AI connectors
The LaTeX editor your AI assistant can work in
Manulyx is an online LaTeX editor with connectors for ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. Ask your assistant to start a paper in your journal’s template, tighten an abstract, add references or fix compile errors: it works directly in your Manulyx project, and you and your co-authors see each change appear live, as a tracked change you accept or reject.
Free on every plan. Connector address: https://manulyx.com/api/mcp

What an assistant can do in Manulyx
- Start a paper in a journal’s own template (thousands of journals) or as a plain article, and hand you the link.
- Read and search your projects and files, one project or all of them.
- Edit the LaTeX with small, exact replacements, so the rest of the file is untouched.
- Cite: find a paper at Crossref, add it by DOI to the bibliography the document uses, and cite it.
- Add figures you attach in the chat, or from a public address.
- Compile the PDF, read the errors and fix them.
You stay in charge
- The assistant acts as you, with your role in each project, and only after you approve the connection.
- Per project, switch an assistant off, let it only read, and choose whether its edits are tracked.
- A restore point is saved before an assistant’s first edit, so a whole session can be undone from History.
- It cannot delete, share or submit a project, or change who has access.

Other tools: Manulyx is a remote MCP server with OAuth sign-in at https://manulyx.com/api/mcp. Gemini CLI and any client that accepts such a server can connect with it.
Questions
Is there a LaTeX editor that ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini can work in?
Yes. Manulyx is an online LaTeX editor with connectors for ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. Once connected, the assistant can read your projects, edit the LaTeX, add references and compile the PDF, and every change appears live in the Manulyx editor.
What is the Manulyx connector address?
https://manulyx.com/api/mcp. It is a remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) server with OAuth sign-in. In ChatGPT and Claude you can also find Manulyx in the app or connector directory instead of pasting it.
Does the assistant see all my projects?
It sees only what you can see, with your role in each project, and only after you approve the connection. In each project you can switch an assistant off entirely, and choose whether it may change files or only read them.
Can I undo what an assistant changed?
Yes. Edits arrive as tracked changes you accept or reject, and Manulyx saves a restore point before an assistant's first edit, so the whole session can be undone from History.
Does it cost extra?
No. Connecting is free on every Manulyx plan, including Free. The assistant's own usage is part of your ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini plan.
Which other assistants and tools can connect?
Claude Code and Gemini CLI connect from the command line with the same address. Any other assistant or editor that accepts a remote MCP server with OAuth sign-in can use https://manulyx.com/api/mcp as well.
