Wrote a tool two years ago that does some of the PDF-tests. But more could be added: https://github.com/jonaslejon/malicious-pdf
I recently used this approach on fpdf2: PR #780 Hardening Pylint config
I recently used [0] Playwright for Python and [1] pypandoc to build a scraper that fetches a webpage and turns the content into sane markdown so that it can be passed into an AI coding chat [2].
They are both very gentle dependencies to add to a project. Both packages contain built in or scriptable methods to install their underlying platform-specific binary dependencies. This means you don't need to ask end users to use some complex, platform-specific package manager to install playwright and pandoc.
Playwright let's you scrape pages that rely on js. Pandoc is great at turning HTML into sensible markdown. Below is an excerpt of the openai pricing docs [3] that have been scraped to markdown [4] in this manner.
