book-to-skill is a Python CLI that transforms technical books and documents into Claude Code agent skills. It extracts content, converts it to markdown, and packages it for AI agents to reference and use.
Use cases
- Convert a technical PDF into an interactive AI assistant for quick reference.
- Create a knowledge base from a collection of documentation files for LLM-powered search.
- Generate Claude Code skills from a programming book to assist during coding sessions.
- Turn a set of markdown tutorials into a searchable AI agent for learning support.
When to choose
- You need to embed large technical documents into LLM agents without exceeding token limits.
- You work with Claude Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, or similar AI agents and want a ready-to-use skill.
- You prefer a Python-based, open-source solution that supports multiple document formats.
When to avoid
- You require real-time PDF rendering or annotation features beyond text extraction.
- Your workflow depends on non-Python environments without a CLI interface.
- You need a fully managed cloud service rather than a self-hosted tool.
