Convert PDF documents to LaTeX source code using MinerU AI extraction. Designed for researchers, academics, and scientists who need to re-edit, re-typeset, o...

README (SKILL.md)

PDF to LaTeX

Convert PDF documents to LaTeX format using MinerU. Best suited for academic papers and documents with formulas or complex layouts.

Install

npm install -g mineru-open-api
go install github.com/opendatalab/MinerU-Ecosystem/cli/mineru-open-api@latest

Quick Start

mineru-open-api extract paper.pdf -f latex -o ./out/
mineru-open-api extract paper.pdf -f latex --model vlm -o ./out/
mineru-open-api extract https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.10918 -f latex -o ./out/

Authentication

Token required:

mineru-open-api auth
export MINERU_TOKEN="your-token"

Create token at: https://mineru.net/apiManage/token

Capabilities

Supported input: .pdf (local file or URL)
Output format: LaTeX (-f latex)
LaTeX output requires extract with token
Use --model vlm for papers with complex math, tables, or multi-column layouts
Language hint with --language (default: ch, use en for English)

Notes

LaTeX output is only available via extract with token
--model vlm gives higher accuracy; use pipeline for guaranteed fidelity
Output goes to stdout by default; use -o \x3Cdir> to save to a file
MinerU is open-source by OpenDataLab (Shanghai AI Lab): https://github.com/opendatalab/MinerU

Usage Guidance

This skill appears coherent, but review these practical points before installing: 1) mineru-open-api will upload documents to MinerU (mineru.net) — do not send private/confidential PDFs unless you trust the service and token permissions; 2) verify the npm package and GitHub repo identities (package name and repo owner) before running install commands to avoid typosquatting; 3) MINERU_TOKEN grants access to the MinerU API—treat it like a secret and rotate or restrict it as needed; 4) if you need offline conversion or a privacy-preserving workflow, look for a local-only tool instead. If you want higher assurance, provide the exact npm package and GitHub repo checksums or URLs for manual review.

Capability Analysis

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: pdf-to-latex-mineru Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle provides a legitimate interface for the MinerU PDF-to-LaTeX conversion service by OpenDataLab. It requires a standard API token (MINERU_TOKEN) and uses a CLI tool (mineru-open-api) to process documents, with no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration beyond the service's purpose, or prompt injection in SKILL.md.

Capability Assessment

✓ Purpose & Capability

Name/description (PDF→LaTeX) align with required binary (mineru-open-api) and required env var (MINERU_TOKEN). The declared install options (npm package and Go repo) are appropriate for a CLI integration.

ℹ Instruction Scope

SKILL.md only instructs using the mineru-open-api CLI and the MINERU_TOKEN, and references local files or URLs (e.g., arXiv). This is within scope, but the workflow implies sending PDFs to an external MinerU service/API for extraction — users should be aware their document contents will be uploaded/processed remotely.

✓ Install Mechanism

Installers are standard package mechanisms (npm and go install from a GitHub repo). No opaque download URLs, extract operations, or custom installers are present.

✓ Credentials

Only a single service credential (MINERU_TOKEN) is required and declared as the primary credential, consistent with the documented auth flow. No unrelated secrets or config paths are requested.

✓ Persistence & Privilege

Skill is not configured always:true and does not request system-wide config changes. Autonomous invocation is enabled by default (normal); nothing else indicates elevated or persistent privileges.

How to Use

Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
Run the install command in chat: /install pdf-to-latex-mineru
After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /pdf-to-latex-mineru
Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
