Which tools does md-lint use for formatting?

It uses Prettier for general code formatting and markdownlint-cli2 for enforcing specific Markdown style rules and structural best practices.

Does this skill work on single files or the whole project?

It is flexible; you can specify individual file paths as arguments or run it without arguments to process every Markdown file in the repository.

Can md-lint fix all Markdown errors automatically?

While it can auto-fix many issues, certain rules (like MD060) require manual intervention. In these cases, the skill will ask the user for permission to fix them manually.

Why should I use md-lint after writing Markdown?

Using the skill ensures that human-readable files are professional, consistent, and free of syntax errors that could affect rendering on platforms like GitHub or GitLab.
