# PDF Explore

Pull methods, figures and citations out of papers you have not read

## What this does

You have a stack of scientific papers and you need something specific out of them: how they ran the experiment, what a table says, where a claim came from. This reads the PDFs and pulls that out, including when the answer is spread across several places or several papers. Reach for it when the reading is the work.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Find the methods section across several papers
- Pull numbers out of a table or figure
- Check a claim against what the paper actually says

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About PDF Explore

This reads scientific PDFs and extracts what you actually asked for: methods, figures, tables, citations, accessions, or specific claims.

It is built for the case where the answer is not in one spot. It cross-checks content across multiple places in a paper, and across more than one paper, so a question that spans several sources can be answered from all of them rather than one at a time.

## Questions

### Is PDF Explore safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of PDF Explore and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 54d08a33dfe1, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/pdf-explore.

### How do I install PDF Explore?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/pdf-explore on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/companion-inc/feynman/tree/54d08a33dfe17abca118c093ad7f2c6b1a41421a/skills/pdf-explore. Install from that link, not the branch.
