Polish LaTeX papers and PDFs through evidence proofreading, deslop-style prose cleanup, TeX compilation, warning triage, and layout fixes for widows, orphans, overfull boxes, trailing paragraphs, dense tables, captions, URLs, and artifact paths. Use when the user asks to prepare, review, polish, typeset, compile, or make a LaTeX paper/PDF shareable.
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
# LaTeX Paper Polish Use this skill for research notes, white papers, case studies, and technical PDFs where the goal is not only "compile the TeX" but "make the artifact credible and readable." This skill combines four passes: 1. Evidence and claim proofreading. 2. Deslop-style prose cleanup. 3. TeX/PDF build and warning triage. 4. Typesetting polish for page flow, tables, URLs, and dangling text. ## Trigger Use this skill when the user asks for any of the following: - polish a LaTeX paper or PDF - compile or rebuild a paper - proofread a paper draft - deslop a paper - fix trailing paragraphs, widows, or orphans - make a PDF shareable - inspect LaTeX warnings - improve tables, appendix layout, claim sections, or evidence sections If the task explicitly mentions "deslop", also use the installed `deslop` skill. ## Safety Gates Treat compilation as a local file operation. Do not install a TeX distribution, fetch remote assets, overwrite a canonical PDF, or publish a paper without the user's authorization. Preserve claims, citations, and uncertainty during prose and layout edits; a cleaner page must not imply stronger evidence. ## Workflow ### 1. Locate the Source and PDF …

How to install
mdr add understudylabs/orchestra-agent-tools/latex-paper-polish@sha256:d19b8feeb5b088c1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260812.510c636, 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.
