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 →
pdf_batch Batch-edit a PDF template ~233
Apply the same edits to one template PDF once per record, producing one output document per record — a mail merge over an existing PDF. Returns a `job_id`: call `pdf_job` with it for the per-record results. To change text on one page only, set `scope.pages`; to pick one of several identical matches, use `scope.after` with nearby text or `scope.occurrence`. Use `op: 'redact'` when the text must be unrecoverable.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| edits | array | yes | The edits applied to each record, with `{field}` placeholders filled from it. |
| file | string | yes | The PDF: an absolute (or ~) local path, which this server uploads for you, an https:// URL the API fetches, or an `f_…` file id from an earlier call. Used as the template for every record. |
| options | object | – | – |
| password | string | – | – |
| records | array | – | One object per output document. |
| records_url | string | – | A CSV or JSONL file of records, instead of `records`. |

No examples provided.
pdf_edit Edit a PDF ~296
Edit the text of an existing PDF in place: replace, delete, redact, insert, or fill form fields, keeping the original layout, fonts and everything you did not point at. `edits[]` is taken exactly as the API takes it (`op`, `scope`, `match`, `fit`), and the result carries up to 3 before/after previews of the pages that changed. To change text on one page only, set `scope.pages`; to pick one of several identical matches, use `scope.after` with nearby text or `scope.occurrence`. Use `op: 'redact'` when the text must be unrecoverable.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| edits | array | yes | The edits to apply, in order, exactly as `POST /v1/edit` takes them. |
| file | string | yes | The PDF: an absolute (or ~) local path, which this server uploads for you, an https:// URL the API fetches, or an `f_…` file id from an earlier call. |
| options | object | – | – |
| output_path | string | – | Where to write the edited PDF (stdio mode only). Default: `<name>.edited.pdf` next to the input, or `<name>.edited.2.pdf`, `.3.pdf`, ... when that exists; an earlier result is never overwritten. |
| password | string | – | The document open password, when it has one. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
pdf_find Read the text of a PDF ~214
Read the text of a PDF: every span with its page, position, font and span id, optionally filtered by `query` (the same four `match` modes an edit uses) and `pages`, over the `content`, `forms` and `annotations` layers. Paginated: pass the returned `next_cursor` back as `cursor` for the next page. Use it before `pdf_edit` to check what a document actually says and to pick the `scope` that selects the match you mean.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| cursor | string|null | – | – |
| file | string | yes | The PDF: an absolute (or ~) local path, which this server uploads for you, an https:// URL the API fetches, or an `f_…` file id from an earlier call. |
| layers | array | – | – |
| limit | integer | – | (default: 200) |
| match | object | – | – |
| pages | – | – | – |
| password | string | – | – |

No examples provided.
pdf_job Job result ~99
The result of an async edit or a batch, by `job_id`: the same body `pdf_edit` returns once the job is done, plus `progress` while it is still queued or running, and `records` for a batch.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| job_id | string | yes | The `job_id` an async edit or a batch returned. |
| output_path | string | – | Where to write the finished document (stdio mode, single-document jobs only). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
pdf_preview Render a PDF page ~138
Render one page of a PDF as a PNG image block, optionally cropped to `region` and with rectangles drawn over `highlight`. Use it to see a page before editing it, or to check the result afterwards.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| file | string | yes | The PDF: an absolute (or ~) local path, which this server uploads for you, an https:// URL the API fetches, or an `f_…` file id from an earlier call. |
| highlight | – | – | – |
