pdf_split

pdf_split is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ericwang915/PythonClaw. It costs 57 tokens per session (494 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for dividing one PDF document into several PDF files by page. It can extract a selected page or range, split every page separately, or make equal-sized page groups.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to extract pages from reports, create one PDF per page, or divide a document into chunks of a chosen number of pages.
Why use it?
Large PDFs can be awkward to share or process when only some pages are needed. This separates the relevant pages without merging documents, reading text, or changing formats.

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

pdf_split 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (split_pdf.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

What it actually says

PDF Split Skill

Split a PDF file into multiple smaller PDFs by page ranges.

When to Use

✅ USE this skill when:

  • "Split this PDF into individual pages"
  • "Extract pages 5-10 from report.pdf"
  • "Break this PDF into 3 parts"
  • "Get page 7 as a separate PDF"
  • User wants to extract or separate pages from a PDF

When NOT to Use

❌ DON'T use this skill when:

  • Merging multiple PDFs → use pdf_merge
  • Reading/extracting text → use pdf_reader
  • Creating new PDFs → use pdf_writer
  • Converting to images → use pdf_convert

Usage/Commands

python {skill_path}/split_pdf.py INPUT_PDF [options]

Options:

  • --pages "1-5" — extract a specific page range to a single output file
  • --each — split into one PDF per page
  • --every N — split into chunks of N pages each
  • --output DIR — output directory (default: same as input)
  • --prefix NAME — filename prefix for output files (default: input filename)
  • --format json — output result as JSON

Examples

  • "Extract pages 5-10" → python {skill_path}/split_pdf.py doc.pdf --pages 5-10
  • "Split into individual pages" → python {skill_path}/split_pdf.py doc.pdf --each
  • "Split into chunks of 5 pages" → python {skill_path}/split_pdf.py doc.pdf --every 5 --output ./parts/
  • "Get page 3" → python {skill_path}/split_pdf.py doc.pdf --pages 3

Notes

  • Install dependency: pip install PyPDF2
  • Page numbers are 1-indexed
  • Output files are named {prefix}_p{start}-{end}.pdf
Files

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.

Changes

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.
