Description
Compile Typst and LaTeX documents to PDF via API. Send source code, get back a PDF.
Usage Guidance
This skill is internally consistent, but it sends the full contents of any document and any auxiliary files to a public remote service. Before using it with sensitive documents, verify the service owner and privacy/security policy (the OpenAPI contact points at typetex.app vs the server host on modal.run suggest a third-party host), and avoid sending secrets or private data. If you need offline or private compilation, use a local compiler (Typst/Tectonic) instead. As a quick test, try compiling a non-sensitive sample document first to confirm expected behavior.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: typetex
Version: 1.5.0
The skill bundle is designed to compile Typst and LaTeX documents to PDF by sending source code to an external API endpoint: `https://studio-intrinsic--typetex-compile-app.modal.run`. All files, including `SKILL.md` and example Python scripts, consistently demonstrate this intended functionality without any evidence of malicious intent. There are no instructions for prompt injection against the agent, no attempts to exfiltrate local data or credentials, and no unauthorized execution of commands or network calls. The behavior is clearly aligned with its stated purpose.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the provided SKILL.md, examples, and OpenAPI: all show a public HTTP API that accepts source and returns a base64 PDF. No unrelated binaries or credentials are requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions are narrowly scoped to POSTing document content (and optional auxiliary files, including base64-encoded binaries) to the documented endpoints and saving the returned PDF. Important privacy note: users must send full document contents (and any included files) to the external service — compilation logs (for LaTeX failures) may also be returned. The instructions do not ask the agent to read unrelated system files or secrets.
Install Mechanism
No install spec — instruction-only skill and example scripts only use Python requests. Nothing will be written to disk by an installer and no external archives are fetched by the skill itself.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The lack of required secrets is consistent with the skill's stated 'no authentication required' API.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request elevated or persistent system privileges. disable-model-invocation is false (normal), so an agent could call the API autonomously — acceptable given the skill's narrow scope.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install typetex - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/typetex - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
