TeXFlow

Create, ingest, and inspect documents.

Actions:

• create: Scaffold a new empty document. Optionally set class, title, author.
• ingest: Parse markdown text, .tex file, or .md file into the document model.
• outline: Show document structure (sections, block counts).
• read: Read content of a specific section as prose text.
• update: Update document metadata (title, author, date, abstract).
• reset: Clear the current document and saved state. Next create/ingest starts fresh.
• bib_add: Add a bibliography entry (provide BibTeX-format entry as source).
• bib_remove: Remove a bibliography entry by key (provide key as source).
• bib_list: List all bibliography entries.
• bib_style: Set bibliography style (provide style name as source, e.g. "authoryear", "numeric").

Manipulate document content structurally.

Actions:

• insert: Add a new block at a position within a section.
• replace: Replace a block at a position with new content.
• delete: Remove a block at a position.
• move: Move a block from one location to another.
• read_raw: Read a RawLatex block with line numbers.
• replace_raw: Update a RawLatex block (full or line-level) with lint check.

Sections are addressed by title path (e.g., 'Methods/Data Collection'). Blocks within a section are addressed by 0-based index.

page_break: For sections — "before", "after", "both", or "" to clear. Emits \clearpage before/after the section.

Configure document typesetting and layout.

Only provided parameters are changed; others are left as-is.

section_break: Page break before level-1 sections. "before" inserts \clearpage before each \section. Works in any column mode. Individual sections can override via edit(page_break="before").

Execute multiple operations in a single call.

Each operation is a dict with 'tool' (document, layout, edit, render, reference) plus the arguments for that tool. Operations run sequentially; disk is written once at the end.

Search LaTeX documentation, symbols, packages, and error solutions.

Actions:

• search: Search for LaTeX commands or general topics.
• symbol: Find symbols by description (e.g., "approximately equal").
• package: Get information about a LaTeX package.
• check_style: Analyze a .tex file for best practices.
• error_help: Get help for LaTeX error messages.
• example: Get working examples for a topic (table, equation, figure, list, code).
• templates: Browse available LaTeX templates. Optionally filter by category or slug.
• capabilities: Enumerate system LaTeX support (engines, tools, packages).
• styles: Browse document style presets. Optionally filter by slug or keyword.

Compile and export the document.

Actions:

• compile: Serialize model to .tex, compile to PDF. Returns PDF path.
• preview: Render a specific page as PNG file. Returns file path and dimensions.
• tex: Export the raw .tex source. Returns the LaTeX content.
