pdf

pdf is a Document generation & office files skill for AI agents, published by e-mon in the geminiclaw repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates pdf D (64/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Safe PDF reading via text extraction. Use this skill whenever you need to read, analyze, or extract content from PDF files. Gemini CLI's read_file sends PDFs as base64 inlineData which frequently causes API errors (400/500), garbled output, or empty responses. This skill avoids those failures by extracting text with pdftotext first. Triggers on any task involving PDF files — paper analysis, document review, data extraction from PDFs, or when a user shares a PDF URL.
