ieee-writing

ieee-writing is a skill for Claude Code from TenWalk/ieee-skills. It costs 198 tokens per session (2,689 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A writing guide for creating or restructuring research papers for IEEE communications journals, which publish work on networking and communication systems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan or draft sections such as the abstract, introduction, related work, system model, algorithms, proofs, numerical results, and discussion.
Why use it?
It keeps claims tied to evidence and gives technical papers a clear structure without inventing results, methods, or references.

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-writing 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.

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

IEEE-Style Scientific Writing

Use this skill to create or rebuild IEEE manuscript prose — to construct the argument, not only to polish finished sentences. For sentence-level language work, hand off to ieee-polishing.

Core stance

  • Author evidence comes first. Never invent results, numbers, mechanisms, references, benchmark schemes, channel models, simulation parameters, network architectures, training data, novelty claims or limitations. If essential evidence is missing, write an explicit [PLACEHOLDER: ...] or ask the user — do not fill the gap.
  • Write the argument before the sentences. Decide what each paragraph must prove, then draft.
  • Make the paper easy to judge on relevance, novelty, soundness, and reproducibility — these are the axes IEEE reviewers actually score.
  • Ambitious but bounded claims. Tie every claim to the evidence that supports it and stop the claim where the evidence stops.
  • IEEE register, not magazine narrative: precise, technical, US English, numbered citations [n], equations numbered only for the skeleton of the argument.

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.

ieee-writing is a skill published in the GitHub repository TenWalk/ieee-skills (5 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 198 tokens to every session and 2,689 once invoked, about $0.0010 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.
