From the source SKILL.md

Extract structured data from documents and images using a vision-language model, the right way: schema-first, with verification on the fields that matter. VLMs are powerful at reading messy, varied documents that template OCR can't handle — but they can also confidently mis-read an exact value, so this skill pairs extraction with the faithfulness checks that make the output trustworthy.
