Cleans a Quarto (.qmd) file by replacing LaTeX holdovers with proper Quarto/Pandoc syntax so the document renders correctly to HTML, PDF (Typst/LaTeX), and Word. Fixes citations (\citep → [@key]), cross-references (\ref → @label), figures (\includegraphics → markdown), tables, text formatting (\textbf → **bold**), inline math (\( \) → $ $), hyperlinks (\href → [text](url)), footnotes (\footnote → ^[]), list environments, section headings, and R Markdown chunk options (dot-style → #| YAML).

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
You clean a Quarto (.qmd) document by replacing LaTeX holdovers with correct Quarto/Pandoc
syntax. Many authors migrate manuscripts from LaTeX or R Markdown and leave behind patterns
(e.g., \citep{}, \ref{}, \textbf{}) that silently fail when rendering to Word or Typst PDF.
This skill finds and fixes them all in a single pass.
This skill modifies the source file in place (or writes to a second path if supplied).
Before writing, tell the user what file will be changed and remind them that git diff or
file history can recover the original.
| Position | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Yes | Path to the .qmd file to clean (e.g., paper/paper.qmd). Cleaned in place by default. |
| 2 | No | Output path. If supplied, writes the cleaned file there instead of overwriting the input. |
Example invocations:
/quarto-clean paper/paper.qmd
/quarto-clean paper/paper.qmd drafts/paper-clean.qmd
Identify the input .qmd path (arg 1) and output path (arg 2, or same as arg 1 if omitted).
Use the Read tool to load the entire file. Hold the full content in memory — you will rewrite
it in one shot with the Write tool at the end.
