What problem does it solve? Finalizing a research paper submission involves many error-prone manual checks: verifying the build compiles, lint passes, venue page limits hold, reviewer promises are honored, and the package contains no identity leaks. This Skill automates that preflight and packaging workflow, producing a verified submission bundle, a durable SUBMISSION record, and a git freeze tag. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Gated packaging: Runs the build and lint scripts as hard gates, walks venue checklists, sweeps figure/table/bibliography completeness, then assembles the camera PDF, supplementary, and arXiv-ready source under wkdrs/builds/. - Freeze and record: Writes cycls/<cycle>/SUBMISSION_<date>.md and creates the freeze/<cycle>_<date> git tag on a clean tree, never pushing or uploading. - Venue template conversion: Reformats the paper into a user-supplied official venue template kit as a regenerable copy, reporting the page count against the confirmed limit and logging human-actionable findings. - Use Case: Before submitting to a conference, run the packer to confirm lint passes, all reviewer promises are checked off, and the anonymized package compiles from inside the bundle, then freeze the exact tree with a tag. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run /stage-subm-packer to preflight and package the current cycle's submission, or add the camera or convert argument for camera-ready packaging or venue template conversion.
