Install
$ 1. Install: dsh plugin --profile web add tool-pdfreader (or run node tool-pdfreader/setup.mjs)Plugin Overview & Capabilities
AI-assisted organization based on the public repository snapshot. The content must be grounded in source evidence and does not replace compatibility or security verification.
Key Capabilities
- Classifies text and scanned PDFs and routes scanned pages through OCR when needed.
- Extracts structured Markdown and generates bilingual Markdown, Chinese-only Markdown, HTML, and raw extraction outputs.
- Translates content block by block using configurable OpenAI-compatible LLM endpoints.
- Extracts figures and captions, with optional vision-model interpretations.
- Provides a repository-local DSH skill and an optional pdfreader tool-plugin integration.
Useful For
- Reading and translating foreign-language academic papers into Chinese.
- Producing offline-openable side-by-side HTML reading reports.
- Batch-processing PDFs or running extraction without translation API calls.
- Letting DeepSeek Harness drive the CLI through the included skill or registered tool.
Who It Fits
- Researchers and students reading academic PDFs.
- Chinese-speaking literature readers.
- DeepSeek Harness users who want PDF-reading workflow integration.
Documented Limitations
- Requires Python 3.10 or later and the project requirements.
- Translation and optional figure understanding require configured OpenAI-compatible API credentials.
- Remote HTTP API endpoints are rejected by default and require explicit insecure-HTTP opt-in.
- The DSH tool integration requires separate installation, Cordis configuration registration, and a restart.
- Figure interpretation requires the optional --vision mode and a vision-model configuration.
