Stdout is clean JSON (model-init logs are silenced at the CLI layer); leave stderr unredirected so real errors surface on the first call. The full JSON sits at `/tmp/hits.json` if you need to re-parse it (`jq '.[6]' /tmp/hits.json`), but in the common case the jq summary above is all you need. - -That's your FIRST tool call on every query turn. Do not Read, Glob, Grep, or list PDFs before this — those duplicate what `retriever query` already did. - -**No narration between tool calls.** Do not write "Let me search…", "I'll now analyze…", "The retriever returned…", or any other commentary. Every assistant token you emit between the `retriever query` Bash call and the `Write` of `./output.json` becomes input tokens (and cached input tokens) for every subsequent turn in this session — quadratic cost. Go straight from reading the jq summary to writing the JSON file. The only assistant text in a query turn should be the tool calls themselves. - -Each hit has: `text`, `pdf_basename`, `page_number` (int, **1-indexed**: the first page of a PDF is page `1`), `pdf_page` (string composite key `"_"` — not a number, don't use it as one), `_distance`, and `metadata` (JSON with `type` ∈ `text|table|chart|image`). - -**Then write `./output.json` directly from $HITS:** - -- `final_answer`: synthesize from the top hits' `text`. Include the exact number / name / date / row / column the question asks for, plus the source PDF and 0-indexed page. One paragraph. No restating the question, no hedging caveats. If the chunks talk *around* the fact but don't state it, run ONE `retriever pdf stage page-elements ./pdfs --method pdfium --json-output-dir /tmp/pdf_text --compact-json` and read `/tmp/pdf_text/.pdf.pdf_extraction.json` for the rank-1 page (or rank-2 if rank-1 is metadata) — that almost always surfaces the exact figure. Then synthesize. **If after both calls the asked-for fact still isn't in the evidence, write `final_answer` that says so explicitly** — e.g. "The retrieved pages do not state [X] for [entity]; the closest content is [Y]." Do NOT invent, extrapolate, or generate plausible-sounding content from adjacent material. A confidently-wrong answer scores worse than an honest "not in the retrieved pages". -- `ranked_retrieved`: one entry per hit in the order `retriever query` returned: `{"doc_id": "", "page_number": , "rank": }`. Up to 10. Duplicate `(doc, page)` is fine. **Indexing:** the retriever's `page_number` is 1-indexed. If the task's output schema says 0-indexed (e.g. "first page is page 0"), emit `hit.page_number - 1`; if the task says 1-indexed or doesn't specify, emit `hit.page_number` as-is. - -**Before writing `final_answer`, re-read the question.** If it lists multiple entities, years, or categories, your answer must address each one explicitly — even if for some of them the chunks say "not provided" or contain no data. Missing entities lose more judge points than imprecise numbers. - -**Charts and images need extra caution — this is the single biggest source of judge=2/3 trials.** When `metadata.type` of a hit is `chart` or `image`, its `text` field is a model-generated transcription that frequently: - -- reverses direction words (`increase`↔`decrease`, `rose`↔`fell`, `surge`↔`drop`), and -- rounds or misreads exact percentages (e.g. transcribing 12% as 20%). - -If a question asks for an exact percentage or a directional claim **and the evidence is only a chart/image hit** (no `text`-type hit corroborates the same number or direction): - -1. Run the targeted `retriever pdf stage page-elements --method pdfium` text-extract on the rank-1 PDF (this counts as your second tool call) and look for the number in prose. -2. If prose confirms the chart number, assert it confidently. -3. If prose doesn't mention it, **quote the chart transcription verbatim with an explicit hedge in `final_answer`**: "The chart on page N indicates [verbatim phrase] (chart-derived, not verified against prose)." Do NOT restate the chart's number as a confident fact. - -When both a chart hit and a text hit cover the same fact, always prefer the text hit's number. - -After writing the file, STOP. No print, no summary, no further tool calls. - -### Hard limits (cost discipline) - -- ONE `retriever query` per turn. ONE optional targeted text-extract on the rank-1 PDF if the chunks miss the asked-for fact. That's the budget — it is a hard cap, not a soft preference. -- After your 2nd tool call, write `final_answer` with what you have and STOP. If both calls left the asked-for fact unresolved, write `final_answer` that **explicitly states the retrieved pages don't contain the requested fact** (naming the closest related content if any) — **do not run more tool calls hunting for it, and do not extrapolate a plausible value.