Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| open_projectA | Open a project and run the safety gate: pull, verify every \usepackage resolves locally, then baseline-compile each root. Required before any write. |
| outlineA | Map a document's structure with line numbers — sections, figures, labels, includes. Use before reading; far cheaper than the whole file. |
| readA | Read a file, line-numbered. lines='150-190' reads a range; omit for all. Prefer a range guided by outline. |
| grepB | Regex-search the project, returning file:line: match. |
| filesC | List .tex files, marking which are roots. |
| compileA | Compile the root owning |
| renderA | One page of the compiled PDF as an image, for layout only — float placement, overlap, figure sizing. Expensive: try compile() warnings first, and use read() for anything about the text itself. |
| editA | Replace an exact snippet, then compile and push. |
| writeA | Create or overwrite a file, then compile and push. For new documents and whole-file rewrites; prefer edit() for changes to an existing document. |
| add_assetA | Copy a local image or binary into the project, then push. Compiles only the roots that actually reference it — an unreferenced file cannot break a build. |
