write-abstract

write-abstract is a skill for Claude Code from ShaishavMaisuria/research-paper-lifecycle-skills. It costs 185 tokens per session (2,046 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A writing tool for creating or revising research-paper abstracts for specific conferences or publication formats. It can also prepare the title, abstract, authors, topics, and conflict-of-interest details needed for abstract registration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Drafting abstracts, meeting word limits, adding the required keywords or classification section, and preparing registration information before submission.
Why use it?
It helps fit an abstract to a venue's format and length requirements while keeping claims tied to verified results.

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

write-abstract 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/abstract_check.py, scripts/abstract_registration.py, scripts/keywords_block.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 — 169 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Write Abstract

Produce a venue-compliant abstract — right length, right keywords block, five-move structure, verified numbers only — and, when the venue has a separate abstract-registration deadline, the complete registration card (title, abstract, authors, topics, COI list) ready to paste into the submission form.

When to use

  • Drafting or rewriting an abstract for a specific venue or template family (acmart / IEEEtran / llncs / NeurIPS-style).
  • Fitting an abstract to a word limit, or adding the missing CCS Concepts / Index Terms / keywords block.
  • An abstract-registration deadline is approaching and the user must register title + abstract + topics + conflicts before the paper PDF.

Related skills: tailor-to-venue (whole-paper retargeting), parse-cfp (build a missing venue profile), preflight-check (final desk-reject lint), verify-citations (gate for any reference work).

Inputs

  • The draft (main .tex preferred — keyword blocks are checked in context) or the abstract as plain text; or, for a fresh draft, the paper's contributions and verified results from the user.
  • Venue profile: venues/conferences/<id>.yml or venues/families/<f>.yml (schema: venues/schema.yml). If neither exists, do NOT invent venue facts — run parse-cfp on the CFP URL or quote the live CFP directly.

Process

1. Resolve venue norms, then re-verify (mandatory)

Load the profile (format.abstract_words, format.keywords, deadlines.abstract/paper + timezone, review.blind). Profiles go stale: before the user relies on a word limit, keyword requirement, or any deadline, re-verify it against the live cfp_url and say what was checked and when. If the CFP cannot be fetched, label every profile-derived fact "UNVERIFIED — confirm on CFP". When abstract_words is null, present 150-250 words as a convention, never as a venue rule — see references/venue-norms.md.

2. Draft (or diagnose) with the five-move structure

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.
