overleaplisted

Bidirectional real-time sync between an Overleaf project and a local directory using the `overleap` Node.js CLI. Use when the user mentions Overleaf, overleap, "sync my Overleaf project", "edit Overleaf locally", "pull / push Overleaf", "compile Overleaf to PDF from CLI", or asks Claude to edit `.tex` files that should reflect on Overleaf in real time. Also use when the user wants to set up or refresh their Overleaf session cookie for the CLI. Authentication uses an `OVERLEAF_COOKIE` value, stored in a per-project `.env` file or in the environment.

# overleap Bidirectional real-time sync between an Overleaf project and a local directory via the `overleap` CLI (Node.js, [github.com/Axect/overleap](https://github.com/Axect/overleap)). `overleap` connects to Overleaf with the same Socket.IO + OT protocol the browser editor uses. Local edits are streamed to the server as OT operations; remote edits land on disk through atomic writes. Once a project is just local files, **anything that can edit a file can edit Overleaf** — Neovim, VS Code, scripts, and Claude. ## Trigger conditions Invoke this skill when the user says any of: - "sync my Overleaf project" / "start overleap" / "edit Overleaf locally" → `overleap sync` workflow (see **Sync workflow**) - "list my Overleaf projects" / "what projects do I have on Overleaf" → `overleap projects` - "compile this on Overleaf" / "build the PDF via Overleaf" / "compile this paper" *while in an overleap-synced directory* → `overleap compile` (do **not** run `pdflatex` / `latexmk` locally inside the sync dir — see **Path & file rules** below for why) - "set up overleap" / "configure overleap" / "save my Overleaf cookie" / `overleap` exits with `OVERLEAF_COOKIE is required` → **Setup flow** - "refresh the Overleaf cookie" / "my Overleaf session expired" → **Cookie refresh** in `references/cookie-setup.md` - The user asks Claude to edit `.tex` / `.bib` / `.sty` files in a directory that already has `.env` with `OVERLEAF_COOKIE` → assume sync is the intended flow; check whether a sync
