  LaTeX editor with real-time Overleaf sync, themed in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_latte">Cosmic Latte</a>.
</p>

## Features

- **Real-time Overleaf sync** — WebSocket-based OT collaboration, live co-editing
- **Bidirectional file sync** — edit `.tex` files on disk (e.g. with Claude Code in the integrated terminal) and changes sync to Overleaf automatically
- **Claude Code MCP integration** — built-in MCP server lets Claude Code read comments, compile, debug, and chat with collaborators
- **Local LaTeX compilation** — compile PDFs locally with `latexmk`, no Overleaf compile limits
- **PDF viewer** — built-in viewer with SyncTeX forward/inverse search, pinch-to-zoom, text search
- **Search** — in-file find/replace (Cmd+F), multi-file search (Cmd+Shift+F), PDF text search
- **LaTeX autocomplete** — commands, environments, `\ref`, `\cite`, file paths
- **Comments & review** — inline comment highlights with review panel
- **Collaborator cursors** — see other editors' positions in real-time
- **Project chat** — real-time chat panel
- **Integrated terminal** — built-in terminal for CLI tools

## Install

Download the latest `.dmg` from [Releases](https://github.com/YurenHao0426/lattex/releases).

> **Note:** This is an unsigned build. On first launch, right-click → Open, or allow it in System Settings → Privacy & Security.

### Requirements

- macOS (Apple Silicon)
- [TeX Live](https://www.tug.org/texlive/) or [MacTeX](https://www.tug.org/mactex/) for local compilation

## Claude Code Integration

LatteX has built-in [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) integration via MCP (Model Context Protocol). When you open a project, LatteX automatically:

1. Syncs all project files to a local temp directory
2. Writes a `.mcp.json` config that registers the LatteX MCP server
3. Writes `.claude/CLAUDE.md` with project context and tool documentation
4. Pre-approves all MCP tool permissions in `.claude/settings.json`

### Usage

1. Open a project in LatteX
2. Open the integrated terminal (Cmd+`)
3. Run `claude` — Claude Code auto-discovers the MCP server and has full access to the project

Claude Code can then:
- **Edit `.tex` files** directly on disk — changes sync to Overleaf in real-time via bidirectional file sync
- **Read and respond to comments** — `get_comments`, `reply_to_comment`, `resolve_comment`
- **Compile and debug** — `compile_latex`, `get_compile_errors`, `get_compile_warnings`
- **Use project chat** — `get_chat_messages`, `send_chat_message`
- **List project files** — `list_project_files`

### Available MCP Tools

| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `get_comments` | Read comments, optionally filtered by file |
| `resolve_comment` | Resolve a comment thread |
| `reopen_comment` | Reopen a resolved comment |
| `reply_to_comment` | Reply to a comment thread |
| `delete_comment` | Permanently delete a comment thread |
| `get_chat_messages` | Read project chat history |
| `send_chat_message` | Send a message to project chat |
| `list_project_files` | List all project files with sizes |
| `compile_latex` | Trigger server-side LaTeX compilation |
| `get_compile_errors` | Get parsed errors from last compile |
| `get_compile_warnings` | Get parsed warnings from last compile |
| `get_compile_log` | Get raw compile log output |

### Example Workflow

```
> claude

You: Review the comments on this paper and address the feedback

Claude: [calls get_comments] I see 3 comments...
        [edits sections/intro.tex to address feedback]
        [calls reply_to_comment] "Revised the introduction as suggested."
        [calls resolve_comment]
        [calls compile_latex] Compilation successful, no errors.
```

No configuration needed — everything is set up automatically when you open a project.

## Development

```bash
npm install
npm run dev
```

### Build

```bash
npm run build
