Agent skill
rollup
Provides comprehensive guidance for Rollup bundler including configuration, plugins, code splitting, tree shaking, and multi-format library bundling. Use when the user asks about Rollup, needs to bundle JavaScript libraries, optimize output with tree shaking, or configure ESM/CJS builds.

SKILL.md
When to use this skill
Use this skill whenever the user wants to:
- Bundle JavaScript libraries with tree shaking and multi-format output (ESM/CJS/UMD)
- Configure Rollup input, output, plugins, and external dependencies
- Optimize bundle size with code splitting and dead code elimination
- Build libraries for npm distribution
How to use this skill
Workflow
- Configure — create
rollup.config.jswith input, output, and plugins - Build — run
rollup -cto generate bundles - Validate — check output formats, bundle size, and tree shaking effectiveness
- Publish — set
main,module, andexportsinpackage.json
Quick Start Example
// rollup.config.js
import resolve from '@rollup/plugin-node-resolve';
import commonjs from '@rollup/plugin-commonjs';
import terser from '@rollup/plugin-terser';
export default {
input: 'src/index.js',
output: [
{
file: 'dist/index.cjs.js',
format: 'cjs',
sourcemap: true,
},
{
file: 'dist/index.esm.js',
format: 'es',
sourcemap: true,
},
],
external: ['react', 'react-dom'], // Don't bundle peer deps
plugins: [
resolve(),
commonjs(),
terser(), // Minify for production
],
};
# Build
npx rollup -c
# Watch mode for development
npx rollup -c --watch
// package.json — library distribution fields
{
"main": "dist/index.cjs.js",
"module": "dist/index.esm.js",
"exports": {
".": {
"import": "./dist/index.esm.js",
"require": "./dist/index.cjs.js"
}
},
"files": ["dist"],
"sideEffects": false
}
Code Splitting Example
// Dynamic imports create separate chunks
export default {
input: 'src/index.js',
output: {
dir: 'dist',
format: 'es',
chunkFileNames: 'chunks/[name]-[hash].js',
},
plugins: [resolve(), commonjs()],
};
Best Practices
- Mark peer dependencies as
externalto avoid bundling them - Enable sourcemaps for debugging; disable in production if not needed
- Use
sideEffects: falseinpackage.jsonto enable maximum tree shaking - For large dependencies, externalize them to reduce bundle size
- Use code splitting with dynamic
import()for on-demand loading

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.
