Prompt
While incorporating reviewer requested revisions into our COLT manuscript, we deleted several redundant equation labels and rephrased sections. What specific automated log check should we run to catch broken cross-references introduced during these camera-ready edits? Format your output using the standard 5-line status structure.

COLT Camera Ready
Use this after a COLT acceptance. COLT proceedings are published electronically in the
Proceedings of Machine Learning Research (PMLR) — verified against the COLT 2026 CFP
and PMLR volume pages on 2026-07-08. The camera-ready instructions arrive with the
acceptance notification; they, not this file, control exact dates and forms.

current program chairs
Volume editors are the program chairs of that edition; the pairing rotates every year.
The COLT 2026 volume number and camera-ready deadline were not yet published at the
access date — take both from your acceptance email.
De-anonymization pass
Remove the template's anon option so the author block renders; verify the running
head and PDF metadata now carry real names.
Restore acknowledgements, funding lines, and any statements the anonymous version cut.
These lines add length — recheck where the body boundary falls if the current
instructions still enforce a body limit at camera-ready (待核实 per cycle).
Rewrite defensive third-person self-citations ("the authors of [12] showed") back
into honest first person where it reads better.
Swap anonymized or omitted repository links for stable public URLs, and test each
from a logged-out browser.
Consolidating the archival PDF
At COLT the appendix ships inside the same archival PDF, so the proceedings version is
the complete record — there is no separately hosted supplement to lean on later.
Fold every rebuttal-promised edit into the text now: theorem statements that must
carry an explicit constant, assumptions promoted from appendix to body, corrected
displays. Keep a private ledger mapping each reviewer request to the diff that
answers it, because chairs occasionally spot-check.
Use when auditing a COLT (Conference on Learning Theory) submission for CMT readiness, the 12-page PMLR-format main body, single-PDF assembly with unlimited appendix, double-anonymous formatting, the parallel-submission ban covering journals and proceedings venues, and the ordered final-week checks before the AoE deadline.
