WiseOCR Skill (powered by WiseDiag)
A high-accuracy OCR tool that converts a single PDF or image file into Markdown format. After processing, the Markdown result is automatically saved to disk — no additional saving is needed.
Supported formats: PDF, jpg, jpeg, png, webp, gif, bmp, tiff.
Installation
pip install -r requirements.txt🔑 API Key Setup (Required)
Get your API key: 👉 https://console.wisediag.com/apiKeyManage
The API key MUST be set as an environment variable. The script reads it automatically.
export WISEDIAG_API_KEY=your_api_keyHow to Process a File (Step-by-Step)
NEVER call any API or HTTP endpoint directly. ONLY use the script below.
Step 1: Set the API key (if not already set):
export WISEDIAG_API_KEY=your_api_keyStep 2: Run the script with the input file:
cd scripts
# Single PDF
python3 wiseocr.py -i "/path/to/input_filename.pdf"
# Single image
python3 wiseocr.py -i "/path/to/scan.png"IMPORTANT: If the input file has been copied or renamed (e.g. to a temp path), always pass -n with the original filename (without extension) so the output file is named correctly:
python3 wiseocr.py -i "/tmp/ocr_input.pdf" -n "my_report"
# Output saved to: ~/.openclaw/workspace/WiseOCR/my_report.mdThe Markdown result is saved to ~/.openclaw/workspace/WiseOCR/{name}.md automatically. No additional saving is needed.
