Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 5.1 | $0.00135 | $0.02304 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00054 | $0.00922 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00461 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00230 |
Grade B, and why
document-converter scanned grade B 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 1mo 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 230 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
document-converter
Purpose
Convert documents between formats and perform PDF operations using local, free, offline tools. No API key, no cost, no internet required. Supports Office formats, PDF manipulation, image-to-PDF, and OCR using LibreOffice, ghostscript, pdftk, tesseract, and imagemagick.
When to Use
- Converting Office documents (DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, ODP, ODT) to PDF or HTML
- Converting PDF pages to images (PNG, JPG, TIFF) or images to PDF
- PDF operations: merge multiple PDFs, split by page range, rotate pages, encrypt or decrypt
- OCR: extract searchable text from scanned PDFs or image files
- Any document format conversion that does not involve video or audio
Do NOT use for:
- Video or audio format conversion (use a dedicated media skill)
- Converting code between programming languages
- Simple markdown → HTML (use pandoc directly)
- Structured text extraction from PDFs (use
docling-converterinstead)
Step 0: Discovery — Detect Available Tools
Before any conversion, detect which tools are installed and identify the operating system:
# Detect OS
uname -s # Darwin = macOS, Linux = Linux; on Windows use 'ver' or check $OS
# Check each tool
libreoffice --version 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT FOUND"
gs --version 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT FOUND"
pdftk --version 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT FOUND"
tesseract --version 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT FOUND"
convert -version 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT FOUND" # ImageMagick
If a required tool is missing, show the install command for the user's OS before proceeding:
| Tool | macOS | Linux (apt) | Windows |
|---|---|---|---|
| LibreOffice | brew install --cask libreoffice |
sudo apt install libreoffice |
winget install TheDocumentFoundation.LibreOffice |
| Ghostscript | brew install ghostscript |
sudo apt install ghostscript |
winget install ArtifexSoftware.GhostScript |
| pdftk | brew install pdftk-java |
sudo apt install pdftk |
winget install PDFTechnologies.PDFtk |
| Tesseract | brew install tesseract |
sudo apt install tesseract-ocr |
winget install UB-Mannheim.TesseractOCR |
| ImageMagick | brew install imagemagick |
sudo apt install imagemagick |
winget install ImageMagick.ImageMagick |
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.

document-converter is a skill published in the GitHub repository ericgandrade/claude-superskills (84 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 135 tokens to every session and 2,304 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
