• •Syllabus schedule/deadline pinpoint analysis

Commands

# Legacy PDF-only command
node "{baseDir}/scripts/read_pdf.mjs" --file "/path/to/your/document.pdf"

# Unified reader (PDF/DOCX/Image) + optional schedule analysis
python3 "{baseDir}/scripts/read_docs.py" \
  --path "$HOME/Desktop/syllabus" \
  --analyze-schedule \
  --save "$HOME/Desktop/syllabus/syllabus_schedule_report.md" \
  --json-out "$HOME/Desktop/syllabus/syllabus_schedule_report.json"

# Shortcut wrapper for syllabus folder
bash "$HOME/openclaw_pro/workspace/scripts/syllabus_pinpoint.sh" \

Output contract

• •ANALYSIS_STATUS=ok|error
• •FILES_SCANNED=...
• •EVENTS_FOUND=...
