How do I include a pipe character inside a table cell?

You can include a literal pipe character by using the escaped version (\|) to prevent the Markdown parser from interpreting it as a cell separator.

How does the skill handle tables that are too wide for the screen?

The skill suggests several strategies, including wrapping tables in a scrollable HTML div, using vertical key-value layouts, or reducing column counts to improve readability.

Can I add multi-line content to a standard Markdown table?

Standard Markdown tables do not support multi-line cells. This skill provides workarounds like using HTML tags or switching to a full HTML table block for complex layouts.

Does this skill follow markdownlint standards?

Yes, it incorporates best practices related to rules like MD055 and MD056 to ensure consistent pipe styling and matching column counts.
