Ingest

Category skill for local document processing — turning unstructured files into search-ready JSONL chunks.

Skills

Skill	Description
document-processing	Process PDF/DOCX/PPTX into JSONL chunks via Docling (local, no AWS needed)

Not Covered

This skill covers local document processing only (PDF/DOCX → JSONL chunks). It does NOT cover:

• Cloud-scale ingestion via OSIS pipelines → see managed-ingestion-service
• Structured bulk-indexing (_bulk API)
• OpenSearch _ingest processor pipelines (grok, date, set, script)
• Log/metric shipping (Fluent Bit, Data Prepper, Logstash)

When to Use

Read document-processing/SKILL.md when:

• User has PDFs/documents and needs JSONL chunks
• User wants to evaluate chunk quality before ingestion
• User mentions Docling, document processing, chunking

For cloud ingestion (JSONL → OSIS → OpenSearch index), see cloud/managed-ingestion-service.
