ocr

ocr is a skill for Claude Code from henkisdabro/wookstar-claude-plugins. It costs 145 tokens per session (1,078 once invoked), scanned B, original, no licence file.

A local tool that adds searchable text to scanned or image-only PDF files using OCR. OCR, or optical character recognition, reads printed text from images and puts it into a document's text layer.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to make scanned PDFs searchable, extract text from scans, or digitise a scanned book.
Why use it?
Scanned PDFs often contain only pictures, so normal text extraction and searching return nothing. This makes their text available for search and extraction.

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 B, and why

ocr 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 12d 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

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.
