ytpMD — PDF-to-Markdown Engine for Technical Documentation & AI Workflows
High-performance, local-first PDF-to-chapter-based Markdown engine built for technical documentation, RAG pipelines, and AI-agent workflows. Slices PDFs by TOC, generates YAML frontmatter, breadcrumbs, and AGENTS.md manifests.
Executive Summary
ytpMD is a high-performance, local-first document processing engine that converts technical PDF manuals and books into clean, structured, chapter-segmented Markdown documentation. Rather than producing one large unmanageable file, ytpMD analyzes document structure and generates an organized documentation library with individual chapter notes, YAML frontmatter, token metrics, and AI agent manifests.
