DeckProbe: AI Tool for PDF & Office File Inspection

DeckProbe: AI Tool for PDF & Office File Inspection

DeckProbe is a command-line tool for inspecting PDF, Microsoft Office (docx/xlsx/pptx and legacy doc/xls/ppt), and Apple iWork (key/numbers/pages) files. It functions without opening or rendering the files, providing metadata, encryption status, macro presence, digital-signature, and JavaScript risk signals, among other details. The tool outputs deterministic JSON directly to stdout and never sends files externally.

What this skill does

• Inspects document properties including page, slide, and sheet counts.
• Extracts metadata such as titles, author information, and creation dates.
• Identifies risks like encryption, macros, digital signatures, and embedded JavaScript.
• Determines the actual file format authenticity based on its extension.
• Inventories multiple documents simultaneously, presenting structured data.
• Ensures corruption checks without executing any file content.
• Provides JSON output through standard output channels.

Who it is for

This skill is designed for developers and teams employing AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex. It is beneficial for those who require document metadata extraction and risk assessment without the need to render the document content.

Use cases

• Security teams conducting document metadata inspection for compliance and security reporting.
• Development teams automating metadata extraction and risk analysis workflows.
• Legal teams verifying document integrity and format compliance without opening files.
• IT teams conducting inventory management of document repositories.

Technical details

• Integrates with command-line environments.
• Outputs structured, bounded JSON data.
• Executed via shell commands, ensuring security by never running macros or rendering files.
• Can be installed using Node.js with either `deckprobe` command or `npx -y @deckflow/deckprobe`.

For authorised security testing, defensive research and educational use only.
