cv-sync

name

cv-sync

description

Syncs the academic CV webpage (/cv/) with the LaTeX source of truth at resume/cv.tex. Use when the user says 'update the CV page', 'sync the CV', 'my CV page is out of date', 'I updated my CV', or asks to reflect cv.tex changes on the website. Reads resume/cv.tex, extracts all sections, updates src/data/pages/cv.ts with structured content, and updates src/pages/cv.astro to render any new sections.

CV Sync

Source of Truth

resume/cv.tex is authoritative. Always read it fresh before making changes.

Data Layer

All CV content for the webpage lives in src/data/pages/cv.ts. The page at src/pages/cv.astro reads from it. Edit cv.ts to change what appears on /cv/.

See references/cv-structure.md for the full TypeScript schema and the section-by-section mapping from LaTeX → TypeScript fields.

Workflow

1. Read resume/cv.tex in full
2. Parse each section using the mapping in references/cv-structure.md
3. Update src/data/pages/cv.ts — replace changed content, add new sections
4. Update src/pages/cv.astro — add render blocks for any sections not yet displayed
5. Run pnpm check to verify no TypeScript errors

LaTeX Parsing Notes

• \item[date] \tab{} content — date is the bracketed label, content follows
• \href{url}{text} — extract both; use as { url, text } for links
• \textbf{text} — bold; strip markup for plain text fields
• \section*{NAME} / \subsection*{NAME} — section and subsection markers
• Parenthetical draft notes like (I have deep interest... ?) in personal statement → omit from webpage
• \textit{*In preparation} → set inPreparation: true on the item
• The page offers two links that open in a new tab: /cv.pdf (full CV) and /resume.pdf (condensed resume). Both are copied from resume/ to public/ by scripts/copy-resume-pdfs.js during prebuild.
