translate-to-quarto

Translate a Beamer `.tex` lecture to a Quarto RevealJS `.qmd` mirror. Multi-phase: TikZ extraction → slide-by-slide translation → citation conversion → automatic QA parity check. Use when user says "translate to quarto", "port to revealjs", "make an html version", "convert this beamer to quarto", "mirror this lecture in qmd", or after a Beamer deck is ready for web publication. Output lands in `Quarto/`.

Beamer → Quarto Translation Workflow

Full translation of a Beamer LaTeX lecture to Quarto RevealJS HTML slides.

The Beamer .tex is the source of truth: the .qmd mirrors it, and corrections found during translation go back to the .tex (Phase 10).


Phase 0: Pre-Flight Checks

0A. Environment Parity Audit

Scan Beamer for all custom environments. Verify CSS equivalents exist in your theme SCSS. If any are missing, create them FIRST.

0B. TikZ Freshness Verification

Run /extract-tikz to verify SVGs match current Beamer source.

0C. RDS Data Inventory

List all RDS files needed for interactive charts.

0D. Citation Key Mapping

Extract all citations from Beamer, map to bibliography keys.

Phase 1: Pre-Translation Preparation

  • Read complete Beamer source, count frames
  • Inventory figures (TikZ → SVG, R plots → plotly, other → SVG)

Phase 2: Create QMD File with YAML Header

  • Standard RevealJS YAML with theme, logo, footer, bibliography
  • Setup chunk for R data loading if needed

Phase 3: Slide-by-Slide Translation

  • Delegate to beamer-translator agent
  • 1:1 frame-to-slide mapping
  • Verbatim math, environment parity, no font reduction

Phase 4: TikZ Diagram Integration

Reference extracted SVGs with 0-based indexing.

Phase 5: R Figure Integration (Plotly-First)

Interactive plotly from RDS data, static SVG for TikZ/complex figures.

Phase 6: First Render & Content Fidelity Check

Render, count slides, go through EVERY slide checking for issues.

Phase 6.5: Pedagogical Review

Run pedagogy-reviewer before visual polish.

Phase 7: Visual Polish

Semantic colors, transition slides, framing sentences.

Phase 8: Proofreading

Run /proofread on the QMD file.

Phase 9: Final Verification & Deployment

Render, then check the rendered output yourself (the rendered HTML, plus any screenshot or PDF export the user supplies) — every figure present, no overflow, all environments styled.

Phase 10: Beamer Source Sync

Apply any corrections back to Beamer source.

Phase 11: Parity QA + Documentation

Run /qa-quarto on the new mirror for Beamer↔Quarto parity. Then update the lecture row in CLAUDE.md and the session log, and tell the user the deck is ready for /commit — this skill does not commit or open a PR.

Turn an incoming set of findings — from an AI reviewer, a referee report, a code review, a linter, or a second model — into verified fixes, without letting a confident misread damage correct work. Every finding is a CANDIDATE until checked against the actual source. Use whenever you receive review comments, audit findings, or a critique you did not write yourself, especially when the reviewer is a model or when the volume is too large to check by feel.

Enforce the replication-protocol.md rule by cross-checking numeric claims in a manuscript against the actual R / Stata / Python outputs. Report PASS/FAIL per claim against tolerance thresholds. Use before submission and before releasing a replication package.

Before and after changing anything shared — a function's return value, a signature, a schema, a label set, a config default, a constant, a file format — find every consumer and actually run them. Catches the change that looks purely additive but silently breaks a contract in a file you never opened. Use when editing shared code, adding a field/column/return element, renaming, changing units or defaults, or touching a pipeline that produces reported numbers.

Snapshot the computational environment for a replication package — detects the analysis stack (R / Stata / Python) and emits the right lockfiles (renv.lock + sessionInfo.txt, requirements.txt / environment.yml / uv.lock, Stata version + ado package list), records seeds and RNG kind, optionally writes a pinning Dockerfile, and produces a paste-ready "Computational requirements" block. Use when user says "capture the environment", "snapshot my dependencies", "pin the versions", "make a renv.lock / requirements.txt", "make this byte-reproducible", or before releasing a replication package to openICPSR / the AEA Data Editor.

Stress-test a finding against the choices you did not make. Enumerates the discrete forks a competent analyst could have taken (measure definition, sample filter, control set, clustering level, weighting, functional form), runs the specification grid, and reports the distribution rather than a point estimate — then attacks the identifying assumption with named, computable sensitivity statistics. Use when the user says "is this robust", "challenge this result", "specification curve", "multiverse", "how sensitive is this", "what if I'd used a different measure", "stress-test my estimate", or before a result becomes a headline claim. NOT a reviewer of prose or code — it challenges the CLAIM.

Save a structured state snapshot before stopping or handing off. Captures the active plan, recent decisions, file pointers (with line numbers), open questions, and the next 1–3 actions into a checkpoint file under `quality_reports/checkpoints/`. Optionally proposes `[LEARN]` entries to add to MEMORY.md. Use when user says "checkpoint", "save state", "snapshot before I stop", "where am I", "wrap up the session for handoff", or before a long break / model switch / collaborator handoff. Companion to (NOT replacement for) the narrative session-log workflow.
