Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00021 | $0.00378 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00151 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00076 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00038 |
Grade A, and why
nano-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 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.
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.
This is a copy
86% identical to nano-pdf — 7 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
What it actually says
nano-pdf
Edit PDFs using natural-language instructions. Point it at a page and describe what to change.
Prerequisites
# Install with uv (recommended — already available in Cogitum)
uv pip install nano-pdf
# Or with pip
pip install nano-pdf
Usage
nano-pdf edit <file.pdf> <page_number> "<instruction>"
Examples
# Change a title on page 1
nano-pdf edit deck.pdf 1 "Change the title to 'Q3 Results' and fix the typo in the subtitle"
# Update a date on a specific page
nano-pdf edit report.pdf 3 "Update the date from January to February 2026"
# Fix content
nano-pdf edit contract.pdf 2 "Change the client name from 'Acme Corp' to 'Acme Industries'"
Notes
- Page numbers may be 0-based or 1-based depending on version — if the edit hits the wrong page, retry with ±1
- Always verify the output PDF after editing (use
read_fileto check file size, or open it) - The tool uses an LLM under the hood — requires an API key (check
nano-pdf --helpfor config) - Works well for text changes; complex layout modifications may need a different approach
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.
