# PDF Explore
Use this skill when a PDF answer depends on more than one page or section.
Workflow:
1. Parse or inspect the full PDF enough to map title, abstract, methods, figures, tables, supplement references, and citations.
2. Extract the exact pages and regions that support the answer. Use Feynman's PDF preview annotations for page/line/rectangle anchors when available.
3. Keep table values, figure labels, accession IDs, and quoted snippets tied to page numbers.
4. Cross-check claims against methods, captions, supplement text, and cited papers when the conclusion depends on them.
5. Save extracted notes, annotations, and provenance as artifacts.
Do not answer from a single visible page when the question spans methods, figures, or supplements.
