Each OOPSLA round gives authors one written response before decisions are finalized; the 2026 call scheduled it as a four-day Tuesday-to-Friday window per round (exact 2026 dates 待核实 — read them off the live HotCRP instance). What makes the OOPSLA response unlike a classic rebuttal is the decision space: reviewers are not only choosing accept-or-reject, they are choosing among Accept, Minor Revision, Major Revision, and Reject (2026 merged the old Conditional Accept into Minor Revision). Your response is an argument about which bucket the paper's problems belong in.
Oopsla Author Response is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/oopsla-author-response/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when writing an OOPSLA author response inside the short per-round window — reading reviews through the four-outcome lens (Accept, Minor Revision, Major Revision, Reject), steering borderline papers toward a revision outcome instead of rejection, and committing only to changes deliverable within the round's revision mechanics.
The Oopsla Author Response Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 174,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
