What it does
Typst is an agent skill from lucifer1004/claude-skill-typst. Typst document creation and package development. Use when: (1) Working with .typ files, (2) User mentions typst, typst.toml, or typst-cli, (3) Creating or using Typst packages, (4) Developing document templates, (5) Converting Markdown/LaTeX to Typst
Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 49 other files, including scripts (for example `academic.md`, `advanced.md` and `agents/typst-package-qa.md`).
It sits in Documents & Office, covering LaTeX. It works with LaTeX. The repository describes itself as: Typst skill for agents. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Working with .typ files
- User mentions typst
- Using Typst packages
- Developing document templates
Example prompts
- “/typst”
Requirements
- Python 3
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3d4fbe9. 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/, which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3pdftotextbrewcargowinget
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
typst.app
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
Typst loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 548 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.

Typst
This skill targets Typst 0.15+. For Typst 0.14.2, use the typst-0.14.2
repository tag for the previous skill snapshot.
Compilation
typst compile document.typ # compile once → PDF
typst compile document.typ output.pdf # explicit output path
typst compile document.typ -f png # export as PNG image
typst compile src/main.typ --root . # set project root for /path imports
typst watch document.typ # recompile on change
typst eval --in document.typ 'query(heading).len()' # Typst 0.15+ introspectionFor command options beyond this quick reference, see cli.md.
Agent verification — choose by what you need to check (see debug.md for details):
| Method | Command | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| HTML export | typst compile doc.typ /dev/stdout -f html --features html 2>/dev/null | Text content, structure, headings, tables |
| PNG export | typst compile doc.typ page-{p}.png -f png | Visual layout, alignment, spacing, fonts |
| pdftotext | typst compile doc.typ && pdftotext doc.pdf - | Fallback for page-specific content |
Minimal Document
#set page(paper: "a4", margin: 2cm)
#set text(size: 11pt)
= Title

Starting a new document? Copy the closest recipe from Examples below — it's faster than starting blank and each row names the docs to read next.
| When you need to... | Read |
|---|---|
| Learn syntax, imports, functions, control flow | basics.md |
| Learn data types, operators, string/array methods | types.md |
| Style pages, headings, figures, layout | styling.md |
| Tables, grids, cell spans, borders, data tables | tables.md |
| Academic papers, bibliography, theorems, equations | academic.md |
| Convert from Markdown or LaTeX | conversion.md |
| Upgrade older Typst code, 0.15 breaking changes | migration.md |
| Use Typst CLI commands and build options | cli.md |
| Extract data from documents, multi-pass builds | query.md |
Developing Packages and Templates
| When you need to... | Read |
|---|---|
State, counters, in-document query(), XML | advanced.md |
| CLI introspection, metadata export, multi-pass | query.md |
| Create a reusable template function | template.md |
| Create or publish a package | package.md |
| Verify output (HTML/PNG/pdftotext, repr) | debug.md |
| Profile performance (--timings, hotspots) | perf.md |
basics.md and types.md are also the foundation for developers.
Finding Packages
Search the embedded index of Typst Universe packages (updated weekly):
python3 scripts/search-packages.py "what you need"
python3 scripts/search-packages.py "chart" --category visualization
python3 scripts/search-packages.py --category cv --top 5
python3 scripts/search-packages.py --list-categoriesCommon Errors
| Error | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| "unknown variable" | Undefined identifier | Check spelling, ensure #let before use |
| "expected X, found Y" | Type mismatch | Check function signature in docs |
| "file not found" | Bad import path | Paths resolve relative to current file |
| "unknown font" | Font not installed | Use system fonts or web-safe alternatives |
| "maximum function call depth exceeded" | Deep recursion | Use iteration instead |
| "can only be used when context is known" | Missing context wrapper | Wrap in context { ... } |
| "unexpected argument" | = instead of : for args | Named args use : syntax: func(name: value) |
| "variables from outside are read-only" | Mutating captured variable | Use loop accumulation or state() — see advanced.md |
| "expected content, found string" (or vice versa) | Content/string type mismatch | Use [#str-var] to embed string in content |
| set/show rule has no effect | Rule placed after content | Place set/show rules before the content they target |
