Academic Page Generation

Turn a paper PDF into a polished HTML project page with iterative visual refinement.

Available Tools

Workflow (follow in order)

Step 1 - Parse

Call parse_paper with the user PDF path.

• The tool returns markdown_path and a figures array.
• Each figure has: num (Figure number), caption (full caption text from the paper), and path (high-res screenshot of the complete figure region).
• Read the markdown file to understand the paper content.
• The figures are page-rendered crops that exactly match what you see in the PDF — not raw embedded bitmaps.

Step 2 - Plan content

From parsed markdown:

1. Remove references section.
2. Keep only figures/tables that support understanding of method/results.
3. Produce section plan:

• title
• authors
• affiliation
• dynamic sections based on paper content

1. Generate concise, web-first content for each section.

Step 3 - Select template

Call match_template with the user's style preferences (or defaults).

The tool returns ranked template candidates with paths. You MUST use these templates.

Step 4 - Read template and generate HTML

CRITICAL: Do NOT write HTML/CSS from scratch. You MUST base your page on the selected template.

1. Read the top-ranked template's index.html using read_file to understand its full structure.
2. Read the template's CSS file(s) (usually in assets/ subfolder) to understand its styling.
3. Copy the template directory structure into the output folder:

• Copy CSS/JS/font files from the template to the output folder.
• Copy figure images from figures_dir (returned by parse_paper) into the output folder.

1. Generate a new index.html that:

• Reuses the template's HTML structure (header, nav, sections, footer layout).
• References the same CSS file(s) — do NOT inline CSS.
• Fills in the paper content (title, authors, abstract, method, results, figures).
• For each figure, use the caption from parse_paper output and set <img src> to the figure file.
• Updates image src paths to use relative paths.
• Keeps all media paths relative.

Step 5 - Visual review loop (max 2 rounds)

1. Call render_html on generated page.
2. Call review_html_visual on screenshot.
3. Apply targeted revisions from review.
4. Repeat if necessary, max 2 rounds.

Step 6 - Table replacement

If table images are present:

1. Call extract_table_html per table image.
2. Replace corresponding <img ...> with generated <table>...</table>.
3. Re-render once to confirm final visual quality.

Step 7 - Human feedback

Ask user for final adjustments. If feedback is provided:

1. Apply requested edits.
2. Re-render and confirm.

Important Rules

• NEVER generate HTML/CSS from scratch. Always base the page on a real template.
• Keep all outputs under workspace paths.
• Never destroy existing template files; write to a new project output folder.
• Use simple, robust HTML/CSS changes over risky rewrites.
• Prefer readability and information hierarchy over flashy layout.
