LlamaIndex Releases LiteParse Agent Skill for Local Document Parsing

ยท Updated

LiteParse, an open-source local document parser from LlamaIndex, now ships as a coding agent skill compatible with Claude Code, Cursor, and other coding agents. The skill โ€” installed via Vercel's skills utility from the llamaparse-agent-skills package โ€” gives agents the ability to parse PDFs, extract text from DOCX files, screenshot document pages, and process local files within their reasoning process.

This puts document parsing directly inside the agent loop. Instead of routing files through external services, an agent can read a PDF, pull out text as JSON, screenshot specific pages at custom DPI, or run OCR on scanned documents โ€” all running locally on the developer's machine.

Point your coding agent at a document-heavy task and LiteParse handles it inline. Configure defaults in liteparse.config.json for OCR language, output format, and DPI so the agent skips repetitive setup on every run.
