What it does
A draft of your systems paper laid out the way OSDI, SOSP, NSDI, ASPLOS and EuroSys reviewers expect, so the strong parts of your work show up on the first read. It saves you from a paper that buries the idea or the evidence. The skill gives each section a page budget in a 10 to 12 page paper. It then plans paragraph by paragraph: what the intro must claim, how the design is motivated, how the evaluation answers each claim. It draws on guides from well known systems researchers and adds a checklist per venue plus a list of reasons reviewers reject papers. It does not cover general machine learning papers.
You give it
- A description of your system and what is new
- Your main results
- The target venue

You get
- A page budget per section
