Agent skill
webpack
Provides comprehensive guidance for Webpack bundler including configuration, loaders, plugins, code splitting, optimization, and development setup. Use when the user asks about Webpack, needs to configure build pipelines, optimize bundles, or work with Webpack plugins and loaders.

SKILL.md
When to use this skill
Use this skill whenever the user wants to:
- Bundle JavaScript, CSS, and assets with Webpack loaders and plugins
- Configure multi-entry points, code splitting, caching, and optimization
- Set up HMR with webpack-dev-server for development
- Optimize production builds with tree shaking and minification
How to use this skill
Workflow
- Configure — define entry, output, loaders, and plugins in
webpack.config.js - Develop — run dev server with HMR for fast iteration
- Build — run production build with optimizations
- Analyze — inspect bundle size with webpack-bundle-analyzer
Quick Start Example
// webpack.config.js
const path = require('path');
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin');
const MiniCssExtractPlugin = require('mini-css-extract-plugin');
module.exports = (env, argv) => {
const isProd = argv.mode === 'production';
return {
entry: './src/index.js',
output: {
path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
filename: isProd ? '[name].[contenthash].js' : '[name].js',
clean: true,
},
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.jsx?$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
use: 'babel-loader',
},
{
test: /\.css$/,
use: [
isProd ? MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader : 'style-loader',
'css-loader',
],
},
{
test: /\.(png|svg|jpg|gif)$/,
type: 'asset/resource',
},
],
},
plugins: [
new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
template: './src/index.html',
}),
...(isProd ? [new MiniCssExtractPlugin({
filename: '[name].[contenthash].css',
})] : []),
],
optimization: {
splitChunks: {
chunks: 'all', // Extract vendor code into separate chunk
},
},
devServer: {
hot: true,
port: 3000,
},
devtool: isProd ? 'source-map' : 'eval-source-map',
};
};
# Development with HMR
npx webpack serve --mode development
# Production build
npx webpack --mode production
# Analyze bundle
npx webpack --mode production --analyze
Code Splitting Example
// Lazy load a route/component
const loadDashboard = () => import(
/* webpackChunkName: "dashboard" */
'./pages/Dashboard'
);
Best Practices
- Order loaders correctly (right-to-left execution); use
exclude: /node_modules/for Babel - Enable
splitChunksfor vendor code extraction and tree shaking in production mode - Use content hashing (
[contenthash]) for long-term caching - For new projects, consider Vite or Rspack for faster build times
- Use
webpack-bundle-analyzerto identify oversized chunks

ocrmypdf-batch
OCRmyPDF batch processing skill — process multiple PDFs, Docker automation, shell scripting, and CI/CD integration. Use when the user needs to OCR many PDFs, set up automated OCR pipelines, or integrate OCR into workflows.
ocrmypdf-optimize
OCRmyPDF optimization skill — compress PDFs, configure PDF/A output, JBIG2 encoding, and lossless optimization. Use when the user needs to reduce PDF file size, create archival PDF/A files, or optimize OCR output.
ocrmypdf-image
OCRmyPDF image processing skill — deskew, rotate, clean, despeckle, remove border from scanned documents. Use when the user needs to improve scanned PDF quality, fix skewed pages, remove noise, or clean up scanned documents before OCR.
ocrmypdf-api
OCRmyPDF Python API and plugin skill — use OCRmyPDF programmatically from Python, integrate with applications, and extend with plugins (EasyOCR, PaddleOCR, AppleOCR). Use when the user needs to call OCRmyPDF from Python code, build OCR pipelines, or use alternative OCR engines.
ocrmypdf
OCRmyPDF core skill — add searchable OCR text layer to scanned PDFs, convert images to searchable PDFs, support 100+ languages via Tesseract. Use when the user needs to OCR a PDF, make a scanned PDF searchable, or extract text from scanned documents.
svelte
Guides Svelte and SvelteKit development including reactive components, stores, transitions, lifecycle hooks, SSR, file-based routing, and deployment. Use when the user needs to build Svelte components, create SvelteKit applications, implement reactivity patterns, or configure Svelte with Vite.
