| Best use | Best for a developer or analyst extracting text from several document formats before search or supplying selected passages to an AI agent. It provides a repeatable CLI command and Python library, while requiring review against the original. It is not intended for layout-perfect document publishing. | Best for a developer debugging a local or test web UI who wants a DSH agent to see the page and network evidence in the same session. It reduces manual copying and supports interactive inspection after an explicit request. Avoid it for sensitive production accounts or if broad browser permissions are unacceptable. | Best for a developer or small team that wants repeatable API checks with explicit conditions stored beside the code. It links request data and identifies failing assertions without repeating manual inspection. It does not replace browser tests or test-environment setup; curl may be enough for a one-off request. |
