Quick Start Guide for AI Agents

Core Workflow

1. Install dependencies: On first execution, install the ADP CLI tool and dependencies by following the instructions in references/examples.md.
2. Discover commands: Run adp schema to get the machine-readable JSON spec of all commands, parameters, types, and defaults.
3. Authentication: On first execution, run adp config get to verify credentials. If no valid configuration exists, prompt the user to provide an API Key.
4. Check Application: On first execution, retrieve the application list via adp app-id list. For subsequent executions, prioritize adp app-id cache (cached in context). If the cache is unavailable, refresh it by calling adp app-id list again.
5. Execute: Run adp extract url <URL> --app-id <ID> or adp parse url <URL> --app-id <ID>.
6. Query: Check results asynchronously with adp extract query <task_id> or adp parse query <task_id>.
7. Error handling: When a command fails, parse the stderr JSON to determine error type and recovery action. See references/error-handling.md.

Common Scenarios → Command Mapping

Note:

• The adp extract command has built-in document parsing capabilities. After ADP automatically parses the document, it performs structured extraction. Therefore, when users need to extract the structured content of the document, there is no need to use apd for parsing.
• URL list file format: A plain text file where each line is a URL pointing to a document to be processed.

Quick Reference for Common Commands

# Command Discovery (for Agent introspection)
adp schema

# Configuration Check
adp config get

# Query Applications (First Use)
adp app-id list

# Document Extraction (Invoice/Receipt)
adp extract url <file URL> --app-id <app_id>

# Document Parsing (Long Document)
adp parse url <file URL> --app-id <app_id>

# Base64 Input
adp extract base64 <base64_string> --app-id <app_id> --file-name invoice.pdf
adp parse base64 <base64_string> --app-id <app_id> --file-name document.pdf

# Asynchronous Query
adp extract query <task_id>
adp parse query <task_id>
adp parse query <task_id1> <task_id2> --watch  # batch query with auto-poll

# Batch Processing
adp extract local <folder path> --app-id <app_id> --export <folder path> --concurrency 2
adp parse local <folder path> --app-id <app_id> --export <folder path> --concurrency 2

Performance Optimization Suggestions

• Reuse APP_ID: Cache it in the context after one query to avoid calling app-id list every time.
• Sync First: For small files (<20MB), prioritize using synchronous calls to avoid asynchronous polling.
• Batch Processing: Processes multiple documents via url <URL list file path> or local <folder path> in a single run, without looped invocations. Default --concurrency 2.
• Local Cache: Store commonly used APP_IDs in environment variables or configuration files.
• Priority Extraction: If only key information needs to be extracted, use extract instead of parse (faster).
• Use --retry for batch: Set --retry 2 for batch processing to auto-recover from transient failures.
• Use --timeout for large files: Increase --timeout for files >20MB. Default is 900s.

Detailed Usage Steps

Step 1: Obtain the Installation Package

For details, see references/examples.md

Step 2: Obtain and Configure API Key

#### 1. Access the ADP Portal to Obtain Credentials

We provide independent Public Cloud access addresses for domestic and international users, which need to be configured separately by region. Accessing nearby can better ensure high-speed and stable calls across the network.

#### 2. Get API Key after registration/login New users need to register an ADP account first, and after registration, they can get 100 free credits/month - After logging in, click on the personal avatar, and you can directly access the API_Key entry.

#### 3. Complete the authentication configuration For details, see references/examples.md

#### 4. Verify the configuration For details, see references/examples.md

Notes: 1. If API Key and API Base URL have been configured, the configuration information needs to be stored in environment variables to avoid uploading configuration items every time they are used. 2. If API Key and API Base URL have not been configured yet, they need to be configured according to the above steps.

Step 3: Upload Documents

After completing the authentication of the API Key, guide the user to upload local files or specify the file URL. After the user uploads the document, they can query the supported application scope of ADP and select the appropriate application for document parsing and extraction. If no suitable application is found, they can choose to create a custom extraction application, configure exclusive fields and parsing modes to meet the personalized document processing requirements.

Step 4: Query Available Applications

This function is used to query the built-in applications under the user's account (such as invoices/receipts, orders, common cards and certificates in China region, etc. which are standardized documents). Based on the app-label, you can assist in filtering the suitable application IDs. If no suitable application is found, you can choose to create a custom extraction application, configure specific fields and parsing modes to meet the personalized document processing requirements.

Notes:

1. For the first execution, use adp app-id list. For subsequent executions, prefer to use adp app-id cache (cache the application ID in the context). If the cache becomes invalid or there are no suitable applications in the cache, call adp app-id list again to update the cache.

For detailed examples of commands and responses, see references/examples.md.

Step 5: Add custom extraction application

Support creating custom extraction applications, and independently add business-specific extraction fields as needed, and improve the detailed description of each field; the system will accurately identify the document content based on the configured fields and definitions, and complete customized information extraction for personalized documents and non-standard forms.

For example commands, responses, and detailed parameter descriptions, please refer to references/examples.md

Step 6: Execute Document Processing

Single Document Parsing

Perform document parsing based on the selected application ID, which will return a formatted JSON result containing information such as document content, element position coordinates, OCR Confidence Level, etc.

For examples of commands and responses, please refer to references/examples.md

Single Document Extraction

Perform document extraction based on the selected application ID, which will return a formatted JSON result containing information such as extraction fields, extraction results, and Confidence Level.

For examples of commands and responses, please refer to references/examples.md

Batch Document Processing

ADP supports batch processing capabilities. Users can upload multiple file URLs or local folder paths at once, and the system will automatically identify each document type and match the most suitable application for processing, greatly improving the efficiency of batch document processing.

For detailed command examples, see references/examples.md

Note: The number of concurrent requests is limited to 1 for free users, while enterprise users can adjust it according to their needs, with a maximum support of 2.

Asynchronous Processing (Suitable for Large Documents)

ADP provides asynchronous processing capabilities, allowing users to choose asynchronous mode to perform document parsing and extraction. The system will return a task ID, and users can periodically query the task status and results through the query interface, which is suitable for processing complex documents or batch documents with long processing times. If the document uploaded by the user is larger than 20MB or contains more than 200 pages, it is recommended to use the asynchronous processing mode.

For examples of commands and responses, see references/examples.md
