Description
Use when parsing PDFs for RAG pipelines, extracting structured data from PDFs, or converting PDFs to Markdown/JSON with bounding boxes for AI processing
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and focused on local PDF extraction. Before installing: 1) verify the opendataloader-pdf package on PyPI/npm and confirm the upstream GitHub/source and release integrity; 2) be aware that hybrid mode or any server mode may change data flows (it could call external services or require models) — read the hybrid-mode docs and any config for remote endpoints or API keys before enabling; 3) run installations in an isolated environment (virtualenv/container) and test on non-sensitive documents first; 4) ensure Java 11+ and any OCR dependencies are installed from trusted sources; and 5) if you need guarantees about data staying local, confirm implementation details for hybrid/OCR modes in the project's docs or source code.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: opendataloader-pdf
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides documentation and instructions for 'opendataloader-pdf', a tool designed for parsing PDFs into structured formats like Markdown and JSON for RAG pipelines. The content in SKILL.md and _meta.json consists of standard installation commands (pip/npm), usage examples, and feature descriptions without any evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection attacks.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (PDF parsing for RAG, bounding boxes, Markdown/JSON output) align with the SKILL.md: it documents CLI/Python/Node APIs, supported modes (fast/hybrid/OCR), and expected outputs. Required system dependencies (Java, Python/Node) are reasonable for PDF parsing/OCR pipelines.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md only instructs installing the package(s), running conversion commands, and configuring mode/ocr/languages. It references input file paths and output directories (expected for this purpose). It does not instruct reading unrelated system files, exporting secrets, or sending data to unexpected external endpoints. The only potential scope caveat: 'hybrid' mode and 'start server' are mentioned but not detailed — those could change data flows depending on implementation, so users should verify hybrid behavior before enabling.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec. The SKILL.md recommends pip/npm installs (standard registries). No embedded download URLs or archive extraction steps in the skill itself. Installing from PyPI/npm is a common, low-risk approach — verify package provenance when installing.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The SKILL.md does not reference secret env vars. This is proportionate for a local PDF-extraction tool.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent system presence or modify other skills. It does not require elevated privileges or access to other agents' configs.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install opendataloader-pdf - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/opendataloader-pdf - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
