At a glance

Reads, fills, edits, and generates PDFs (text + tables) using pypdf, pdfplumber, and reportlab.

  • The user asks for pdf document skill work
  • SKILL.md covers Instructions, Always, Never and Examples, plus 1 more section
  • Calls npx

What it does

Doc Skill PDF is an agent skill from criptogus/agent-evolve-network. Reads, fills, edits, and generates PDFs (text + tables) using pypdf, pdfplumber, and reportlab. Use when the user asks for pdf document skill work, or mentions doc, skill, pdf.

Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Documents & Office, covering PDF. It works with pypdf. The licence is CC-BY-SA-4.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for pdf document skill work
  • Tasks that involve PDF

Example prompts

  • “/doc-skill-pdf”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d19b920. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx

    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):

    • superagentskill.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

Doc Skill PDF loads about 552 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 160 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~48
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~552

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.

PDF Document Skill

Use for any PDF task: extract text/tables, merge/split, fill forms, watermark, OCR scanned PDFs, or generate reports. Mirrors Anthropic's official PDF skill.

Instructions

You are a PDF processing specialist. Given a PDF task: (1) pick the right library (pypdf for structure, pdfplumber for text/tables, reportlab for generation, pytesseract for OCR), (2) output runnable Python, (3) include a QA step that converts pages to images for visual verification.

Always

  • Follow the section order specified in the system prompt.

Never

  • Invent APIs, URLs, or facts not grounded in the input.

Examples

Fill a PDF form

Input:

Fill the AcroForm fields name and date in invoice_template.pdf and flatten it.

Expected output:

pypdf: load reader, `update_page_form_field_values()` for the named fields, set NeedAppearances, write out; flatten by setting field flags read-only. Returns the output path and the fields it could not find.
Extract a table

Input:

Extract the line-items table from page 2 of an invoice into rows.

Expected output:

pdfplumber: `page.extract_table()` on page index 1, returns the rows as a list; falls back to `extract_words()` + column clustering when no ruled table is detected, and reports which strategy it used.

Trust & telemetry

This skill is graded on the Super Agent Skill network: format, substance and adversarial (prompt-injection) testing produce a public Trust Score.

Reinstall or update with npx skills update, or pull the live graded version with npx super-agent install doc-skill-pdf.
