What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents Claude from crashing or producing shallow output when reading long academic PDFs by splitting them into manageable chunks and processing them in batches.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Safe PDF Reading: Avoids "prompt too long" errors and ensures thorough comprehension of academic papers.
  • Structured Note-Taking: Extracts key information (research question, method, findings, etc.) into a structured notes.md file.
  • Use Case: When asked to review a 30-page research paper, this Skill will download it, split it into 4-page segments, and then read approximately 12 pages at a time, prompting you for confirmation before proceeding to the next batch, ensuring detailed understanding.

Quick Start