** Long-running query turns (5+ tool calls, 1M+ cache-read tokens) cost ~5× a disciplined turn and usually still produce the wrong answer. -- Don't read whole PDFs. -- Don't make speculative Read/Glob/Grep calls "to confirm". The retriever already found the relevant pages — trust the ranking. -- Don't spawn agents, write plans, or make todo lists. The workflow above is the workflow. - -### If the index is missing or `retriever query` returns `[]` - -Means ingest didn't complete (e.g. the text-only pipeline still hit the turn wall, or the table is empty). Tight fallback using the retriever's own pdfium-based extractor (always available — same binary the agent just used for `retriever query`): -1. `ls ./pdfs/` (one call) to see filenames. -2. Pick the SINGLE PDF whose name best matches the question. -3. ONE call: `retriever pdf stage page-elements ./pdfs --method pdfium --json-output-dir /tmp/pdf_text --compact-json`. This emits a JSON sidecar per PDF at `/tmp/pdf_text/.pdf.pdf_extraction.json` containing per-page text primitives — pdfium only, no OCR, no NIM, fast. -4. `jq` (or read directly) `/tmp/pdf_text/.pdf.pdf_extraction.json` for the chosen PDF and synthesize from the per-page text. If the answer isn't there, still write your best guess based on the filename + extracted pages plus a one-sentence acknowledgement of uncertainty in `final_answer`. Then stop. - -Do NOT keep doing text-extract calls across many PDFs to hunt — that exhausts the turn budget. Better to answer partially than to time out.

+Use when the user wants to search, query, extract, transcribe, describe, quote, filter, or aggregate across documents — PDFs, scanned forms / images (.jpg .png .tiff), Office (.docx .pptx), text (.html .txt), audio (.mp3 .wav .m4a), or video (.mp4 .mov).
+ +This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use.
+ +## Owner +NVIDIA
+ +### License/Terms of Use:
+Apache 2.0
+## Use Case:
+Developers and engineers who need to search, query, extract, or aggregate information across multimodal document collections including PDFs, images, Office files, audio, and video for retrieval-augmented generation workflows.
+ +### Deployment Geography for Use:
+Global
+ +## Known Risks and Mitigations:
+Risk: Review before execution as proposals could introduce incorrect or misleading guidance into skills.
+Mitigation: Review and scan skill before deployment.

+**Output Type(s):** [Shell commands, JSON]
+**Output Format:** [Markdown with inline bash code blocks and JSON query results]
+**Output Parameters:** [1D]
+**Other Properties Related to Output:** [None]
+ +## Evaluation Agents Used:
+- Claude Code (`claude-code`)
+- Codex (`codex`)
+ + + +## Evaluation Tasks:
+Evaluated against 4 evaluation tasks (3 positive skill-activation, 1 negative), 2 attempts per task, 50% pass threshold. Overall verdict: PASS.
+ +## Evaluation Metrics Used:
+Reported benchmark dimensions:
+- Security: Checks whether skill-assisted execution avoids unsafe behavior such as secret leakage, destructive commands, or unauthorized access.
+- Correctness: Checks whether the agent follows the expected workflow and produces the correct final output.
+- Discoverability: Checks whether the agent loads the skill when relevant and avoids using it when irrelevant.
+- Effectiveness: Checks whether the agent performs measurably better with the skill than without it.
+- Efficiency: Checks whether the agent uses fewer tokens and avoids redundant work.
+ +Underlying evaluation signals used in this run:
+- `security`: Checks for unsafe operations, secret leakage, and unauthorized access.
+- `skill_execution`: Verifies that the agent loaded the expected skill and workflow.
+- `skill_efficiency`: Checks routing quality, decoy avoidance, and redundant tool usage.
+- `accuracy`: Grades final-answer correctness against the reference answer.
+- `goal_accuracy`: Checks whether the overall user task completed successfully.
+- `behavior_check`: Verifies expected behavior steps, including safety expectations.
+- `token_efficiency`: Compares token usage with and without the skill.
