Academic LaTeX Layout
LaTeX layout and float-placement router for academic papers. Optimize figure/table placement by semantic adjacency and compiled PDF evidence, not by source-level hacks.
Router Protocol
Read manifest.yaml.
Read every file listed under always_load.
Detect exactly one mode from the manifest.
Echo the selected mode before executing.
Reach for references/ only when the manifest condition is satisfied.
Modes
Mode
Use when
draft-to-latex-layout
Draft + template + existing figures/tables must become LaTeX with semantically placed floats
layout-repair
Existing .tex project has float pileups, text/figure drift, blank areas, or two-column layout problems
layout-audit
User wants diagnosis only, without edits
Boundaries
Do not generate data figures; use academic-figure. Do not broadly polish prose; use academic-polishing. Do not decide which figures the paper should contain.
Completion Criteria
Template constraints identified or bounded.
Figure/table semantic map produced.
Direct edits follow risk policy.
Compile and PDF preview loop run when feasible; otherwise bounded assessment explains the blocker.
