated or generated without changing the underlying facts.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ieee-polishing scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

IEEE Polishing Router

Use this skill for IEEE-style language and logic polishing. Polishing means repairing both prose and technical argument structure.

Do not polish only from memory. Follow the routing protocol and load the selected fragments.

Routing Protocol

  1. Read manifest.yaml.
  2. Read every file listed under always_load.
  3. Detect the axes:
    • section: title / abstract / introduction / related-work / method / experiments / conclusion / caption / response / standalone.
    • language: en / zh-to-en.
    • failure_mode: vague-claims / unsupported-novelty / weak-contribution / poor-method-rationale / chinglish / result-underreporting / ai-like-prose.
    • polish_depth: light / standard / structural.
  4. State the detected axes in one short line before editing.
  5. Load only the matching fragments.
  6. Polish with this priority order:
    • preserve facts,
    • repair IEEE engineering logic,
    • align with section purpose,
    • apply failure-mode repair,
    • improve sentence-level English.

Red Lines

Do not invent numerical results, datasets, baselines, citations, equations, algorithms, or claims.

Do not hide a missing-evidence problem behind fluent English. Flag it.

Do not over-polish into Nature-style broad-interest prose. Keep IEEE direct, technical, and verifiable.

Output Contract

Default: return the polished text first, then a short Notes block only when you made structural repairs or the text still needs evidence.

For intensive editing requests, return a table with Issue | Revision | Reason.

Files

What ships with it

27 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
