3de035dc8d* Add MCPB packaging and Claude Code plugin for pdf-server Two distribution paths for the pdf-server: 1. **MCPB bundle** (Claude Desktop MCP Directory): - manifest.json: v0.3 manifest with tools, compatibility, privacy - .mcpbignore: excludes source/tests from bundle - icon.png: 64x64 PDF document icon 2. **Claude Code plugin** (plugin/): - .mcp.json: declares local stdio server via npx - commands: /pdf-research:read, /pdf-research:summarize - skills: pdf-reading skill for document navigation - Tested end-to-end: MCP server connects, all tools available The plugin uses a local stdio MCP server pattern — the first known instance in a knowledge-work plugin (all existing plugins use remote HTTP connectors).

# PDF Reading
|
|
|
|
You have access to a local PDF server that provides interactive document viewing.
|
|
|
|
## Available Tools
|
|
|
|
- **list_pdfs** -- Show available PDFs. Call with no arguments.
|
|
- **display_pdf** -- Open a PDF in the interactive viewer.
|
|
- `url` (string): URL or local file path
|
|
- `page` (number, optional): Starting page number
|
|
|
|
## How to Use
|
|
|
|
**When the user mentions a PDF, paper, or document:**
|
|
1. If they give a URL or path, call `display_pdf` directly
|
|
2. If they say "open the paper" without specifying, call `list_pdfs` to show options
|
|
3. After displaying, offer to summarize, extract data, answer questions
|
|
|
|
**arXiv shortcuts:**
|
|
- `arxiv.org/abs/2301.12345` is auto-converted to the PDF URL
|
|
- Users can just say "open arxiv 2301.12345"
|
|
|
|
**Supported remote sources:**
|
|
arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv, chemRxiv, Zenodo, OSF, HAL Science, SSRN
|
|
|
|
## Best Practices
|
|
|
|
- Always display the PDF before trying to analyze it
|
|
- For multi-page documents, ask which section the user cares about
|
|
- When comparing papers, display them one at a time and note key differences
