Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Omitly MCP Tools (11)

find_sensitive_regions

Scans a PDF on-device and returns PII candidates — email/SSN/phone/card plus Australian identifiers (TFN, ABN, ACN, Medicare, Centrelink CRN, IHI, BSB; check-digit validated where a published algorithm exists) — with page + exact coordinates, so the agent selects by entity and never guesses geometr…

locate_text

Resolves literal strings the model supplies (names, addresses — anything regex can't catch) to their page + coordinates. The model does the recognition; the engine does the geometry.

check_redaction

Audits an ALREADY-redacted PDF and reports whether sensitive text still survives underneath the redaction marks, in prior incremental-update revisions, metadata, AcroForm fields, or attachments — the "did my black boxes actually remove the data?" check, with a coverage report scoping what was inspe…

extract_pdf_text

Extracts a PDF's full text, page by page, PII-MASKED BY DEFAULT so raw sensitive values never flood the model's context window. Each page's `spans` report the CHAR offset (not byte offset) and kind of every masked value, so an agent can still reason about position without seeing the raw value. `mas…
