Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned shajith003/awesome-claude-skills at 65820933dc.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill provides comprehensive tools for working with PDF files. It allows users to extract text and tabular data from existing PDFs, generate entirely new PDF documents, merge multiple PDFs into one, and split large PDFs into smaller parts. Furthermore, the tool can handle PDF forms, enabling programmatic filling of form fields.

When to use it

  • Data Extraction: Extracting key information (like product details or financial data) from a scanned PDF report for analysis.
  • Form Automation: Automatically populating repetitive fields in PDF order forms with customer data.
  • Document Assembly: Combining multiple smaller PDFs, such as contracts and appendices, into a single consolidated document.
  • PDF Splitting: Dividing a large training manual PDF into individual chapter files for easier distribution.

Key capabilities

  • Text extraction from PDFs
  • Table extraction from PDFs
  • PDF creation (generating new PDFs)
  • PDF merging (combining multiple PDFs)
  • PDF splitting (dividing a single PDF)
  • PDF form handling (filling in fields programmatically)

Example prompts

  • "Extract all tables containing sales data from this PDF and output them as CSV."
  • "Create a new PDF document with the title 'Project Proposal' and include these text sections: [text content]."
  • "Merge these three PDFs into a single file named 'CombinedReport.pdf': [PDF 1], [PDF 2], [PDF 3]"

Tips & gotchas

The skill’s effectiveness in extracting data from scanned or image-based PDFs may vary depending on the quality of the original document. Ensure clear, legible text for optimal results.
