What this skill tells the agent

LaTeX Formatting

Set up and manage LaTeX formatting for academic papers.

Input

  • $0 — Action: setup, fix, check
  • $1 — Venue name (for setup) or .tex file path (for fix/check)

Scripts

Pre-submission format checker

python ~/.claude/skills/latex-formatting/scripts/latex_checker.py paper/main.tex --venue neurips --check-anon

Checks: word count, required sections, TODO markers, anonymization, mismatched environments, content stats.

Validate citations and references

python ~/.claude/skills/citation-management/scripts/validate_citations.py \
  --tex paper/main.tex --bib paper/references.bib --check-figures

Clean LaTeX text (fix special characters)

python ~/.claude/skills/latex-formatting/scripts/clean_latex.py \
  --input paper/main.tex --output paper/main_cleaned.tex

Replaces special/non-UTF8 characters with LaTeX equivalents, skips math environments. Key flags: --dry-run, --tables-only

Auto-fix after checking

python ~/.claude/skills/latex-formatting/scripts/latex_checker.py paper/main.tex --venue neurips --fix

Runs checks then applies clean_latex.py fixes, writing to main_fixed.tex.

References

  • Venue specs, project structure, packages, commands: ~/.claude/skills/latex-formatting/references/venue-templates.md

Action: setup

Create the project directory structure and main.tex for the specified venue. Use the template from references/venue-templates.md.

Action: fix

Fix common LaTeX issues: unescaped special chars, math mode errors, float placement, overfull/underfull boxes, cross-reference issues.

Action: check

Run latex_checker.py for pre-submission validation. Check page count, anonymization, required sections, TODO markers.

Algorithm Design

Design algorithms with LaTeX pseudocode and UML diagrams. Generate algorithmic environments, Mermaid class/sequence diagrams, and ensure consistency between pseudocode and implementation. Use when formalizing methods for a paper.

Atomic Decomposition

Decompose research ideas into atomic, self-contained concepts with bidirectional math-code mapping. For each concept, extract the math formula from papers and find code implementations. Use for complex system papers requiring formal grounding.

Backward Traceability

Make every number in the final PDF traceable to the exact code line that produced it. Uses \hypertarget/\hyperlink LaTeX commands and \num{formula} evaluated at compile time. Use for reproducibility and data integrity verification.
