Templates: research-report (cover + TOC, default) or plain (no cover, no TOC).
list_templatesA	List all available PDF templates with their descriptions.

Interactive templates invoked by user choice

`quick_note`	Save the current conversation or content as a quick PDF note using the plain template (no cover, no TOC).
`pdf_outline`	Draft a structured outline for a research report before generating the full PDF. Useful for long-form documents where alignment on structure matters before research begins.
