add-venue-profile

add-venue-profile is a skill for Claude Code from ShaishavMaisuria/research-paper-lifecycle-skills. It costs 144 tokens per session (1,983 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for turning a conference’s Call for Papers (CFP) webpage into a YAML venue profile, a structured file describing submission rules such as deadlines and page limits.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add a conference, update a new CFP cycle, validate a drafted venue profile, or prepare it for submission.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of copying incorrect conference requirements into a shared repository. It also checks the profile against the repository’s schema and prepares a contribution pull request.

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

add-venue-profile 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/fetch_cfp.py, scripts/init_profile.py, scripts/validate_profile.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 170 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Add Venue Profile

Turn a conference's Call for Papers into a merge-ready venue profile — the community-contribution loop that grows the venues/ data moat. Output is one new file, venues/conferences/<venue>-<year>.yml, that passes validation and arrives with provenance, plus a prepared (never auto-opened) pull request. Every other venue-aware skill (preflight-check, tailor-to-venue, write-rebuttal, prepare-camera-ready) runs on these profiles, so a wrong fact here becomes someone else's desk reject. Accuracy beats completeness.

When to use

  • "Add VENUE to the repo" / "contribute a venue profile" / "my conference isn't in venues/".
  • A new CFP cycle opened and last year's profile must be copied forward.
  • A drafted profile needs validation or PR prep before submission upstream.

Inputs

  • The venue's live CFP or author-instructions URL (ask for it if the user only names the venue — never build a profile from memory).
  • venues/schema.yml — read it first; it defines every field and the mandatory verified: provenance block.
  • An existing family file in venues/families/ (pick via the table in references/profile-walkthrough.md).
  • CONTACT_EMAIL env var for the polite fetch User-Agent (script prompts if unset).

Process

  1. Scope one venue, one year. Read venues/schema.yml. If venues/conferences/ already has this venue:

    • same year → switch to refreshing that file (re-verify every fact live);
    • older year → copy forward into a NEW file. Never edit last year's file into this year's; profiles are year-versioned on purpose, and every copied fact must be re-verified against the live CFP.
  2. Scaffold the skeleton. Pick the family from the walkthrough table, then run from the repo root:

    python3 skills/add-venue-profile/scripts/init_profile.py <venue>-<year> \
        --family <family> --cfp-url "<url>"
    

    This writes a schema-shaped skeleton with TODO markers and a needs-verification provenance block. It refuses to overwrite existing profiles and rejects unknown families (listing the valid ones).

What ships with it

5 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.
