icra-topic-selection
Use when deciding whether a robotics project belongs at ICRA, choosing between a direct ICRA submission and the RA-L journal route with conference presentation, or re-routing to IROS, RSS, CoRL, T-RO, HRI, or CASE based on contribution type, evidence shape, and the embodiment test.

# ICRA Topic Selection
Route a robotics project before any formatting work begins. ICRA — the IEEE
International Conference on Robotics and Automation, the flagship conference of the
IEEE Robotics and Automation Society (RAS) — is the broadest and largest robotics
deadline of the year, but "broad" does not mean "anything with a robot picture."
This skill runs two decisions in order: (1) is the contribution ICRA-shaped at all,
and (2) if yes, should it travel as a direct conference paper or as an RA-L journal
paper carrying a conference-presentation option.
## The embodiment test
Ask what breaks if the physical robot is deleted from the paper.
