# Avanquest PDF API Extension agent skills for Claude Code, Cursor and RevampKey

> Ready-made Avanquest PDF API Extension playbooks for AI agents: run a batch document conversion with AI, audit and protect PDFs before sharing, extract data from scanned documents. Free SKILL.md files for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex, or one click in RevampKey.

## Skills

- [Work with the Avanquest PDF API](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/avanquest-pdf-api-extension/skills/essentials.md): Helps you convert, merge, protect, OCR and sign PDFs through the Avanquest API, confirming the account and files first and asking before any tool changes a document.
- [Run a batch document conversion with AI](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/avanquest-pdf-api-extension/skills/pdf-conversion-batch.md): Converts a set of PDFs, HTML, images or text files in one run, checks a sample of each output for fidelity, and lists which files succeeded and which need manual review. It asks before running the full batch.
- [Audit and protect PDFs before sharing](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/avanquest-pdf-api-extension/skills/pdf-redaction-and-protection-audit.md): Checks PDFs for existing password protection, watermarks and compression before they go to an external party, and verifies each change. It asks before applying any protection or markings and never unlocks a protected file.
- [Extract data from scanned documents](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/avanquest-pdf-api-extension/skills/scanned-document-extraction.md): Turns scanned or image-only documents into usable text, tables and fields with the Avanquest PDF API, choosing the lightest extraction route and checking the output against the source before you rely on it.
- [Prepare a PDF for signing](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/avanquest-pdf-api-extension/skills/signing-workflow-preparation.md): Checks page structure, orientation and sizing, then places signature fields and applies signatures. It asks for your explicit yes before any change, and before any signing step, because a signature cannot be undone.

### What is a Avanquest PDF API Extension agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each Avanquest PDF API Extension skill describes one job, which Avanquest PDF API Extension tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

### Do the Avanquest PDF API Extension skills change anything on their own?

2 of the 5 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in Avanquest PDF API Extension.

### Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect Avanquest PDF API Extension; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

### Do I need the Avanquest PDF API Extension MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the Avanquest PDF API Extension MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The Avanquest PDF API Extension MCP setup guide covers every client.
