Converts Markdown files to beautifully styled HTML with inline CSS, optimized for WeChat Official Account and other platforms.

Script Directory

Agent Execution: Determine this SKILL.md directory as SKILL_DIR, then use ${SKILL_DIR}/​scripts/<name>.ts.

Preferences (EXTEND.md)

Use Bash to check EXTEND.md existence (priority order):

# Check project-level first
test -f .baoyu-skills/​baoyu-markdown-to-html/​EXTEND.md && echo "project"

# Then user-level (cross-platform: $HOME works on macOS/​Linux/​WSL)
test -f "$HOME/​.baoyu-skills/​baoyu-markdown-to-html/​EXTEND.md" && echo "user"

Workflow

Step 0: Pre-check (Chinese Content)

Condition: Only execute if input file contains Chinese text.

Detection:

1. Read input markdown file
2. Check if content contains CJK characters (Chinese/​Japanese/​Korean)
3. If no CJK content → skip to Step 1

Format Suggestion:

If CJK content detected AND baoyu-format-markdown skill is available:

Use AskUserQuestion to ask whether to format first. Formatting can fix:

• Bold markers with punctuation inside causing ** parse failures
• CJK/​English spacing issues

If user agrees: Invoke baoyu-format-markdown skill to format the file, then use formatted file as input.

If user declines: Continue with original file.

Step 1: Confirm Theme

Before converting, use AskUserQuestion to confirm the theme (unless user already specified):

Step 2: Convert

npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/​scripts/​main.ts <markdown_file> --theme <theme>

Step 3: Report Result

Display the output path from JSON result. If backup was created, mention it.

Usage

npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/​scripts/​main.ts <markdown_file> [options]

Options:

Examples:

# Basic conversion (uses default theme, removes first heading)
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/​scripts/​main.ts article.md

# With specific theme
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/​scripts/​main.ts article.md --theme grace

# Keep the first heading in content
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/​scripts/​main.ts article.md --keep-title

# Override title
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/​scripts/​main.ts article.md --title "My Article"

Output

File location: Same directory as input markdown file.

• Input: /​path/​to/​article.md
• Output: /​path/​to/​article.html

Conflict handling: If HTML file already exists, it will be backed up first:

• Backup: /​path/​to/​article.html.bak-YYYYMMDDHHMMSS

JSON output to stdout:

{
  "title": "Article Title",
  "author": "Author Name",
  "summary": "Article summary...",
  "htmlPath": "/​path/​to/​article.html",
  "backupPath": "/​path/​to/​article.html.bak-20260128180000",
  "contentImages": [
    {
      "placeholder": "MDTOHTMLIMGPH_1",
      "localPath": "/​path/​to/​img.png",
      "originalPath": "imgs/​image.png"
    }
  ]
}
