What it does
Beamer Check is an agent skill from aspi6246/Claude-Code-Skills-for-Academics. Audit and fix Beamer slide decks for compilation errors, layout problems, and visual issues. Use this skill whenever the user says "check my slides", "fix my slides", "the slides don't compile", "text is running off the page", "slides look wrong", or after generating a Beamer deck to verify it before delivering. Also use when the user mentions overfull boxes, overlapping content, broken images, or any Beamer formatting issue.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/beamer_check.py`).
It sits in Documents & Office, covering LaTeX and Slides and decks. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Skills for academics.
When your agent uses it
- The user says check my slides
- The slides dont compile
- Text is running off the page
- Slides look wrong
Example prompts
- “check my slides”
- “fix my slides”
- “the slides don”
- “/beamer-check”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Automated Compilation Check
- Visual Inspection
- Fix
- Verify
- Report
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8a8f112. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
very-long-url.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Beamer Check loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 111 tokens; SKILL.md has 558 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 558 words (~1,720 tokens).
“This skill implements a compile → inspect → fix → verify loop for Beamer slide decks. The goal is to catch and fix all issues before the user has to open the PDF themselves.”
