Perplexity

Claude Code runs PDF tasks in CI/CD

Integrate `generate_pdf_from_template` into your deployment scripts. Claude Code executes the tool headlessly during your build process. This is ideal for generating invoices or logs on the fly. It removes the need for browser-based document generation in your server environment.

Batch processing with Claude Code

Use the terminal to chain `compress_pdf` and `merge_pdfs` across your entire directory. Claude Code handles the loop and execution flow. You pass the file paths as arguments. The agent manages the sequence and saves the results to your designated output directory.

Claude Code manages template versions

Call `list_templates` to see which versions are available to your pipeline. Claude Code verifies the template ID before execution. This prevents runtime errors caused by missing files. You get clear feedback in the terminal if a template ID is incorrect.
