README (SKILL.md)
Extract Tables From Pdf
Convert and extract content from .pdf using MinerU (mineru-open-api).
Install
npm install -g mineru-open-api
# or via Go (macOS/Linux):
go install github.com/opendatalab/MinerU-Ecosystem/cli/mineru-open-api@latest
Quick Start
# Extract tables from PDF (requires token)
mineru-open-api extract report.pdf -o ./out/
# With explicit table flag and OCR for scanned docs
mineru-open-api extract scanned.pdf --ocr --table -o ./out/
Authentication
Token required for extract and crawl:
mineru-open-api auth # Interactive token setup
export MINERU_TOKEN="your-token" # Or via environment variable
Create token at: https://mineru.net/apiManage/token
Capabilities
- Supports local files and URLs
- Requires token (
mineru-open-api authorMINERU_TOKENenv) - Supported input: .pdf
- Language hint with
--language(default:ch, useenfor English) - Page range with
--pages(where applicable)
Notes
- Table recognition requires
extractwith token.flash-extractdoes NOT support tables. Use--tableflag (enabled by default). - Output goes to stdout by default; use
-o \x3Cdir>to save to file - Binary formats (docx) require
-oflag (cannot stream to stdout) - All progress/status messages go to stderr
- MinerU is an open-source project by OpenDataLab (Shanghai AI Lab): https://github.com/opendatalab/MinerU
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be what it says: a wrapper around the mineru-open-api CLI that requires a MINERU_TOKEN. Before installing or using it: 1) Confirm mineru.net and the GitHub repo look legitimate and review their privacy/security docs; 2) Assume PDFs you process may be uploaded to MinerU servers—do not send sensitive or regulated data unless you trust the service or have an on-prem/self-hosted alternative; 3) Prefer installing in an isolated environment (container or VM) and inspect the npm/go package source if you require higher assurance; 4) Limit and rotate the MINERU_TOKEN and avoid storing it in shared shells; 5) If you need purely local-only processing, verify the CLI actually supports local-only mode or find an offline tool. If you want me to, I can fetch the mineru-open-api npm package or GitHub repo and highlight any concerning code or publish scripts before you install.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: extract-tables-from-pdf
Version: 0.4.0
The skill is a legitimate wrapper for the MinerU document intelligence engine (developed by Shanghai AI Lab) used to extract tables from PDF files. It utilizes the 'mineru-open-api' CLI tool and requires a standard API token (MINERU_TOKEN) for its cloud-based extraction services. No evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration beyond the stated purpose, or prompt injection was found in SKILL.md or _meta.json.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match what is required: the skill requires the mineru-open-api binary and a MINERU_TOKEN, which are exactly what a MinerU-based PDF table extractor would need.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to run mineru-open-api commands, authenticate with MINERU_TOKEN, and operate on local files or URLs. This is within scope, but the instructions imply the CLI will use the token to contact MinerU services — meaning PDF contents may be transmitted to an external service; that is expected but important for privacy.
Install Mechanism
Installers are standard: npm package and go install from a GitHub repo. Both are reasonable for a CLI tool. Note: installing npm packages can run lifecycle scripts, so review the package or install in a controlled environment if you need extra safety.
Credentials
Only a single service credential (MINERU_TOKEN) is required and is declared as the primary credential. That is proportional to the described remote-API usage. The skill does not request unrelated credentials or system paths.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill does not request always:true or elevated platform persistence. It is user-invocable and can run autonomously (platform default), which is normal for skills of this type.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install extract-tables-from-pdf - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/extract-tables-from-pdf - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
