Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Use scripts/pypdf_cli.py for deterministic PDF operations instead of ad-hoc pypdf snippets.
Confirm the PDF file path is accessible locally. Run the desired command (inspect, extract-text, extract-pages, merge, split, rotate). Inspect text output or the resulting PDF file.
Inspect metadata and page count: python scripts/pypdf_cli.py info --input <file.pdf> Extract all text: python scripts/pypdf_cli.py extract-text --input <file.pdf> Extract text from specific pages (0-indexed): python scripts/pypdf_cli.py extract-text --input <file.pdf> --pages 0 1 2 Split PDF into individual pages: python scripts/pypdf_cli.py split --input <file.pdf> --output-dir <dir/> Extract a page range into a new PDF: python scripts/pypdf_cli.py extract-pages --input <file.pdf> --pages 0 1 2 --output <out.pdf> Merge multiple PDFs: python scripts/pypdf_cli.py merge --inputs <a.pdf> <b.pdf> <c.pdf> --output <merged.pdf> Rotate pages: python scripts/pypdf_cli.py rotate --input <file.pdf> --angle 90 --output <rotated.pdf> --angle must be 90, 180, or 270. Optionally restrict to specific pages with --pages 0 2.
Pages are always 0-indexed in all commands. For extract-text, output goes to stdout; redirect to a file when needed. Require explicit --output for commands that write a new PDF. Install dependency if missing: pip install pypdf.
