pdf-cli 0.1.0

First release. pdf lets a coding agent read PDFs on your Mac: a map of the file first, then only the pages it asks for, search, crops of tables and figures, and a flag on everything it could not read well. It runs on the Mac, with Apple's PDFKit and OCR; nothing is uploaded.

Install:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jinhuang712/pdf-cli/main/install.sh | bash

or download pdf-0.1.0-macos-universal.tar.gz below (Apple silicon and Intel in one file; check it against the .sha256 file), or build from source with swift build -c release. Needs macOS 12 or later.

For Claude Code and Codex, a plugin with the agent guide (it installs pdf too, if it is missing):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jinhuang712/pdf-cli/main/install-claude.sh | bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jinhuang712/pdf-cli/main/install-codex.sh | bash

The binary is signed ad hoc and not notarized. Tested on macOS 27 on Apple silicon only; the Intel half has not been run. The plugin's install scripts have not been tried end to end. Every goal in plan/GOALS.md is still being measured; the first small question runs are in reports/M3.6-first-question-runs.md. See the README and CHANGELOG.md.
