Why TeXRA?
AI scientists need more than a chat window. TeXRA keeps research grounded in reproducible workflows and transparent reasoning:
- Reliable scientific loops – every run is captured with logs, diffs, and audit trails so you and your collaborators can verify changes.
- Two kinds of agents – use workflow agents (
polish,correct,draw) for structured tasks, or chat with interactive agents (chat,search,research) that can edit files, search literature, and run computations. - Integrated verification tools – generate visual diffs, count words, verify math with Wolfram, and check compilation directly from the agent run.
- Literature at your fingertips – search arXiv, Crossref, and your Zotero library without leaving VS Code.
Real-World Examples
Deadline crunch. A PhD student has 48 hours to polish a 30-page thesis chapter. She selects the chapter, picks the
polishagent, and writes: "Improve clarity and flow for a machine-learning audience. Keep all math intact." Two minutes later she's reviewing a colour-coded diff of every change.
Conference talk. A postdoc needs slides for a workshop next week. He opens the
presenteragent, points it at his paper, and asks for a 15-slide Beamer deck with TikZ diagrams. The agent reads his codebase, drafts slides, compiles them, and visually checks every page.
Literature sweep. A new collaborator joins the project and needs to get up to speed. She opens the
searchagent and asks: "Find the five most-cited papers on physics-informed neural networks from 2022-2024." In seconds she has titles, abstracts, and BibTeX entries.
Key Capabilities
📝 Smart Editing & Polishing

🎨 TikZ Figure Generation
Create complex TikZ diagrams from natural language descriptions or enhance existing figures. TeXRA handles the code generation and compilation.
"Draw a flowchart for..." → `\begin{tikzpicture}...` 🔄 Document Transformation
Effortlessly convert papers into slides (paper2slide), posters (paper2poster), or build interactive presentations with the presenter agent.
Paper Abstract → `Beamer Slides Outline` 📊 LaTeX-Aware Processing
Understands LaTeX structure, math, citations, and environments. Includes integrated `latexdiff` for visualizing changes and `texcount` for analysis.

🧩 Multi-File Projects
Handle books, theses, or papers split across multiple files. Apply changes consistently or target specific sections.
[ch1.tex, ch2.tex] → [ch1_polished.tex, ch2_polished.tex]🖼️ Multimodal Understanding
Leverage vision-capable models to analyze images, figures, and PDFs directly within your workflow.
