Skill UI

A comprehensive guide for optimizing computer science manuscripts targeting the USENIX Annual Technical Conference (ATC). It covers core systems research fields (OS, networking, storage, security), defining the required evidence bar (built artifacts, clean evaluation), and re-framing the paper's contribution to align with top-tier systems venue expectations.

A specialized guide for assessing whether a storage systems or file system manuscript fits the USENIX FAST conference. It covers venue positioning, required evidence (realistic workloads, fault models), appropriate framing, and comparison methodologies necessary for top-tier systems conference submissions.

This comprehensive guide outlines the rigorous, multi-step process required for authors to finalize and submit their accepted papers for VLDB proceedings. It covers essential technical compliance points, including using the correct volume template, ensuring PDF/A compliance with embedded fonts, adhering to figure legibility rules, and detailing the permanent storage of research artifacts (DOI-backed). It also outlines the associated conference presentation obligations.

A specialized skill for analyzing client-side persistence mechanisms, including cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB, and Service Workers. It is crucial for security testing and CTF environments where application behavior or critical decision branches are determined by stored session state, cached data, or local client-side variables. Use this to trace the smallest stateful sequence leading to a decisive outcome.

A specialized downstream skill for complex CTF challenges, focusing on cryptographic analysis, steganography, and mobile system forensics. It guides the user through recovering complex data chains, such as decoding blobs, tracing cryptographic transforms (keys, IVs, nonces), inspecting hidden media payloads, and analyzing mobile trust boundaries (e.g., APK/IPA signing logic, local storage, SSL pinning). This skill is designed to be used only after a main sandbox orchestrator has established the operational context.

A specialized, downstream skill designed for forensic analysis within a confined sandbox environment, particularly for CTF challenges. It guides the user to inspect the full stack behavior, including API interactions, server routing, browser state (cookies, local storage), and asynchronous worker processes. Use this skill to trace complex, end-to-end request flows, debug authentication/session leaks, or diagnose discrepancies between frontend UI and backend enforcement.

A powerful, on-device tool for removing, masking, or replacing sensitive Protected Health Information (PHI/PII) from clinical free text. It ensures patient privacy by running fully locally, supporting methods like masking, hashing, and date shifting. Essential for preparing medical records for safe sharing, storage, or analysis, adhering to standards like HIPAA and GDPR.

This comprehensive guide outlines a structured methodology for conducting authorized security testing on desktop thick clients (Win/macOS/Linux). It covers critical attack vectors, including local storage analysis, Inter-Process Communication (IPC) vulnerabilities, network traffic interception, client-side trust boundaries, and advanced reverse engineering techniques using tools like IDA and Ghidra.
