## What it does

The skill drives the Paper2All pipeline: it pulls content out of the paper with an LLM, generates layouts and refines them over several passes. Three outputs come out of it. Paper2Web builds a responsive multi-section page with interactive figures and tables. Paper2Video assembles slides, synthesises narration and syncs cursor movement; a talking head can be added through Hallo2. Paper2Poster produces a poster at any size, with templates, institution branding and a QR code for links.

First run needs Paper2All itself: clone the repo, create a conda environment on Python 3.11 and install `requirements.txt`. Put `OPENAI_API_KEY` in `.env`; logo search also wants `GOOGLE_API_KEY` and `GOOGLE_CSE_ID`. On the system side you need LibreOffice for document conversion and Poppler utilities for PDF handling.

Talking-head video needs an NVIDIA GPU with 48GB, so that mode is off the table on a laptop. The main pipeline runs through `pipeline_all.py`, the lighter video path through `pipeline_light.py`. The skill can call `scientific-schematics` to draw diagrams the paper is missing.
