Polishes the docs for people installing the package, and makes the skill portable across agents.

Changes

  • README: rewritten for end users. Leads with how each page is routed and why, then install, the localctx CLI with sample output, the library API, and the agent skill. Adds an honest requirements and scope section (macOS, Vision needs a real graphics environment, large-document retrieval is out of scope).
  • Skill (SKILL.md): invokes the installed localctx command, with the bundled script as a relative-path fallback, instead of relying on a Claude-specific path variable. Now works in Codex and other compatible agents. Documents the flat JSON fields (source, text, text_tokens, image_tokens, image).
  • CHANGELOG: notes that OCR needs a normal macOS graphics environment.
  • Prose and metadata: removed em dashes throughout (README, SKILL, CHANGELOG, package docstrings, the PyPI description, and the OCR readme).
  • .gitignore: generalized the local-settings comment.

No code behavior changes. Verified locally: ruff, ruff format, mypy (strict), pytest (56).

Lead with what the tool decides and why, then install, the CLI with sample
output, the library, and the agent skill, with an honest requirements and
scope section.
Invoke the installed localctx command (with the bundled script as a fallback by
relative path) instead of relying on a Claude-specific path variable, so the
skill works across compatible agents. Describe the flat JSON fields.
OCR needs a normal macOS graphics environment and will not run in a headless
sandbox that lacks one.
