description	Use when the task requires reading, extracting, or grounding against local PDF files, including paper figures, legends, methods, and page-level evidence.

PDF Reader

Use this skill whenever the key material is a local PDF.

When to use

• The task refers to a paper PDF, figure PDF, or scanned study material.
• The answer must rely on figure panels, legends, or methods beyond an abstract.
• The user asks what a figure or paper section is trying to show.

Workflow

1. Read the PDF before answering from memory.
2. Extract only the pages or sections needed for the current question.
3. Tie claims back to page-level or section-level evidence when possible.
4. Distinguish direct PDF evidence from interpretation.
5. If the PDF is insufficient, ask for the highest-value missing material rather than generic follow-up.
