TL;DR

This skill converts long course slides and lecture documents into concise study materials. It employs a controller workflow that segments documents by topic, extracts key formulas and concepts, and verifies coverage to ensure no critical material is missed.

Designed for students and educators, the process generates compiled PDFs with accurate page citations and bilingual terminology, distilling complex presentations into focused review guides.

Give it something to do.

Suggested first task

Create a scoped lecture review sheet

Uses summarize-slides

  • Replace <path-to-lecture.pdf> with the path to the source lecture PDF
  • The pdf companion skill must be installed and available
  • A locally installed and working xelatex is required for the compiled PDF
Use the summarize-slides skill with its required pdf companion skill on <path-to-lecture.pdf>. Summarize only Lectures 3 to 5 as an exam-review cheat sheet. Write primarily in Chinese, retain important English terms in parentheses, focus on formulas and core concepts, and include tight source-page citations where extraction quality permits. Create the default .tex and compiled .pdf artifacts in the standard output folder.
