make-poster

make-poster is a skill for Claude Code from ShaishavMaisuria/research-paper-lifecycle-skills. It costs 101 tokens per session (846 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A checker and editor for making a research paper anonymous for double-blind review, where reviewers should not know the authors' identities. It can also restore author information after acceptance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before submitting to a double-blind venue, when checking self-citations or identifying links, and after acceptance when preparing the camera-ready version.
Why use it?
It helps find identity leaks in the paper, supplementary files, and links, and avoids leaving anonymous placeholders or links behind in the final version.

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

make-poster 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/pitch_check.py, scripts/poster_figures.py, scripts/poster_lint.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.

Make Poster

Turn a paper or poster draft into a print-ready conference poster plan, with real dimensions, readable typography, figure reuse, and a timed short pitch. This skill is for posters and poster-session delivery; use make-slides for podium talks.

When to use

  • The user needs a research poster for a conference, workshop, demo session, or department event.
  • The venue gives a size such as A0, A1, 36x48in, 48x36in, or a custom board.
  • A LaTeX poster already exists and needs a print-day lint pass.
  • The user wants a 2-minute or 5-minute pitch for visitors.

Inputs

  • Poster size from presenter instructions or the acceptance email. Do not guess the board size from memory.
  • Optional: the paper's main .tex file, so figures can be inventoried and copied from the source tree.
  • Optional: existing poster source, usually beamerposter or tikzposter.
  • Optional: draft pitch text in markdown or plain text.

Process

  1. Confirm the physical size and orientation. Run:

    python3 scripts/poster_size.py --size 36x48in
    python3 scripts/poster_size.py --size a0 --orientation portrait
    

    If the venue also gives a board limit, include it:

    python3 scripts/poster_size.py --size 36x48in --board 48x96in
    
  2. Inventory paper figures when a LaTeX paper source is available:

    python3 scripts/poster_figures.py paper/main.tex --copy-to poster/assets
    

    Prefer figures that are central to the paper's claim, cited often, and still readable when enlarged. Avoid cramming full paper multi-panel figures onto the poster without simplification.

  3. Draft or revise the poster around a small number of claims. A good poster is not a paper pasted onto a board: use claim-style section headings, one hero visual, short method/evaluation blocks, and a clear takeaway with contact information or a QR code.

  4. Lint the poster source:

    python3 scripts/poster_lint.py poster/poster.tex --expect-size 36x48in

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.
