Octree – open-source AI LaTeX Editor

Generate Agent can spit out a complete, compilable LaTeX paper (sections, abstract, citation scaffolding, placeholders for figures/tables) from one prompt and also returns a compiled PDF — that is an unusually concrete AI UX for research writing. It also promises TikZ generation and an inline PDF preview, which are genuinely useful. My caveat: automated citation/text generation risks hallucinations and the real value will depend on model provenance, reproducibility settings, and how well it integrates with existing citation workflows.
