What it does

Use when the user wants to turn an academic paper into a conference poster, poster outline, poster copy deck, poster layout brief, poster.yaml style draft, or Paper2Poster-ready generation package. Trigger for paper-to-poster requests involving PDF papers, arXiv links, manuscripts, PPTX posters, conference submissions, research summaries, or the Paper2Poster workflow.

Paper2Poster Poster

Use this skill when the goal is to turn a paper into a readable, credible, poster-ready package instead of a long prose summary.

Core behavior

Work from the source paper first. Prefer grounded extraction over creative rewriting.

Do not invent:

  • metrics that do not appear in the paper
  • figure content you have not seen
  • ablation claims that are not supported
  • author affiliations, funding, or venue details unless supplied

If key information is missing, say so explicitly and continue with labeled assumptions.

Default workflow

  1. Gather inputs.

Collect the paper source plus any constraints that are already available:

  • paper.pdf, arXiv link, markdown draft, or pasted paper text
  • venue, audience, poster dimensions, branding, deadline
  • whether the user wants poster copy only or also Paper2Poster execution assets

If the user gave no dimensions, use the defaults in references/poster-defaults.md.

  1. Choose the output mode.
  • Draft mode: produce poster copy, layout guidance, figure recommendations, and a concise runbook.
  • Execution mode: additionally prepare a poster.yaml draft, a Paper2Poster folder layout, and the exact command the user can run.
  1. Extract poster-worthy content from the paper.

Capture:

  • title and subtitle candidate
  • one-sentence paper claim
  • problem and motivation
  • method overview
  • core figures, tables, and diagrams worth featuring
  • strongest quantitative results
  • limitations, deployment notes, or future work if they matter
  1. Compress for poster reading.

Rewrite for scanability:

  • short headers
  • bullets over paragraphs
  • one idea per bullet
  • clear result statements with units and baselines when available
  • captions that can stand alone
  1. Build the poster package.

Unless the user asks for a different structure, produce:
