From neurips-skills
Evaluates whether a paper fits NeurIPS, recommends main track vs. alternatives (E&D, Position, MLRC, workshop), and selects contribution type (General, Theory, Use-Inspired, etc.). Outputs fit level, track, contribution type, and upgrade needed.

Use this skill before committing to NeurIPS. The target is not "any good AI paper"; it is a paper whose contribution will matter to the NeurIPS reviewer community and survive the current official track rules.
Strong NeurIPS candidates usually have one of these cores:
Choose the contribution type that changes reviewer expectations. A theory paper should make proofs central. A use-inspired paper needs a real task and ML novelty. A concept-and-feasibility paper needs high-risk/high-reward framing and credible preliminary evidence. A negative-results paper needs a lesson that matters beyond one failed run.
[Fit] High / Medium / Low

npx claudepluginhub brycewang-stanford/awesome-journal-skills --plugin neurips-skillsEvaluates manuscript fit for NeurIPS (Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems), including framing, evidence bar, submission-cycle checks, rebuttal posture, and desk-reject risks for broad ML papers.
Helps decide whether a manuscript fits ICML, choose between main track and Position Papers, or reroute to another ML venue (NeurIPS, ICLR, etc.).
Guides AI researchers on venue fit for IJCAI/ECAI vs. NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, ACL, and others. Evaluates main track, special tracks, Survey Track, and AIJ/JAIR expedited-publication routes.
