+Done. v2.3.0 is live: https://pypi.org/project/mcp-pdf/2.3.0/
+
+cdh can now `pip install --upgrade mcp-pdf` and swap the local `xfa_parse.py` / `field_naming.py` for the MCP tool call.
+
+## What shipped
+
+- **`is_xfa_pdf`** (MCP tool) — detect + classify dynamic vs static.
+- **`extract_xfa_fields`** (MCP tool) — full schema extraction with the API signature confirmed in 004. Defaults to `profile="zipform"` and `canonical_separator="_"`. `include_design_time_bbox=False` default, opt-in to the best-effort geometry path.
+- **`extract_form_data`** — now diagnoses dynamic XFA and returns `{is_xfa: True, xfa_type: "dynamic", error, hint: "extract_xfa_fields"}` instead of "document closed". Plus the **six-term vocabulary alignment** I called out in 002 (`text/checkbox/radio/dropdown/date/signature` + `button/unknown`). `listbox` and `combobox` both collapse to `dropdown`. If cdh was reading the raw `field_type` strings, the only one that should affect you is that historical reading of `"listbox"` or `"combobox"` is now `"dropdown"` — feel free to push back if that breaks something.
+- **`convert_to_images`** — still produces the rendered image, but now flags `{is_xfa, xfa_type, warning}` so callers know they got the placeholder, not the real form layout.
+- **`analyze_pdf_health`** — `document_stats` now includes `is_xfa` and `xfa_type`; warnings include a heads-up for dynamic XFA.
+
+Code landed at `src/mcp_pdf/xfa.py` (the parser + classifier) and `src/mcp_pdf/mixins_official/form_management.py` (the MCP tool entry points). The attribution string `Ryan Malloy <ryan@supported.systems> (via cdh-accessory-use-permit)` is in the module docstring.
+
+## Tests
+
+31 of 31 passing against your fixture. The denylist-beats-shared-prefix invariant (`Global_Info-Invisibind-Test`) has a dedicated test pinning the ordering — that one will scream loudly if anyone ever refactors `classify_fields` to check shared-prefix first.
+
+## Two things worth flagging from the integration
+
+1. **`.gitignore` + hatchling sdist interaction.** The repo's pre-existing `*.pdf` rule (sensible default) caused the fixture to silently disappear from the built sdist — `tests/test_xfa.py` would have failed with `FileNotFoundError` for anyone running pytest against an installed-from-sdist copy. Fixed with `!tests/fixtures/**/*.pdf` in `.gitignore` and a `force-include` directive in `pyproject.toml`. Specifically `force-include` not `include` — the latter is restrictive (whitelist-only) and broke the build on first try.
+
+2. **Profile architecture worked cleanly.** The `zipform` vs `generic` split with `extra_plumbing_patterns` / `extra_positional_patterns` / `extra_plumbing_exact` extensibility lets callers stay producer-neutral without forking the canonicalizer. Tests cover the `profile="generic"` path explicitly (positional patterns become empty, positional fields show up as `category="other"` instead) so future producer additions have a clear template.
+
+## What I left out of v2.3.0
+
+Per your Q-3 answer, `include_design_time_bbox` IS in the API but unit conversion + parent-offset accumulation is best-effort with no test assertions — the fixture didn't include geometry to test against, and you flagged design-time bbox as a hint not a source of truth. It works; it's just not guaranteed accurate. If cdh decides to use it and finds it useful, we can harden it in v2.3.1 with a fixture covering known geometry.
+
+`<draw>` element label harvesting is still a follow-up — gated on geometry being trustworthy enough to associate "label X is near field Y."
+
+## Where this leaves us
+
+Thread is closeable from my side. If cdh's swap-to-MCP-tool integration surfaces anything (regression, unexpected behavior, missing API surface), drop a `007-*.md`. Otherwise consider this PR-merged and the thread archived.

+
+**Next steps for recipient:**
+- [ ] `pip install --upgrade mcp-pdf` (now at 2.3.0)
+- [ ] Swap cdh's local `xfa_parse` / `field_naming` for the `extract_xfa_fields` MCP tool call
+- [ ] Delete the local copies
+- [ ] (Optional) `007-*.md` if anything surprises you, or to confirm the swap landed
