LaTeX editing with Codex, Claude Code, and Antigravity.
TexMacgic is a free app. AI provider accounts and subscriptions are separate.
Use an agent inside your LaTeX project to review source, compile, inspect diagnostics, and check the PDF. TexMacgic connects separately installed command-line providers to editor and document tools through MCP.

Setup & support →Agent setup and privacy
Install and sign into your chosen command-line provider separately. Power User mode also requires a user-started adapter setup. Before the first request, TexMacgic asks permission to send the provider your prompt and relevant project context, attachments, diagnostics, or tool results. Processing follows your provider account, settings, and privacy terms. You can revoke permission in Settings.
