SnapOtter 8532f3227b docs: audit all 157 tool pages against live schemas
Reconcile every tool page's parameters, defaults, and response shape against the tool's Zod settings schema and executionHint in code. Notable fixes: color-palette (add count + format params, hex output, median-cut algorithm), favicon (add 5 params, was documented as having none), qr-generate (add logoDataUri), convert (add ppm/eps/tga formats), video-loudnorm (-16 LUFS not -14), smart-crop (async 202 not sync 200), images-to-video (1080x1080 square), and several output-filename and behavior-note corrections.

Also normalize API endpoint paths to /api/v1/tools/<id> (no modality segment) and standardize curl examples on the Docker API port 1349. Verified with a clean docs build.

Linearize a PDF for fast web viewing (progressive download).

Web-Optimize PDF

Linearize a PDF so it can be progressively downloaded and displayed in web browsers without waiting for the full file.

API Endpoint

POST /api/v1/tools/linearize-pdf

Accepts multipart form data with a PDF file. No settings field is required.

Parameters

This tool has no settings parameters. Upload the PDF file directly.

Example Request

curl -X POST http://localhost:1349/api/v1/tools/linearize-pdf \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer si_your-api-key" \
  -F "file=@document.pdf"

Example Response

{
  "jobId": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
  "downloadUrl": "/api/v1/download/a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890/document.pdf",
  "originalSize": 2450000,
  "processedSize": 2460000
}

Notes

  • Linearization rearranges the PDF's internal structure so the first page can render before the full file has downloaded.
  • The output file may be slightly larger than the input due to the added linearization data.
  • Already-linearized PDFs are re-linearized without issue.
