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

document-skills-pdf 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 4d 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.

What it actually says

Document Skills - PDF

Activate this skill when working with PDF documents in data/AI workflows.

When to Use

  • Extracting tables from financial reports
  • Parsing research papers for literature review
  • Converting scanned PDFs to text (OCR)
  • Extracting metadata from document collections
  • Building document processing pipelines

Libraries

  • pypdf: Read/write PDF, extract text and metadata
  • pdfplumber: Table extraction with spatial awareness
  • PyMuPDF (fitz): Fast rendering and text extraction
  • camelot-py: Table extraction from PDFs
  • pytesseract: OCR for scanned documents

Usage

import pdfplumber

with pdfplumber.open("report.pdf") as pdf:
    for page in pdf.pages:
        tables = page.extract_tables()
        text = page.extract_text()

# OCR for scanned documents
import pytesseract
from pdf2image import convert_from_path

images = convert_from_path("scanned.pdf")
text = pytesseract.image_to_string(images[0])

Rules

  • Check if PDF is text-based or scanned before processing
  • Use pdfplumber for table extraction over regex parsing
  • Handle multi-column layouts carefully
  • Validate extracted numbers against visual inspection
  • Process large PDFs page-by-page to manage memory
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.
