What it does
Create PDF is an agent skill from theexperiencecompany/gaia. Generate a polished, printable PDF: reports, letters, invoices, resumes, one-pagers. Use when the user wants a PDF document. Typst is the primary engine; LaTeX (tectonic) is the fallback for niche packages or specific academic/journal templates.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 12 other files, including scripts (for example `reference.md` and `scripts/build.sh`).
It sits in Documents & Office, covering PDF, LaTeX and Forms and invoices. It works with LaTeX. The repository describes itself as: Your proactive personal AI assistant & companion for daily productivity 🌎.
When your agent uses it
- The user wants a PDF document
- Tasks that involve PDF
- Tasks that involve LaTeX
Example prompts
- “/create-pdf”
Requirements
- A Bash shell
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Work in a job dir: mkdir -p ./scratch/pdf- and do everything there. Never build in ./artifacts/.
- Adapt the closest template: do not start blank. read the best-fit file from templates/ (see the list below, e.g. report.typ…
- Put data in a file if there's a lot of it, and reference it from the source, rather than inlining giant blobs.
- Build + validate with the bundled script (absolute path)
- Fix loop: on ERROR, read the message, edit the source, re-run. Cap at 5 attempts. If Typst keeps failing on the same construct, switch to…
- Deliver: once you get OK, move the final PDF into artifacts
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 16c9682. 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/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
bash
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
Create PDF loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 604 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
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 604 words (~1,348 tokens).
“The deliverable is a PDF. For Word use create-docx, for slides create-pptx, for spreadsheets create-spreadsheet.”
