PrettySeriousResearcher: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/research-submission/SKILL.md

research-submission is a skill for Claude Code from fbabelle/PrettySeriousResearcher. It costs 56 tokens per session (1,586 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for completing a research-paper submission and handling what follows, including reviews, rebuttals, revisions, camera-ready files, and releases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare portal submissions, anonymize materials, release papers or artifacts, and draft evidence-based rebuttals and resubmissions.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance of missed forms, broken anonymization, incomplete supplements, or poorly supported responses after a paper is ready.

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

research-submission 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Research submission — from approved packet to published paper

The research-mock-review packet ends with the user's submit decision — this skill owns everything after it: executing the submission, the review cycle, camera-ready, and release. Production papers spend real effort here (multi-edition builds, supplements, response passes); an unmanaged tail loses an accepted-quality paper to a missed form, a broken anonymization, or a sloppy rebuttal.

Ground rules

  • Everything outward-facing is user-confirmed before it leaves. The agent stages, verifies, and drafts; the user uploads, clicks, and sends. A submission, an arXiv post, and a rebuttal are all irreversible publications — the same autonomy inversion as research-mock-review.
  • Every portal fact is re-verified against the venue's current pages (forms, field limits, deadlines change every cycle) — the recency discipline of research-venue-selection, never recalled.

Step 1 — Execute the submission

  • Rerun the audits on the exact artifact being submitted — not the working draft: research-provenance (all RESOLVED), research-references (no UNVERIFIABLE), research-visuals (fonts/vector/Type-3), and — if multiple editions exist — a version-consistency check that shared numbers and claims match across them.
  • Walk the venue checklist literally: page limit (incl./excl. references — venues differ), official template, required sections (ethics/broader impact, reproducibility checklist, AI-use disclosure per the venue's policy), and for double-blind an anonymization sweep: author names, acknowledgements, funding, repo/dataset links, self-revealing citation phrasing ("we showed [12]" → "[12] showed"), and PDF metadata (author fields survive compilation — check them).
  • Package the supplement separately when the venue splits main paper from supplementary (appendix overflow, extra ablations, code zip) — each side self-contained, cross-references stated as "see supplementary §X".
  • Artifact / code release: double-blind review → an anonymized mirror (e.g. an anonymous-repo service) with an install + one-command-reproduces-the-headline-table README; acceptance → public repo + archival DOI (e.g. Zenodo). License stated; data availability consistent with the licenses recorded at experiment time (docs/local-env.md; finance data per research-finance-rigor).
  • Stage the portal fields (OpenReview / CMT / EasyChair): draft every form field — title, abstract (portal field limits differ from the paper's abstract), keywords, COI/conflicts — into docs/submission/<venue>-form.md for the user to paste and confirm.
  • arXiv (when the Phase-1 arXiv-vs-double-blind reconciliation says post): category, license selection, and the processor-matched, preview-verified LaTeX source from research-writing's submission build (arXiv recompiles the source — the PDF alone is not a submission). Mind the announcement schedule if timing/priority matters.
  • Record it: submission date + venue + edition tag in the changelog; the fee as a publication cost row (research-tracking); the decision ETA into state.json.target_submission_date context.

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.

research-submission is a skill published in the GitHub repository fbabelle/PrettySeriousResearcher (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 1,586 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
