Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: typst.app.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows an AI agent to generate documents using Typst, a modern typesetting system designed to be simpler and faster than LaTeX. It enables the creation of professional-looking technical and mathematical content, including exporting documents as PDF, HTML, or PNG images. The skill supports compiling Typst code, watching for changes and recompiling automatically, and extracting metadata from documents.

When to use it

  • Creating academic papers, reports, or presentations requiring precise formatting.
  • Generating visually appealing technical documentation with mathematical equations.
  • Converting existing content from Markdown or LaTeX into a modern Typst document.
  • Extracting specific data or information embedded within Typst documents.
  • Quickly producing visual assets like charts and diagrams as PNG images.

Key capabilities

  • Compiles Typst code to PDF, HTML, and PNG formats.
  • Supports watching for file changes and automatic recompilation.
  • Allows extraction of metadata from Typst documents using queries.
  • Provides methods for verifying output (HTML, PNG, text content).
  • Enables searching for and importing packages from the Typst Universe.

Example prompts

  • "Generate a PDF document with the title 'My Report' and some basic content."
  • "Compile this Typst code into an HTML file."
  • "Export this Typst document as a PNG image."
  • "Find Typst packages related to data visualization."

Tips & gotchas

  • Familiarize yourself with the basics of Typst syntax and structure by consulting basics.md and types.md.
  • Import paths are resolved relative to the current file, so ensure they are correct.
  • The skill's functionality is focused on generating documents from Typst code; it’s a coding assistant for Typst development rather than a general-purpose document creation tool.
