Methods note · feeding papers to LLMs · 2 rounds

Does it matter whether you feed an LLM TeX or PDF?

Hand the same paper to four identical agents under different sourcing regimes — TeX source, a PDF link, a forbidden-web local PDF, and a handed local PDF — ask each to rebuild the paper from scratch, and grade against the held-out source. Two papers: one math-heavy, one figure-heavy.
