Will it break my code blocks or tables?

No, the skill specifically excludes code blocks, tables, and frontmatter from wrapping rules, ensuring that your technical data and syntax remain perfectly intact.

What is hybrid line wrapping?

Hybrid wrapping prefers breaking lines at sentence or clause boundaries (like periods or commas) rather than arbitrary word counts, which makes the raw Markdown source text much easier to read.

Why does the skill enforce ATX headings?

ATX headings (using #) are the modern standard for Markdown. They are easier to maintain and more visually consistent than Setext (underlined) headings, especially across different Markdown parsers.

Why does this skill wrap text at 80 characters?

Wrapping at 80 characters ensures documentation is easily readable on mobile devices and terminal windows, while creating cleaner git diffs by keeping prose changes localized to specific lines.

Developer Tools

Standardizes Markdown documentation with diff-friendly formatting conventions to ensure clean git histories and readable prose.

This skill enforces canonical Markdown formatting rules specifically designed for version control and collaborative environments. It implements a sophisticated hybrid 80-character line-wrapping algorithm that prioritizes sentence and clause boundaries, ensuring that documentation remains readable on mobile devices while producing clean, logical git diffs. By automating heading styles, list spacing, and reference-style links, it maintains high-quality documentation standards across team projects, making code reviews more efficient and documentation more maintainable.
