what is gen-pseudocode-skill fr?

gen-pseudocode-skill is a Claude custom skill (a set of instructions and reference files you install into your Claude-powered project) designed to help AI and machine learning researchers convert messy code or paper descriptions into clean, publication-ready algorithm pseudocode for academic papers. The problem it addresses is the gap between how algorithms look in actual source code, full of framework-specific API calls, data loading boilerplate, and implementation details, and how they should look in a journal or conference paper, where they are expressed in clean mathematical notation. For example, code like "optimizer.zero_grad(), loss.backward()" becomes concise LaTeX math notation describing the gradient update step. The skill guides Claude to take inputs such as a paper's methodology section, supplementary appendices, or source code, and produce compilable LaTeX using the algorithm2e package (a standard LaTeX package for typesetting algorithm boxes). It includes a notation mapping table that converts programming terms to their mathematical equivalents, and a style guide covering conventions for different publication venues like NeurIPS, ICML, AAAI, and medical informatics journals. The repository also includes a Python script that compiles the generated LaTeX into a PDF so you can immediately verify the output is correctly formatted.
