SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates version drift and manual copy-paste work between local ARIS paper working copies (used for audits and local editing) and Overleaf cloud projects used for collaborative editing, ensuring both copies stay aligned without risking lost work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Two-way synchronization: Pull changes from Overleaf to local or push local edits to Overleaf using the official Git bridge.
  • Conflict and security guards: Includes pre-commit hooks to block accidental Overleaf token leaks, TTY checks for secure setup, and conflict resolution protocols to avoid overwriting collaborator work.
  • Use case: A research team can run ARIS claim and citation audits on their local paper copy while a co-author edits the draft in Overleaf, syncing changes safely between both environments.

Quick Start

Use the overleaf-sync skill to pull the latest Overleaf edits into your local paper directory for review before running ARIS audits.
