Local-first PDF evidence for agents. Structured text, tables, OCR, visual crops, and page-level citations your agent can defend — not invent. Canonical package @sylphx/citra · bin citra · MCP io.github.SylphxAI/citra · live 5.0.0 Zero-config in one line No Docker. No API key. No global install. Spawns a stdio MCP server agents can use immediately. Client Setup --- --- Any agent / CLI npx -y @sylphx/citra Claude Code claude mcp add citra -- npx -y @sylphx/citra Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code / Codex \"command\": \"npx\", \"args\": [\"-y\", \"@sylphx/citra\"] Global CLI npm i -g @sylphx/citra → citra Why Citra feels unfairly good Plain-text PDF tools make agents guess . Citra returns an Agent Document Twin they can cite . Pain today With Citra --- --- Page numbers invented or missing Page + geometry + provenance Tables flattened into soup Rows · columns · cells · bounding boxes Scanned PDFs become noise OCR path linked to evidence Install / config / “hope it works” npx -y — done Silent engine fallbacks Fail closed if the native binary is missing Five reasons teams pick Citra 1. Zero-config — real npx MCP, not a 20-step bootstrap. 2. Evidence, not vibes — citations agents can show a human. 3. Local-first — PDFs stay on the machine; no required cloud vision API. 4. Brand-sole — one package, one bin, one story ( @sylphx/citra / citra ). 5. Instrument family — compose with Iris (image), Cue (video), Spine, Lookout, Locus.
