# LaTeX Research Skill
Thin wrapper that delegates LaTeX research to `latex-research-agent` subagent.
## Trigger Conditions
This skill activates when:
- Task language is "latex"
- Research involves LaTeX documentation
- LaTeX-specific research is needed
## Execution Flow
### Stage 1: Input Validation
Validate task_number exists.
### Stage 2: Preflight Status Update
Update status to "researching" BEFORE invoking subagent.
### Stage 3: Prepare Delegation Context
Include task_context, focus_prompt, metadata_file_path.
### Stage 4: Invoke Subagent
Use Task tool with subagent_type: "latex-research-agent".
### Stage 5: Parse Subagent Return
Read metadata from `specs/{N}_{SLUG}/.return-meta.json`.
### Stage 6: Update Task Status (Postflight)
Update state.json and TODO.md based on result.
### Stage 7: Link Artifacts
Add research artifact to state.json.
### Stage 8: Git Commit
Commit changes with session ID.
### Stage 9: Return Brief Summary
## Error Handling
### Input Validation Errors
Return immediately if task not found.
### Metadata File Missing
Keep status as "researching", report error.
### Git Commit Failure
Non-blocking: Log failure but continue.
## Return Format
Brief text summary (NOT JSON).Related Skills
