Destructive

This tool calls the Actor "rowfeed/pdf-table-extractor" and retrieves its output results. Actor description: Convert PDF tables to Excel, CSV and JSON: bank statements, invoices, price lists and reports. Upload PDFs or paste links; get every table as rows plus one Excel file per PDF. Finds ruled and unruled tables. $3 per 1,000 pages with tables + $0.10 per 1,000 pages read.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`mode`	No	Auto reads tables drawn with lines, and on pages without them finds tables by how the words line up (bank statements, price lists). Lines only or Aligned text only force one method. Example values: "auto"	auto
`pdfs`	No	Upload PDFs or paste links to them (one per line): bank statements, invoices, price lists, reports. Up to 200 per run, 50 MB each. Example values: ["https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kristerkb-pixel/rowfeed-seo-mcp/main/examples/bank-statement-example.pdf"]
`lastPage`	No	Last page to read. 0 = to the end.
`waitSecs`	No	Max seconds (0–45, default 30) to cap the wait for the Actor run to reach terminal state. For long-running Actors the response returns at the cap with the current run status; follow `nextStep` to poll via get-actor-run. Set to 0 to fire-and-forget.
`firstPage`	No	First page to read (1 = the first page). 0 = from the start.
`maxPagesPerPdf`	No	Read at most this many pages of each PDF. Each page read costs $0.0001; pages with tables $0.003 more. Example values: 100
`firstRowIsHeader`	No	Use each table's first row as column names. Off: columns are col_1, col_2, ... and the first row is a data row. Example values: true

Output Schema

Name	Required	Description
`tip`	No	Advisory guidance RAG Web Browser wrote to its key-value store under the reserved "TIP" key
`runId`	Yes	Actor run ID
`stats`	No	Run statistics
`status`	Yes	Run status: READY \| RUNNING \| TIMING-OUT \| TIMED-OUT \| ABORTING \| ABORTED \| SUCCEEDED \| FAILED
`actorId`	Yes	Stable Apify Actor ID from the run record
`summary`	Yes	Past-tense summary of the run state
`exitCode`	No	Actor process exit code; populated for terminal states (especially FAILED)
`nextStep`	Yes	One primary follow-up action with identifiers interpolated
`storages`	Yes	Dataset and key-value store metadata, keyed by alias. "default" is always the primary entry.
`actorName`	No	"username/actor-name"
`startedAt`	No	ISO timestamp when the run started
`finishedAt`	No	ISO timestamp when the run finished (terminal states only)
`statusMessage`	No	Pass-through from Apify run.statusMessage
`apifyConsoleUrl`	No	Personalized Apify Console link to the run; present only for Console sessions

A4/5.0

Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Adds genuinely useful behavior beyond the annotations: per-page pricing ($3/1,000 pages with tables + $0.10/1,000 pages read) and the output shape (rows plus one Excel file per PDF). However, annotations declare destructiveHint=true and the description never explains what that means here — an agent could read that as file deletion. Cost is disclosed; the destructive flag is left dangling.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The first sentence ('calls the Actor ... and retrieves its output results') is near-boilerplate inherited from the wrapper framing, but the Actor description that follows is dense and front-loads the capability, then inputs, then outputs, then price. Little waste beyond the opener.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Output schema exists and all seven parameters are fully described in the schema, including the waitSecs polling/nextStep behavior, so the description only needs to establish capability, input options, cost and output format — all present. Nothing an agent needs to invoke it correctly is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description's pricing sentence loosely corresponds to maxPagesPerPdf and the table-finder sentence to mode, but the schema already documents both in more detail (including cost per page), so little unique meaning is added.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource: convert PDF tables to Excel, CSV and JSON, with named input forms (PDFs or links) and named table-finding modes ('Finds ruled and unruled tables'). Clearly distinguishable from every listed sibling, all of which are scrapers/trackers rather than document converters.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives concrete use-case context — bank statements, invoices, price lists, reports — and both input routes (upload vs paste links), which tells an agent when this is the right tool. It stops short of explicit when-not-to-use guidance or naming an alternative for non-PDF documents.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
