What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.
-
overleaf
Refresh local .tex/.bib files against Overleaf before AI edits, so the agent never edits a stale copy (default Overleaf-to-Dropbox sync lags 10-20 min). Refresh path: probe `/project/<id>/updates` (read-only), skip if nothing changed, skip if all changes were our own Dropbox round-trips, else download-zip and extract only the web-origin changed files. WHEN: (1) before editing .tex/.bib/.cls/.sty/…
src/overleaf_sync_now/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab)
No skill matches that filter.
Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
