See It In Action
Let me find the markdown file and then convert it.
Found release-notes.md. Let me read it, then convert using the WeChat-compatible skill.
Got it. Now let me convert it with the WeChat-compatible styling.
Let me check the saved styling preferences and set up the runtime.
Found your saved preferences: grace theme with blue color. The content has external links, but citation mode is off by default. Running the conversion now.
The skill scripts aren't installed yet. Let me check if there's a package to fetch.
The skill's scripts/ directory hasn't been fetched. Let me fetch the scripts from the GitHub repo.
Scripts are in place. Let me install dependencies and run the conversion.
Done. Your HTML is ready at:
release-notes.html — converted with your saved preferences (grace theme, blue color, 16px font).
- Title: 云脉科技 v3.2 合作伙伴发布公告
- Author: 市场部
- The first H1 heading was removed (standard for WeChat posts since the title is set separately in the editor)
- External links (Apache Arrow, migration guide, etc.) are kept inline (citation mode off)
You can copy-paste the HTML directly into the WeChat Official Account editor. Want me to open or preview it?
(That background clone task already completed earlier — no action needed.)
Let me know if you want any tweaks to the HTML, or if you're ready to paste it into the WeChat editor!

SKILL.md
Markdown to HTML Converter
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 {baseDir}. Resolve ${BUN_X} runtime: if bun installed → bun; if npx available → npx -y bun; else suggest installing bun. Replace {baseDir} and ${BUN_X} with actual values.
| Script | Purpose |
|---|---|
scripts/main.ts | Main entry point |
Preferences (EXTEND.md)
Check EXTEND.md existence (priority order):
# macOS, Linux, WSL, Git Bash
test -f .baoyu-skills/baoyu-markdown-to-html/EXTEND.md && echo "project"
test -f "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/baoyu-skills/baoyu-markdown-to-html/EXTEND.md" && echo "xdg"
test -f "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-markdown-to-html/EXTEND.md" && echo "user"
# PowerShell (Windows)
if (Test-Path .baoyu-skills/baoyu-markdown-to-html/EXTEND.md) { "project" }
$xdg = if ($env:XDG_CONFIG_HOME) { $env:XDG_CONFIG_HOME } else { "$HOME/.config" }
if (Test-Path "$xdg/baoyu-skills/baoyu-markdown-to-html/EXTEND.md") { "xdg" }

EXTEND.md Supports: Default theme | Custom CSS variables | Code block style
Workflow
Step 0: Pre-check (Chinese Content)
Condition: Only execute if input file contains Chinese text.
Detection:
- Read input markdown file
- Check if content contains CJK characters (Chinese/Japanese/Korean)
- 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: Determine Theme
Theme resolution order (first match wins):
- User explicitly specified theme (CLI
--themeor conversation) - EXTEND.md
default_theme(this skill's own EXTEND.md, checked in Step 0) baoyu-post-to-wechatEXTEND.mddefault_theme(cross-skill fallback)- If none found → use AskUserQuestion to confirm
Cross-skill EXTEND.md check (only if this skill's EXTEND.md has no default_theme):
# Check baoyu-post-to-wechat EXTEND.md for default_theme
test -f "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md" && grep -o 'default_theme:.*' "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md"
# PowerShell (Windows)
if (Test-Path "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md") { Select-String -Pattern 'default_theme:.*' -Path "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md" | ForEach-Object { $_.Matches.Value } }
If theme is resolved from EXTEND.md: Use it directly, do NOT ask the user.
If no default found: Use AskUserQuestion to confirm:
| Theme | Description |
|---|---|
default (Recommended) | Classic - traditional layout, centered title with bottom border, H2 with white text on colored background |
grace | Elegant - text shadow, rounded cards, refined blockquotes |
simple | Minimal - modern minimalist, asymmetric rounded corners, clean whitespace |
modern | Modern - large radius, pill-shaped titles, relaxed line height (pair with --color red for traditional red-gold style) |
Step 1.5: Determine Citation Mode
Default: Off. Do not ask by default.
Enable only if the user explicitly asks for "微信外链转底部引用", "底部引用", "文末引用", or passes --cite.
Behavior when enabled:
- Ordinary external links are rendered with numbered superscripts and collected under a final
引用链接section. https://mp.weixin.qq.com/...links stay as direct links and are not moved to the bottom.- Bare links where link text equals URL stay inline.
Step 2: Convert
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts <markdown_file> --theme <theme> [--cite]
Step 3: Report Result
Display the output path from JSON result. If backup was created, mention it.
Usage
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts <markdown_file> [options]
Options:
| Option | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
--theme <name> | Theme name (default, grace, simple, modern) | default |
--color <name|hex> | Primary color: preset name or hex value | theme default |
--font-family <name> | Font: sans, serif, serif-cjk, mono, or CSS value | theme default |
--font-size <N> | Font size: 14px, 15px, 16px, 17px, 18px | 16px |
--title <title> | Override title from frontmatter | |
--cite | Convert external links to bottom citations, append 引用链接 section | false (off) |
--keep-title | Keep the first heading in content | false (removed) |
--help | Show help |
Color Presets:
| Name | Hex | Label |
|---|---|---|
| blue | #0F4C81 | Classic Blue |
| green | #009874 | Emerald Green |
| vermilion | #FA5151 | Vibrant Vermilion |
| yellow | #FECE00 | Lemon Yellow |
| purple | #92617E | Lavender Purple |
| sky | #55C9EA | Sky Blue |
| rose | #B76E79 | Rose Gold |
| olive | #556B2F | Olive Green |
| black | #333333 | Graphite Black |

| pink | #FFB7C5 | Sakura Pink |
| red | #A93226 | China Red |
| orange | #D97757 | Warm Orange (modern default) |
Examples:
# Basic conversion (uses default theme, removes first heading)
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts article.md
# With specific theme
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts article.md --theme grace
# Theme with custom color
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts article.md --theme modern --color red
# Enable bottom citations for ordinary external links
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts article.md --cite
# Keep the first heading in content
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts article.md --keep-title
# Override title
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts article.md --title "My Article"
Output

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",
