pdftract-145s8: SDK Quickstart Documentation (Rust & Python)

Work Completed

Issue

Both docs/user-docs/src/sdk/rust.md and docs/user-docs/src/sdk/python.md already existed and were comprehensive. However, the Python SDK docs contained broken cross-references to a non-existent ../integrations/mcp-clients.md path.

Changes Made

File: docs/user-docs/src/sdk/python.md

Fixed broken cross-references from ../integrations/mcp-clients.md to ../cli/mcp.md (3 occurrences)
Updated link text from "MCP Client Configuration Guide" to "MCP Server Documentation"
Verified all examples match the actual Python SDK API in crates/pdftract-py/python/pdftract/__init__.py

Verification

PASS: Documentation files exist

docs/user-docs/src/sdk/rust.md — 188 lines, comprehensive Rust SDK quickstart
docs/user-docs/src/sdk/python.md — 251 lines, comprehensive Python SDK quickstart

PASS: Cross-references work

All Python SDK cross-references now point to valid ../cli/mcp.md path
Rust SDK docs have no broken cross-references
Both docs reference: ../json-schema-reference.md, ../cli/README.md, ../advanced/ocr.md

PASS: Examples are runnable and match actual API

Rust examples use correct SDK functions: extract(), extract_stream(), extract_text(), etc. from pdftract_core::sdk
Python examples use correct API: extract(), extract_text(), extract_markdown(), extract_stream(), search(), get_metadata(), hash(), classify(), verify_receipt()
Verified Python SDK implementation at crates/pdftract-py/python/pdftract/__init__.py

PASS: mdBook renders cleanly

cd docs/user-docs && mdbook build
# Output: INFO HTML book written to `/home/coding/pdftract/docs/user-docs/build/user-docs`

PASS: Both SDK docs include required sections

Installation steps
Basic extract example
Options/Configuration
Error handling
Feature flags reference (Rust) / Exception hierarchy (Python)
Streaming examples
Remote PDF support
Cross-references to other docs

Acceptance Criteria Status

Criterion	Status
