The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
generate_pdf Generate PDF ~208
Convert markdown into a designed PDF (cover page, auto TOC, page-numbered footer). Use this for any "save/export/print/share as PDF", "make a report", "turn this into a PDF", or /pdf request — do NOT fall back to Chrome headless, cupsfilter, wkhtmltopdf, pandoc, or LaTeX. Templates: research-report (cover + TOC, default) or plain (no cover, no TOC).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| author | string | – | Author name shown on the cover page. |
| content | string | yes | Markdown content to convert to PDF. |
| output_path | string | – | Absolute path for the output PDF. Defaults to ~/Documents/pdf-it/{title}-{timestamp}.pdf |
| template | string | – | Template to use. "research-report" (default) adds a cover page and table of contents. "plain" renders body content only. |
| title | string | – | Document title shown on the cover page and footer. |
