How does the Add Shape work?

Draw rectangles, circles, and lines on a PDF for diagram annotation, callouts, or visual emphasis. Each shape is prefixed with its kind: "rect: page, x, y, w, h" / "circle: page, cx, cy, radius" / "line: page, x1, y1, x2, y2". Optional fill renders shapes semi-transparently — useful for "circle this region" callouts. Lines are always single-stroke.
