Sync and manage Overleaf LaTeX projects from the command line. Pull projects locally, push changes back, compile PDFs, and download compile outputs like .bbl files for arXiv submissions. Use when working with LaTeX, Overleaf, academic papers, or arXiv.
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
# Overleaf Skill Manage Overleaf LaTeX projects via the `olcli` CLI, native git remote, or MCP server. ## When to Use Which Mode | Mode | Best for | How | |------|----------|-----| | **CLI** (`olcli`) | Interactive workflows, sync, compile, arXiv prep | `olcli pull/push/sync/pdf` | | **Git remote** | Version control, commits, diffs, CI/CD pipelines | `git clone overleaf::…` then standard git | | **MCP server** | AI agents with MCP support (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf) | Connect via `olcli-mcp` stdio transport | Use **CLI** when you need bidirectional sync with conflict detection, compilation, or comment management. Use **Git remote** when you want proper git history, branches, and standard `git push/pull`. Use **MCP** when an AI agent has native MCP support and doesn't need to shell out. ## Installation ```bash # Homebrew (recommended) brew tap aloth/tap && brew install olcli # npm npm install -g @aloth/olcli ``` ## Authentication Get your session cookie from Overleaf: 1. Log into [overleaf.com](https://www.overleaf.com) 2. Open DevTools (F12) → Application → Cookies 3. Copy the value of `overleaf_session2` ```bash olcli auth --cookie "YOUR_SESSION_COOKIE" ``` …

How to install
mdr add aloth/olcli/overleaf@sha256:da51a11f0e2c5a1dThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.3, 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.
