compile

name	compile
description	Compile a single SOP or flowchart in the current project to PDF. For SOPs, runs `typst compile`. For flowcharts, first renders the Mermaid/D2 source to SVG (via mmdc or d2), then compiles the Typst wrapper that embeds it. Outputs to the project's `output/` directory by default. Use when the user wants to produce or refresh a single printable PDF.

compile

Render a single document to PDF. Project-scoped — operates on files in the current working directory.

Inputs to gather

1. Source path — the .typ, .mmd, or .d2 file to compile. Accept absolute or project-relative.
2. Output path (optional) — defaults to output/<source-stem>.pdf in the project root, creating output/ if missing.

What to do

If the source is a .typ file

1. Detect any sibling .mmd or .d2 files referenced by #image(...) in the Typst source. For each, render to SVG first (see flowchart steps below).
2. Run:

   typst compile <source.typ> <output.pdf>
   

3. Report the output path and file size.

If the source is a .mmd file (Mermaid)

mmdc -i <source.mmd> -o <source-stem>.svg

Then compile the sibling .typ wrapper if one exists, or just leave the SVG.

If the source is a .d2 file

d2 <source.d2> <source-stem>.svg

Same follow-up as Mermaid.

Pre-flight checks

• command -v typst — if missing, tell the user to install it (cargo install typst-cli or distro package).
• command -v mmdc — only required if any Mermaid sources exist; install via npm i -g @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli.
• command -v d2 — only required if any D2 sources exist.

Notes

• Don't auto-rebuild every doc in the project — this skill compiles one file. For batch-compiling everything in a project, the user can loop in shell or use bundle-binder (which compiles its inputs as a side effect).
• If typst compile fails, surface the error verbatim — Typst's error messages are good and the user needs to see them.
