Description
latex-posters is an agent skill for creating research posters in LaTeX, in conference size, with editable source and checked figures. It covers new posters, adapting a paper into a poster, working with institutional templates, and compiling the poster and preparing it for print. The skill helps you choose among three poster packages. beamerposter suits projects where Beamer blocks or institutional Beamer themes fit, and the reviewed version is CTAN 1.13. tikzposter suits layouts that benefit from TikZ styling and automatically stacked blocks, and the reviewed version is CTAN 2.0. baposter suits a supplied project that uses named, relatively positioned boxes. That class is archived at version 2.0 from 26 November 2011, and its upstream site was unavailable at review. Use it when you need a poster for a conference, an academic presentation or a multi-column scientific layout. The skill is part of the k-dense-ai scientific agent skills repository on GitHub, which has about 49,600 stars. The listing shows it as free, and it has about 1,900 installs. Its security audits show passes from Gen Agent Trust Hub, Socket and Snyk.…
