Researcher uses Claude to auto-fix LaTeX figure offsets: "ridiculously painless"

AI researcher alfcnz shares a Claude Code session where the model fixes LaTeX figure/margin-note offsets in a book draft: it writes its own helper scripts and utilities, repositions captions across 17 figures with 0.0mm median offset, checks label collisions and cropping, revisits previously botched figures, and confirms each fix via an interactive preview UI. The author calls it "ridiculously painless."
