Full Analysis
  • [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: Recommends the installation of the latextrans and mathtranslate packages via pip to enable automated translation functionality.
  • [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: References the arxiv-latex-cleaner utility and documentation from Google Research's official public repository.
  • [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The skill documents the use of external translation backends (Google Translate, DeepL, OpenAI, Claude), which involves sending document text to third-party services for processing.
  • [PROMPT_INJECTION]: Detects a vulnerability surface for indirect prompt injection where malicious instructions inside a processed LaTeX document could influence the behavior of the translation engine.
  • Ingestion points: Reads content from local .tex files (paper.tex) and downloaded arXiv documents (translate_arxiv) as shown in SKILL.md.
  • Boundary markers: Absent; while math environments are protected by placeholders (e.g., __MATH_0__), there are no delimiters or instructions to the translation LLM to ignore embedded commands in the text.
  • Capability inventory: Includes file system access (read/write), shell command execution (latextrans, translate_arxiv), and network operations to translation APIs.
  • Sanitization: Absent; the provided scripts do not perform validation or sanitization of the text content to prevent the execution of embedded instructions by the LLM backend.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: Provides instructions for executing shell commands to install software and perform document translation tasks.
