You'd reach for this when you need Claude to work directly with PDF files without manually copying content. It exposes operations for extracting text and tables from PDFs, merging multiple documents together, and pulling metadata. The server runs remotely over SSE at pdf.rjctdlabs.xyz, so you don't need to install anything locally. Useful for document processing workflows where you're analyzing contracts, combining reports, or pulling structured data from forms. The table extraction is the standout feature here since that's typically a pain point with PDFs.
