USENIX FAST Conference Submission Assistant
Evaluates, frames, and prepares storage and file systems research papers for submission to the USENIX FAST conference.
The USENIX FAST Conference Submission Assistant is a specialized Claude Code skill designed for systems researchers targeting the USENIX Conference on File and Storage Technologies (FAST). It provides comprehensive venue-fit assessments, narrative reframing strategies, and empirical evidence gap analyses tailored to storage, persistence, and file systems research. By enforcing community expectations around realistic workloads, failure models, durability tradeoffs, and robust artifact validation, this skill helps authors navigate submission guidelines, prevent common desk-reject pitfalls, and strategically route manuscripts across sibling systems venues like EuroSys, ATC, OSDI, and SOSP.
