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-builder 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 14d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/generate_pdf.py, scripts/install_fonts.py, scripts/letterhead.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.

PDF Builder — PSD Branded Document Generator

Generate professional PDFs with Peninsula School District letterhead, Inter/Josefin Sans fonts, and Documenso-ready field manifests for digital signing workflows.

Quick Start

Using a Built-in Template

uv run generate_pdf.py --template <template-name> --data '<json>' --output ~/Downloads/doc.pdf

Using a Custom JSON Spec

uv run generate_pdf.py --json '<spec>' --output ~/Downloads/doc.pdf
# or
uv run generate_pdf.py --spec spec.json --output ~/Downloads/doc.pdf

Note: Output paths must be within the skill's paths: scope (scripts/, references/, ~/Downloads/, ~/Desktop/).

Output

Every invocation produces:

  1. PDF file at the --output path
  2. Field manifest at {output}.fields.json — Documenso-ready percentage coordinates
  3. Stdout JSON: {"pdf": "...", "manifest": "...", "pages": N, "fields": N}

Scripts

All scripts live in plugins/psd-productivity/skills/pdf-builder/scripts/.

Script Purpose
generate_pdf.py Core PDF generator — takes JSON spec or template name
letterhead.py Letterhead module — logo, colors, footer, continuation pages
install_fonts.py One-time font setup — downloads Inter + Josefin Sans

Runtime: All scripts use PEP 723 inline dependencies. Run with uv run.

First-Time Setup

Before first use, install fonts:

cd plugins/psd-productivity/skills/pdf-builder/scripts
uv run install_fonts.py

Fonts are stored in scripts/fonts/ (checked into repo). This only needs to run once.

Built-in Templates

Template Description Signers
permission-slip Student activity permission 1 (parent)
employment-agreement HR hiring document 2 (employee + HR)
contractor-agreement Vendor/contractor MOU 2 (contractor + district)
policy-acknowledgment Staff policy receipt 1 (employee)
field-trip-waiver Liability waiver + emergency info 1 (parent)
board-resolution Board action item 2 (chair + secretary)
leave-request Staff leave form 3 (employee + supervisor + HR)
generic-form Blank letterhead + title Configurable

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.
