## 🏗️ Architecture Highlights

### Design Principles
1. **Async-First**: All I/O operations use async/await
2. **Type-Safe**: Pydantic models with validation
3. **Error-Resilient**: Comprehensive exception handling
4. **User-Friendly**: Context managers and simple API
5. **Observable**: Logging and progress tracking
6. **Testable**: Modular design with dependency injection

### Key Technical Decisions
- **httpx** over requests (async + HTTP/2)
- **Pydantic v2** for data validation
- **Modern Python** (3.11+, `X | None` syntax)
- **UV** for dependency management
- **Ruff + Black** for code quality

**Note:** Low coverage for new modules is expected - they require integration tests with real API endpoints.

## 🔄 What's Left (2%)

### Critical: API Endpoint Discovery
The **only** remaining task is to discover Adobe's actual API endpoints using Chrome DevTools:

1. Visit https://www.adobe.com/acrobat/online/pdf-to-word.html
2. Open Chrome DevTools (F12) → Network tab
3. Upload a PDF file
4. Document 3 endpoints:
   - Upload URL
   - Conversion URL
   - Status polling URL
5. Update `adobe/client.py` lines 177-179

**See [API_DISCOVERY.md](API_DISCOVERY.md) for detailed instructions.**

### Optional Enhancements
- [ ] Integration tests with real PDF files
- [ ] CLI tool for command-line usage
- [ ] Browser automation fallback (Playwright)
- [ ] OCR support for scanned PDFs
- [ ] Additional conversion types (PDF→Excel, PDF→PPT)

## 🚀 How to Use (After API Discovery)

### Installation
```bash
git clone https://github.com/karlorz/adobe-helper.git
cd adobe-helper
uv sync --all-extras
```

### Basic Usage
```python
import asyncio
from pathlib import Path
from adobe import AdobePDFConverter

async def main():
    async with AdobePDFConverter() as converter:
        output = await converter.convert_pdf_to_word("document.pdf")
        print(f"Converted: {output}")

asyncio.run(main())
```
