Compile LaTex & Typst into PDF with TypeTex

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

The skill matches its stated purpose, but it sends document source and attachments to an external TypeTex API, so users should avoid sensitive documents unless they trust that service.

This appears to be a straightforward remote compiler. Before installing or using it, decide whether the documents you compile may contain private or regulated information, because the source and attached files are sent to the TypeTex API. For public or low-sensitivity documents, the requested behavior is proportionate to the skill's purpose.

Findings (2)

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

If a document contains confidential text, images, or metadata, that content may be visible to the remote compilation service.

Why it was flagged

The core workflow sends user document source and optional files to a public external API. This is disclosed and purpose-aligned, but the artifacts do not describe privacy, retention, or provider-side handling.

Recommendation

Only compile documents you are comfortable sending to this provider, or verify the provider's privacy and retention practices before using it for sensitive material.

What this means

Users have less information for confirming who operates the service or reviewing its implementation.

Why it was flagged

The skill relies on a remote service, but the registry metadata does not provide a source repository or homepage for independent provenance review.

Recommendation

Prefer using this with non-sensitive documents unless you can independently verify the TypeTex service and trust its operator.
