scan-to-vector is an agent skill (prompt + Python scripts) that rebuilds scanned pages as searchable PDFs with vector diagrams rather than just OCR text layers. It uses a page ledger, overlay review, and benchmarked agent performance to ensure fidelity, and targets old books, manuals, and charts where layout reconstruction matters.
Target audience: developers and archivists working with scanned documents, AI agent users
