| description | ARS academic-paper `format-convert` mode — convert to LaTeX / DOCX / PDF / Markdown |
| disable-model-invocation | true |
| user-invocable | true |
The user invoked /ars-format-convert (port of the Claude Code slash command). First call the skill tool with name academic-paper to load that skill (unless it is already loaded in this session), then execute the mode it specifies:
Trigger the academic-paper skill in format-convert mode. Converts a paper between LaTeX, DOCX (via Pandoc), PDF, or Markdown, and converts citation styles between major formats. Fidelity spectrum, low oversight.
Mode reference: MODE_REGISTRY.md § academic-paper.
Skill entry: academic-paper/SKILL.md.
Note: this command was ported from the ARS Claude Code plugin (Imbad0202/academic-research-skills, CC-BY-NC-4.0). The deterministic tooling it references (scripts/*.py, MODE_REGISTRY.md, shared/) ships in the upstream repo — clone it alongside this plugin if you need script-based features such as the citation verification gate.
