Neurips Camera Ready
Documentsneurips-camera-readyNeurips Camera Ready is an Agent Skill for documents published in the brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills repository on GitHub: a SKILL.md instruction file an AI agent can load to do this task.
Use when preparing accepted NeurIPS papers for camera-ready upload, de-anonymization, final checklist, code/data release, OpenReview metadata, and post-acceptance obligations.
How to use this skill
Bring this guide into your coding agent with a prompt tailored to the tool you use.
- Open your project in Codex.
- Copy and paste the prompt below.
- Review files and risks before approving any action.
Inspect the Agent Skill at https://github.com/brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills/blob/HEAD/NeurIPS-Skills/skills/neurips-camera-ready/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/neurips-camera-ready, but wait for my approval before writing files or running scripts.
Copying this prompt does not install or run the skill. Review third-party files before use.
NeurIPS Camera-Ready
Use this skill only after acceptance. Camera-ready work is not just formatting: it is where anonymous review artifacts become public scientific records.
Official items to reopen
- Current camera-ready instructions in OpenReview and the yearly NeurIPS handbook.
- Final template and style file.
- Final page, file-size, checklist, appendix, and upload rules.
- Proceedings license, author metadata, presenter/registration requirements, and any presentation or poster instructions.
2026 baseline facts
The 2026 handbook states that accepted papers get one additional content page for camera-ready and that camera-ready upload happens through the OpenReview paper page by selecting the camera-ready version. It also says the final PDF combines paper pages, references, text appendices, and the paper checklist. Treat these as 2026 facts, not permanent rules.
Camera-ready workflow
- Resolve reviewer and AC issues that are allowed in camera-ready without changing the accepted contribution beyond recognition.
- De-anonymize authors, acknowledgments, repositories, datasets, model cards, code comments, and supplementary artifacts.
- Update the checklist so every answer reflects the final paper and public artifacts.
- Replace anonymous review links with stable public links, preferably with archived code and persistent dataset identifiers where appropriate.
- Verify that all figures, tables, citations, appendices, and artifact instructions match the final claims.
- Run a final integrity pass for hallucinated citations, broken links, hidden author metadata, and accidental private data.
