Pdf Converter
This is a wrapper around MinerU's open API for extracting text from PDFs, images, and Office files into Markdown or other formats. It has two modes: flash-extract for quick jobs under 10MB with no auth required, and extract for bigger files that need full-fidelity table/formula/image preservation. The skill handles OCR in 80+ languages and works with URLs or local files. The instructions are thorough about a specific gotcha: when using page ranges with directory output, you need to specify explicit filenames or extracts will overwrite each other. If you're doing document Q&A or conversion work, this gives you a clean pipeline from binary blob to structured text without managing API keys yourself for basic use.

Files
Document to Markdown
Convert PDF, images, Office docs, and more to clean Markdown using the MinerU Open API CLI. No API key needed for basic use.
Language Rule
Reply to the user in the SAME language they use. This is non-negotiable.
Core Workflow
Extraction is often just the first step. The typical flow is:
- Extract — Use
mineru-open-apito convert the document to Markdown - Read & Process — Help the user with what they actually need
MinerU outputs raw Markdown — it doesn't interpret or restructure the content. If the user asks to "extract the tables", "summarize the paper", or "find the key findings", you need to read the output and do that work yourself. MinerU handles the OCR and layout; you handle the understanding.
Use -o to save to a file when the user wants persistent output (conversion, batch processing). Skip -o and read stdout directly when the content is consumed immediately (summarization, Q&A).
