Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00046 | $0.00903 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00023 | $0.00451 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00181 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00090 |
Grade A, and why
pdf-ocr scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
PDF OCR via GLM-OCR + Ollama
Convert PDF files to markdown using local OCR. Each page is rendered to an image, processed through GLM-OCR running on Ollama, and the recognized text is assembled into a single markdown file.
Workflow
Phase 1: Dependency Check
Run these checks and report a status table. If any required dependency is missing, use AskUserQuestion to offer installation.
| Dependency | Check | Install |
|---|---|---|
| Ollama running | curl -sf http://127.0.0.1:11434/api/tags > /dev/null |
Cannot auto-start. Tell user to start Ollama and stop. |
glm-ocr model |
Check that Ollama tags response contains glm-ocr |
ollama pull glm-ocr |
pdftoppm |
which pdftoppm |
brew install poppler |
pdfinfo |
which pdfinfo |
Comes with poppler |
sips |
which sips |
Built-in on macOS. Warn if missing. |
Check all five in a single Bash call:
echo "=== Ollama ===" && curl -sf http://127.0.0.1:11434/api/tags && echo "" && echo "=== pdftoppm ===" && which pdftoppm && echo "=== pdfinfo ===" && which pdfinfo && echo "=== sips ===" && which sips
Parse the output:
- If curl fails: Ollama is not running. Stop and tell user to start Ollama.
- If
glm-ocris not in the tags list: ask user if they want to pull it (ollama pull glm-ocr). - If
pdftoppmorpdfinfomissing: ask user if they want to install poppler (brew install poppler). - If
sipsmissing: warn user (built-in on macOS, no auto-install).
If all checks pass, proceed to Phase 2.
Phase 2: Execute OCR
-
Validate the argument is a path to an existing
.pdffile. If no argument was provided, print usage and stop:Usage:
/pdf-ocr <path-to-pdf>Converts a PDF to markdown using local GLM-OCR via Ollama. -
Determine the output path: same directory as the PDF, same base name with
.mdextension. -
Get the page count to decide foreground vs background execution:
pdfinfo "<pdf_path>" | grep "^Pages:"
- Run the OCR script:
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

pdf-ocr is a skill published in the GitHub repository AlteredCraft/claude-code-plugins (13 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 46 tokens to every session and 903 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
