CCFA Skills v0.5 — Writing Style Reform & Paper-to-Exemplar

CCFA Skills v0.5 — Writing Style Reform & Paper-to-Exemplar

14-skill governed family. One paper-project loop.

What's New

• ccf-paper-to-exemplar: Convert any top-conference paper PDF into a reusable writing exemplar card. ccf-paper-writer learns your favorite writing style directly from exemplars.
• 32 Best-Paper Exemplars across CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, AAAI, ICML, NeurIPS, ACL, ACMMM — covering abstract/introduction/method/experiment/conclusion patterns.
• Venue-Guided Citation Workflow: Literature search now returns open gaps, opportunity maps, and venue-targeted reference chains.
• Hardened Validation: CI checks pass cleanly — all four ccf-common scripts (check_path_privacy, check_sources, check_markdown_links, check_v04) run green.
• Updated Assets: All24 SVG diagrams reflect v0.5 ·14 owner skills.

Fixes

• Removed UTF-8 BOM from .codex-plugin/plugin.json and .claude-plugin/plugin.json that blocked the v0.4 validation pipeline.
• SVG version tags now read �0.5 ·14 owner skills across all languages (EN / zh-CN / zh-TW).

Tech

• Plugin manifests: v0.5
• Runtime:14 ccf-* owner skills + shared governance via ccf-common
• Demo: demo/attention-is-all-you-need/ — ICLR closed-loop paper project

v0.4

Summary

v0.4.0 upgrades CCFA Skills from a writing-oriented skill set into a governed CCF paper-project workflow family.

Highlights

• Migrated 109 legacy venue runtime skills into ccf-writing-skills/references/venue-guides/ and added ccf-conference-guides as the format-only entrypoint.
• Renamed forge-skills to ccf-forge-skills; all installable skills now use the ccf- prefix.
• Added project orchestration, scaffolding, integrity audit, citation audit, submission checking, figure/table building, artifact reproducibility, revision ledger, resubmission adaptation, and paper-talk skills.
• Added ccfa.yaml, artifact contracts, trigger registry, architecture docs, agent guide, plugin manifests, changelog, and GitHub Actions validation.
• Updated README EN/zh-CN/zh-TW and regenerated architecture/workflow/review-boundary SVGs.

Compatibility

• Core research-chain skill names are preserved.
• Legacy ccf-conference-skills/<venue>/SKILL.md is no longer installable. Use ccf-conference-guides or the venue-guide reference branch.
• Venue policy notes are migrated references and must be rechecked against official current-year venue pages before final submission.

Validation

Passed locally:

• python ccf-common/scripts/check_v04.py
• python ccf-common/scripts/check_path_privacy.py .
• python ccf-common/scripts/check_sources.py
• python ccf-common/scripts/check_markdown_links.py
• python plugin-creator/scripts/validate_plugin.py .
• rg -nP "^name: (?!ccf-)" -g "SKILL.md" produced no matches.

CCFA Skills v0.3.0

Highlights

• Added ccf-conference-reviewer for complete scientific conference-paper review, simulated reviewers, AC/meta-review, score calibration, concerns tables, and fixed-format Markdown reports.
• Renamed the writing-only review skill to ccf-conference-writing-reviewer and narrowed it to paragraph-level writing, LaTeX/format, logic, consistency, and presentation review.
• Tightened ccf-idea-reviewer so it only triggers for explicit idea scoring, ranking, strict review, or investment triage.
• Clarified ccf-idea-optimizer boundaries so fuzzy idea optimization does not conflict with idea scoring/ranking.
• Updated CCFA routing, handoff rules, README files, architecture SVG, and source registry.

Validation

• quick_validate.py passed for all ccf-* skills.
• ccf-common/scripts/check_sources.py passed.
• Tracked files contain no legacy ccf-conference-paper-reviewer references.
• Route smoke checks confirm the reviewer, writing-reviewer, idea-reviewer, and idea-optimizer ownership boundaries.
