This skill parses Markdown documents and converts them into structured JSON format, making it easier for Claude to understand and work with document content programmatically.

## When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Extract structured data from Markdown files
• Convert documentation into JSON for processing
• Analyze document structure and content
• Process Markdown files programmatically

## Processing Steps

### Step 1: Load and Validate Markdown File

• Read the Markdown file from the provided path
• Validate file exists and is readable
• Handle encoding issues (default to UTF-8)

### Step 2: Parse Document Structure

• Extract headings (H1-H6) with their hierarchy
• Identify paragraphs and text content
• Locate tables and convert to structured format
• Find code blocks with their language annotations
• Detect lists (ordered and unordered)
• Identify links, images, and other inline elements

### Step 3: Convert Tables to Arrays

• Parse table headers as column names
• Convert each row to a JSON object
• Preserve cell content with proper escaping
• Handle merged cells appropriately

### Step 4: Preserve Code Blocks

• Maintain original formatting and indentation
• Preserve language annotations
• Keep special characters and syntax intact
• Handle multi-line code blocks correctly

### Step 5: Generate Structured JSON Output

• Create hierarchical structure reflecting document organization
• Include metadata like word count, heading count, etc.
• Preserve relationships between elements
• Ensure JSON is valid and well-formed

## Output Format

The structured JSON includes: ``json { "metadata": { "title": "Document Title", "word_count": 1500, "heading_count": 8, "table_count": 3, "code_block_count": 5 }, "structure": { "headings": [ {"level": 1, "text": "Main Title", "id": "main-title"} ], "paragraphs": [ {"text": "Content...", "word_count": 120} ], "tables": [ { "headers": ["Column1", "Column2"], "rows": [ {"Column1": "data1", "Column2": "data2"} ] } ], "code_blocks": [ { "language": "python", "content": "def example():\n pass" } ] } } ``

## Error Handling

• Handle missing files gracefully
• Manage encoding issues
• Deal with malformed Markdown
• Report parsing errors clearly
• Validate JSON output format
