rendermark_skill

Overview

This skill provides professional markdown rendering, export, and publishing capabilities. It converts markdown into styled HTML, PDF, DOCX, images, and slide decks, supporting themes, Mermaid diagrams, KaTeX math, and syntax highlighting. It also offers publishing, visual diffs, batch export, and GitHub sync features.

How this skill works

The skill accepts markdown input and uses themed renderers to produce styled HTML or intermediate documents. It can call browser-based engines to export PDFs and images, or generate DOCX via document exporters. Publishing tools upload documents to a Rendermark service or Google Docs (with OAuth), while validation, diffs, and batch operations run local or remote checks before export.

When to use it

• You need a polished HTML, PDF, or DOCX version of markdown for sharing or printing.
• You want images or slide decks generated directly from markdown with diagrams and math.
• You need to publish markdown to a shareable link or sync content to Google Docs.
• You want visual diffs to compare two markdown versions before merging or releasing.
• You must batch-export many markdown files or sync content from a GitHub repository.

Best practices

• Provide well-structured markdown with frontmatter for title, author, and metadata to improve exports.
• Include fenced code blocks, Mermaid diagrams, and KaTeX expressions in standard formats for reliable rendering.
• Install a local Chrome/Chromium or configure a browserless API key for reliable PDF and image exports.
• Use the validation tool before publishing or exporting to catch common markdown issues early.
• Manage API keys and Google OAuth credentials securely; prefer config files or environment variables.

Example use cases

• Export a project README to a PDF with a table of contents and syntax-highlighted code samples.
• Publish a technical guide to a shareable Rendermark link and send access to teammates.
• Convert lecture notes with KaTeX math and Mermaid diagrams into presentation slides.
• Compare two versions of documentation with a visual diff before merging changes.
• Batch-export an entire docs directory from a GitHub repo into HTML and PDF archives.
