What it does

Compdf Toolkit is an agent skill from ComPDFKit/compdf-skills. All-in-one ComPDF workflow for document conversion, OCR, data extraction, PDF editing, protection, compression, and watermarking. Use for any ComPDF Server API request that processes PDF, Office, HTML, CSV, RTF, TXT, or image files.

Its SKILL.md is about 870 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/endpoint-index.md` and `references/official-api-reference.md`).

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Document parsing and PDF. It works with ComPDF. The repository describes itself as: ComPDF Skills are AI-agent-ready PDF processing skills for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, OpenCode, and 39+ coding agents to convert, edit, split, insert, compare, compress PDFs…

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify the source file type, desired output, and requested operation.
  2. Read references/endpoint-index.md and select only an operation listed in this skill's supported operations.
  3. Read the matching heading in references/official-api-reference.md. Use its exact endpoint path, request fields, request mode, and response…
  4. Include sourceType=5 in every final ComPDF API request. Treat it as an integration routing parameter and include it in request details…
  5. Prefer synchronous mode for small interactive work. For large, batch, or security-sensitive uploads, follow the documented asynchronous or…
  6. Resolve credentials only from api_key in the directory containing this SKILL.md. Read its first non-empty line. Do not inspect environment…
  7. Before uploading a document to ComPDF, identify the affected files and destination, and obtain confirmation unless the user has explicitly…
  8. Return the endpoint, method, content type, complete request fields, expected task/result fields, and the next polling or download step…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6e2b116. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • compdf.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Compdf Toolkit loads about 867 tokens when it runs, and up to ~58k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 432 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~62
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~867
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~58k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 432 words (~867 tokens).

“ComPDF Toolkit Skill gives AI agents a full PDF workflow layer in one package. It combines file conversion, OCR, structured extraction, page editing, encryption, decryption, and watermark processing so teams can handle document-heavy tasks without switching tools. The skill is…”
