## Core Positioning

| Scenario | Input | Output | Goal |
|----------|-------|--------|------|
| **Scenario 1** | User idea (vague description) | Complete patent document + Search report | Grant rate + Inventiveness |
| **Scenario 2** | User draft (existing document) | Optimized patent document | Grant rate + Inventiveness |
| **Scenario 3** | Agency feedback (search report/prior art) | Optimization suggestions / Cancellation advice | Decision support |

**Boundary**: Does not handle Office Action (OA) responses - leave that to professional patent agencies.

## ⚠️ Security & Installation Guide

### System Dependencies

```bash
# 1. Install Pandoc (Markdown to Word conversion)
apt install pandoc

# 2. Install Node.js and mermaid-cli (Mermaid diagram rendering)
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | bash -
apt install nodejs
npm install -g @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli

# 3. Install Chromium (optional, for Playwright/Puppeteer)
playwright install chromium
```

### Security Considerations

| Risk | Description | Recommendation |
|------|-------------|----------------|
| Puppeteer --no-sandbox | Required when running as root, reduces browser sandboxing | Run in Docker container or non-root user |
| Network requests | Downloads PDFs and accesses third-party sites | Run in isolated environment |
| Default paths | Converter uses `/root/workspace/patent/new` as default | Verify working directory before running |

### Recommended Usage

```bash
# Option 1: Non-root user (recommended)
python convert_patents.py /path/to/patents

# Option 2: Docker container (isolated environment)
docker run -v /path/to/patents:/data your-image python convert_patents.py /data
```

### Credential Management

This skill depends on other skills that may require API keys or cookies:

| Skill | Credentials Needed |
|-------|-------------------|
| tavily-search | Tavily API key |
| aminer-open-academic | AMiner API key (optional) |

Configure credentials securely before use.
