PDF To Markdown
Author’s activation text, quoted as published
Extract text from a PDF as structured Markdown for analysis, RAG, or LLM context. Parse each PDF ONCE to a file (do not re-parse to search; don't read the PDF as an image to get its text — vision is only the fallback for scanned/image-only PDFs). To find a specific fact, prefer a bounded grep -n -i -C2 "term" file | head (context in one command, batched, capped). Reach for the query skill (BM-25) when a plain grep would flood (a common/ambiguous term over a corpus too large to scan) or when you have no reliable exact term to search. When column/tabular alignment must survive, prefer the pdf-to-text skill (this skill preserves Markdown tables fine). …

Security audit
Not scanned yet. We audit npm-published capabilities for known advisories, install-time scripts and permission surface; this one has no npm package we can resolve, or has not reached the queue.
Its own instructions
Its SKILL.md says when to use it, shows worked examples and covers setup.
Read from the capability’s own SKILL.md. This is not a grade and does not compare to the instruction-depth verdict on an MCP server — a skill has no tools to document, so that rubric does not apply to it.

npx tashan-cli doctorReads the config already on your machine and names what is dead, deprecated or running code at install time. No account, nothing uploaded.
Pro adds the history to tashan doctor, so a run over your own config says which of yours gained an advisory, started running an install script, or lost its last maintainer — and what to move to.
