Financial Document Processor

Overview

This skill provides guidance for extracting structured data from financial documents (invoices, receipts, statements, etc.) using OCR and PDF text extraction. It emphasizes data safety practices that prevent catastrophic failures from destructive operations.

Critical Data Safety Principles

NEVER perform destructive operations on source data without verification or backup.

Before any file processing:

1. Create a backup of all source files before processing
2. Work on copies, not originals
3. Verify outputs match expectations before any cleanup
4. Use atomic operations (copy → verify → delete) instead of direct moves
