Linked apps

  • PDF Viewer

    Demo PDF viewer that renders PDFs from allowed URLs like arxiv.org

Observed tools

  • display_pdf — Show and render a PDF in a read-only viewer. Use this tool when the user wants to view or read a PDF. The renderer displays the document for viewing. The widget exposes app-registered tools for page navigation, text extraction, searching, and zoom control. Accepts local files (use list_pdfs), client MCP root directories, or any HTTPS URL.
  • list_pdfs — List available PDFs that can be displayed
  • read_pdf_bytes — Read a range of bytes from a PDF (max 512KB per request). The model should NOT call this tool directly.
  • save_pdf — Save annotated PDF bytes back to a local file. The model should NOT call this tool directly — use interact with action: save_as instead.
