install-pdf

Skill27 starsChanged 25 days agoMITView on GitHub

Install the light PDF parser (pdftext, ~50 MB) into an isolated venv. Covers most PDFs with fast, accurate text extraction. For complex layouts (tables, figures, scanned docs), use /rtfm:install-pdf-full instead.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Install RTFM's light PDF parser by running this command via the Bash tool:

"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/rtfm-install-extras" pdf

After it completes, tell the user to restart Claude Code so the MCP server picks up the new extras venv, then run rtfm_sync (or wait for the next UserPromptSubmit hook) to actually index any PDFs in the project.

If the user has complex PDFs (tables, figures, scanned layouts), suggest /rtfm:install-pdf-full instead — that one pulls marker-pdf with a CPU-only torch build (~1.5 GB).
