About this skill

Markdown Beautifier

Overview

Turn rough text or data into publication-ready Markdown with clear hierarchy, tables, and boxed callouts. Prefer concise structure over long prose.

Quick Start

./scripts/generate_report.sh \
  --input notes.txt \
  --output report.md \
  --style technical

Styles:

  • technical: metrics + code fence
  • summary: short bullets + full content
  • podcast: outline + raw notes

Workflow

  1. Identify the output goal (brief, technical, or narrative).
  2. Normalize the input (trim noise, keep the useful lines).
  3. Add a clear structure: title, summary, details.
  4. Use tables for counts or comparisons.
  5. Use ASCII boxes only for key callouts.

Formatting Patterns

ASCII box:

+----------------------------------------------+
| NOTE: Keep the box short and skimmable.      |
+----------------------------------------------+

Table:

| Category | Count | Status |
|:---------|------:|:------:|
| Alpha    |    42 |   ok   |
| Beta     |    17 |  warn  |

Callout:

> Note: This section summarizes the core risks.

Script

generate_report.sh

  • Reads a text or markdown file and writes a structured markdown report.
  • Supports --style technical|summary|podcast and optional --title.
./scripts/generate_report.sh \
  --input data.txt \
  --output report.md \
  --style summary \
  --title "Weekly Update"

When not to use it

  • When the input is already perfectly formatted Markdown
  • When the goal is to generate new content rather than format existing text

Limitations

  • Focuses on Markdown output format
  • Prefers concise structure over long prose
  • ASCII boxes are used only for key callouts

How it compares

This skill specifically transforms raw text into presentation-ready Markdown with structured elements like tables and ASCII diagrams, unlike general text formatting.
