nutrient-pdf-mcp-server CLAUDE.md

nutrient-pdf-mcp-server CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from PSPDFKit/nutrient-pdf-mcp-server. It costs 758 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository-specific instructions for a PDF MCP server that lets agents inspect the internal object structure of PDF files. It explains the project, its architecture, and tools for navigating and resolving PDF objects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Setting up the project and investigating PDF object trees, including selected paths or objects, with shallow or deeper resolution.
Why use it?
It helps an agent understand how to use and modify the server while keeping large PDF structures manageable through on-demand loading.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

nutrient-pdf-mcp-server CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Nutrient PDF MCP Server - Claude Memory

Project Overview

This is the Nutrient PDF MCP Server, a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for investigating PDF object trees with lazy loading support. The server allows LLMs to explore PDF structure efficiently by providing selective resolution of indirect objects and path-based navigation.

Key Features

  • Lazy Loading: Only resolves indirect objects on demand to reduce token usage
  • Path Navigation: Supports dot notation paths like Pages.Kids.0 for drilling down
  • Two Resolution Modes: Shallow (single object) and deep (with dependencies)
  • Type Safety: Comprehensive TypedDict definitions for all PDF objects
  • Error Handling: Custom exception hierarchy with detailed error messages

Architecture

  • pdf_mcp/server.py - Main MCP server with two tools
  • pdf_mcp/parser.py - Core PDF parsing logic with pypdf integration
  • pdf_mcp/types.py - Type definitions for PDF objects and responses
  • pdf_mcp/exceptions.py - Custom exception hierarchy

MCP Tools

  1. get_pdf_object_tree - Get JSON representation of PDF structure
    • Parameters: pdf_path, mode (lazy/full), path (optional), object_id (optional)
  2. resolve_indirect_object - Resolve specific indirect objects by ID
    • Parameters: pdf_path, object_id, depth (shallow/deep)

Development

  • Python 3.10+ required (for MCP library pattern matching)
  • Use make commands for common tasks:
    • make test - Run test suite (64 tests)
    • make test-cov - Run tests with coverage analysis
    • make quality - Run all quality checks (format, lint, type check, test)
    • make format - Auto-format code with black/isort
    • make lint - Check code with ruff
    • make typecheck - Type check with mypy

Quality Standards

  • 76% test coverage with comprehensive test suite
  • Full type checking with mypy (custom overrides for pypdf interactions)
  • Modern Python syntax (union types with |, lowercase builtins)
  • Code formatting with black, isort, ruff

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
