Score: 5.8/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 5, Documentation: 7, Utility: 6)

A CLI tool that converts PDFs to dark mode by inverting colors and applying custom themes while preserving the table of contents and links. It's interesting because it addresses a common accessibility and eye-strain issue for developers and readers who consume PDFs in low-light environments, offering multiple theme options beyond simple inversion.

Target audience: developers, technical writers, students, anyone who reads PDFs regularly
