Prepare an arXiv submission package from a LaTeX paper. Cleans the source, builds a tarball, and extracts metadata for upload.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# arxiv-prep — arXiv Submission Preparation
Automate the tedious steps of preparing a LaTeX paper for arXiv upload. Creates a clean copy, removes cruft, verifies compilation, and produces a ready-to-upload tarball.
## When to Use
- "prep for arxiv", "make an arxiv package", "I need to upload this to arxiv"
- After the paper is finalized and ready for submission
- Complements `paper-presubmit-checks` (content quality) — this skill handles packaging
## Workflow
### Phase 1: Pre-clean (judgment calls)
#### 1. Find the paper
Same search logic as paper-presubmit-checks:
1. User-provided path
2. `paper/current/main.tex`
3. `paper/main.tex`
4. `main.tex`
5. Glob for `**/*.tex` with `\begin{document}`
Identify the **paper directory** (parent of the main `.tex` file). All subsequent operations are relative to this directory.
#### 2. Optionally run paper-presubmit-checks
Ask the user: "Want me to run the paper-presubmit-checks first?" Skip if they say they already did.
#### 3. Check for supplements
Scan for separate supplement/appendix `.tex` files (e.g., `supp.tex`, `appendix.tex`, `si.tex`). If found, ask the user whether to:
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add fourteen1416/academic-agent-toolkit/arxiv-submission-package@sha256:099322a0771c5affThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260927.a059f3a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
