Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

latex-posters scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 16d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/generate_schematic_ai.py, scripts/generate_schematic.py, scripts/review_poster.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

LaTeX Research Posters

Create a conference-sized PDF from scientific content, editable LaTeX, and verified figures. Use for new posters, paper-to-poster adaptation, institutional templates, and poster compilation or print preflight.

Choose the poster package

Package Use when Reviewed target
beamerposter Beamer blocks or institutional Beamer themes fit the project CTAN 1.13
tikzposter TikZ styling and automatically stacked blocks are useful CTAN 2.0
baposter A supplied project uses its named, relative-positioned boxes Archived class v2.0, 2011/11/26; upstream site unavailable at review

The three bundled templates were compiled locally with pdfLaTeX (TeX Live 2025) and inspected using Poppler 26.09.0. baposter was tested using the pinned archival source described in references/latex_poster_packages.md. Do not interpret an old stable package version as proof of current tagged-PDF support. Other reference snippets are illustrative building blocks unless explicitly tested; they require the indicated class, packages, actual data, and figure files.

Workflow

1. Establish the scientific content and output requirements

  • Record exact paper width, height, orientation, venue rules, and printer requirements.
  • Choose 1-3 main messages and the results needed to support them. A useful starting budget is 300-800 words with 3-5 figures; adjust to the audience and available space.
  • Preserve study design, sample sizes, units, effect sizes, uncertainty, limitations, and data provenance. Include the relevant citations, contact, and acknowledgments.
  • Use actual analysis outputs for plots and original research images for evidence. Do not use an image model to invent numerical charts, microscopy, spectra, or results.

2. Prepare and review figures

Prefer vector PDF for numerical plots, TikZ for precise diagrams, and suitable PNG/JPEG for photographs or conceptual artwork. Convert SVG to PDF before ordinary \includegraphics; SVG is not a directly supported pdfLaTeX image format.
