Everything PDF: extract text/tables, merge/split/rotate, watermarks, create new, fill forms, encrypt/decrypt, extract images, OCR scanned files. Use whenever a .pdf file is involved or the user asks to produce one.
PDF processing toolkit. Extract text/tables/images, merge/split/watermark, format conversion, AI summarization/translation, OCR, encryption/decryption, form handling. Use when working with PDF files, extracting content, converting formats, or applying AI enhancements.
Use this skill whenever the user wants to do anything with PDF files. This includes reading or extracting text/tables from PDFs, combining or merging multiple PDFs into one, splitting PDFs apart, rotating pages, adding watermarks, creating new PDFs, filling PDF forms, encrypting/decrypting PDFs, extracting images, and OCR on scanned PDFs to make them searchable. If the user mentions a .pdf file or asks to produce one, use this skill.
Comprehensive PDF manipulation toolkit for extracting text and tables, creating new PDFs, merging/splitting documents, and handling forms. When Claude needs to fill in a PDF form or programmatically process, generate, or analyze PDF documents at scale.
Read, create and manipulate PDF files — extract text and tables, merge, split, rotate, reorder and delete pages, read and fill AcroForm fields, add or strip metadata, encrypt and decrypt, and generate new PDFs from HTML or from scratch. Also covers rasterising pages to images so a PDF can actually be looked at, and OCR for scanned documents. Use whenever a .pdf must be produced, inspected or altered.
Comprehensive PDF manipulation toolkit for extracting text and tables, creating new PDFs, merging/splitting documents, and handling forms. This skill should be used when Cline needs to fill in a PDF form or programmatically process, generate, or analyze PDF documents at scale.
Work with PDF files - read, extract text/images/tables, create PDFs, merge, split, and convert PDFs. Use when the user asks to read, create, modify, or analyze PDF documents.
Create, inspect, modify, render, merge, split, fill, watermark, secure, and validate PDF files using Qubicl's pinned local document tools. Use whenever a task substantially involves PDF input or output.
Use this skill when describing, summarizing, extracting structured data from, or answering questions about PDF documents, or when planning PDF layout and structure for reports, contracts, and publications. Not for editing binary PDF files directly. Not for converting PDFs to other formats programmatically.
PDF file inspection, object-level editing, and lossless size reduction using qpdf, pdf-parser.py, pdfsizeopt, and Ghostscript. You MUST load this skill when inspecting, editing, or optimizing PDF files.

brew install poppler
# LibreOffice for DOCX
Plain text files in a repository that tell a coding agent how the project works: commands to run, conventions to follow and things to avoid. CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, cursor rules and skills are the common kinds.
CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md?
CLAUDE.md is read by Claude Code. AGENTS.md is an open format that Codex, Cursor and other agents read. Many projects keep one and point the other at it.
What is a skill?
A folder with a SKILL.md that describes one capability, such as filling PDFs or reviewing code. The agent loads it only when the task calls for it.
Can I search my own team's files too?
Your agents already can, over MCP, limited to the files you're allowed to read. Searching them from this page is coming.
