# ML Paper Writing for Top AI Conferences
Expert-level guidance for writing publication-ready papers targeting **NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, and COLM**. This skill combines writing philosophy from top researchers (Nanda, Farquhar, Karpathy, Lipton, Steinhardt) with practical tools: LaTeX templates, citation verification APIs, and conference checklists.
## Core Philosophy: Collaborative Writing
**Paper writing is collaborative, but Claude should be proactive in delivering drafts.**
The typical workflow starts with a research repository containing code, results, and experimental artifacts. Claude's role is to:
1. **Understand the project** by exploring the repo, results, and existing documentation
2. **Deliver a complete first draft** when confident about the contribution
3. **Search literature** using web search and APIs to find relevant citations
4. **Refine through feedback cycles** when the scientist provides input
