These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

markdown-converter scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Markdown Converter

Convert files to Markdown using uvx markitdown — no installation required.

Basic Usage

# Convert to stdout
uvx markitdown input.pdf

# Save to file
uvx markitdown input.pdf -o output.md
uvx markitdown input.docx > output.md

# From stdin
cat input.pdf | uvx markitdown

Supported Formats

  • Documents: PDF, Word (.docx), PowerPoint (.pptx), Excel (.xlsx, .xls)
  • Web/Data: HTML, CSV, JSON, XML
  • Media: Images (EXIF + OCR), Audio (EXIF + transcription)
  • Other: ZIP (iterates contents), YouTube URLs, EPub

Options

-o OUTPUT      # Output file
-x EXTENSION   # Hint file extension (for stdin)
-m MIME_TYPE   # Hint MIME type
-c CHARSET     # Hint charset (e.g., UTF-8)
-d             # Use Azure Document Intelligence
-e ENDPOINT    # Document Intelligence endpoint
--use-plugins  # Enable 3rd-party plugins
--list-plugins # Show installed plugins

Examples

# Convert Word document
uvx markitdown report.docx -o report.md

# Convert Excel spreadsheet
uvx markitdown data.xlsx > data.md

# Convert PowerPoint presentation
uvx markitdown slides.pptx -o slides.md

# Convert with file type hint (for stdin)
cat document | uvx markitdown -x .pdf > output.md

# Use Azure Document Intelligence for better PDF extraction
uvx markitdown scan.pdf -d -e "https://your-resource.cognitiveservices.azure.com/"

Notes

  • Output preserves document structure: headings, tables, lists, links
  • First run caches dependencies; subsequent runs are faster
  • For complex PDFs with poor extraction, use -d with Azure Document Intelligence

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
