User Input Tools

When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):

1. **Prefer built-in user-input tools** exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g., AskUserQuestion, request_user_input, clarify, ask_user, or any equivalent.

2. **Fallback**: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.

3. **Batching**: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.

Concrete AskUserQuestion references below are examples — substitute the local equivalent in other runtimes.

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 in priority order — the first one found wins:

| Priority | Path | Scope |

|----------|------|-------|

| 1 | .baoyu-skills/baoyu-markdown-to-html/EXTEND.md | Project |

| 2 | ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/baoyu-skills/baoyu-markdown-to-html/EXTEND.md | XDG |

| 3 | $HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-markdown-to-html/EXTEND.md | User home |

If none found, use defaults.

**EXTEND.md supports**: default theme, custom CSS variables, code block style, mermaid defaults (mermaid_theme, mermaid_scale, mermaid_background).

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: Determine Theme

View full documentation

**Theme resolution order** (first match wins):

1. User explicitly specified theme (CLI --theme or conversation)

2. EXTEND.md default_theme (this skill's own EXTEND.md, checked in Step 0)

3. baoyu-post-to-wechat EXTEND.md default_theme (cross-skill fallback)

4. If none found → use AskUserQuestion to confirm

**Cross-skill EXTEND.md check** (only if this skill's EXTEND.md has no default_theme):

Read $HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md if it exists and look for a default_theme: line. Use the value if present; otherwise fall through.

**If theme is resolved from EXTEND.md**: Use it directly, do NOT ask the user.

**If no default found**: use AskUserQuestion to confirm a theme from the Themes (#themes) table below.

### 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) |

| --mermaid-theme <name> | Mermaid theme: default, forest, dark, neutral, base | default |

| --mermaid-scale <N> | Mermaid render scale (positive number ≤ 4) | 2 |

| --mermaid-width <N> | Mermaid target display width in CSS px; PNG is rendered at width × scale pixels when the diagram is narrower than this | 860 |

| --mermaid-bg <value> | Mermaid background: white, transparent, or #hex | white |

| --no-mermaid | Skip Mermaid PNG rendering; emit <pre class="mermaid"> fallback | false |

| --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 |

| gray | #A9A9A9 | Smoke Gray |

| 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

**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"
    }
  ],
  "mermaidImages": [
    {
      "hash": "a1b2c3d4e5f6",
      "localPath": "/path/to/imgs/.mermaid-cache/mermaid-a1b2c3d4e5f6.png",
      "cached": false
    }
  ]
}

**Mermaid rendering**: Code blocks fenced as `mermaid are rendered to PNGs via headless Chrome (CDP) and cached at imgs/.mermaid-cache/mermaid-<hash>.png. The cache key includes the code, theme, scale, target width, background, and mermaid version. Add imgs/.mermaid-cache/ to .gitignore if you do not want generated diagrams checked in. Requires Chrome/Chromium/Edge on the system; otherwise the block falls back to <pre class="mermaid">…</pre> and conversion still succeeds.

Themes

| Theme | Description |

|-------|-------------|

| default | Classic - traditional layout, centered title with bottom border, H2 with white text on colored background |

| grace | Elegant - text shadow, rounded cards, refined blockquotes (by @brzhang) |

| simple | Minimal - modern minimal
