A document-conversion service that turns Markdown, a plain-text writing format, into themed PDFs, slide decks, styled web pages, and shareable links.

Use it to create reports, pitches, academic papers, résumés, presentations, printable documents, or themed HTML pages from Markdown.

It removes the need to format the same Markdown content separately for reports, presentations, printable documents, or sharing.

Per session 56 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00056	$0.02419
Opus 5.5	$0.00022	$0.00968
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00011	$0.00484
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00242

Security

Grade A, and why

markpdf scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/open-url.sh, scripts/render.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

MarkPDF Skill

MarkPDF turns Markdown into production-grade PDFs, decks, and HTML through a hosted MCP server. This skill teaches Claude:

The default opinionated workflow (what to do when the user just says "make a PDF")
The decision tree for variations (custom theme, sharing, password, email gate, etc.)
The OS-aware delivery step (auto-open the result when possible)

Read references/workflows.md for the full playbook with copy-paste recipes. This file is the index + golden rules.

When to use this skill

Trigger on requests like:

"Make this a PDF / printable / executive report / brochure"
"Turn this into slides / a pitch deck / a PowerPoint / a Marp deck"
"Style this as a Notion-like doc / academic paper / corporate report"
"Share this document with a link" / "Send to alice@…"
"Apply theme X to this Markdown"

Do not use this skill for:

Plain in-chat Markdown rendering (no export needed)
PDFs of arbitrary HTML/CSS unrelated to Markdown
Editing existing PDFs (MarkPDF only generates)

The 7 MCP tools

Tool	Use it when	Quota
`whoami`	Always call first if unsure of tier/quota	Free
`list_themes`	User asks "what themes are available?" or you need to verify a slug	Free
`redeem_license`	User has a Pro license key and wants to upgrade in-place	Free
`convert_markdown_to_html`	Iterating on styling, embedding, previewing	Free
`convert_markdown_to_pdf`	Final document export	Yes
`convert_markdown_to_slides`	Slide deck (PDF or PPTX) — Marp-compatible	Yes
`create_share_link`	Default delivery channel — clean URL, optional gating	Free

🎯 The default workflow (do this unless told otherwise)

When a user gives you Markdown content and asks for any kind of styled output:

┌─ 1. Detect intent (PDF | slides | HTML)  ──────────────────┐
│                                                              │
│  2. Pick a theme (intent → theme map, see below)             │
│                                                              │
│  3. whoami (skip if already done this session)               │
│                                                              │
│  4. If user has a Pro license key in context AND they're     │
│     on free tier → propose redeem_license (don't force)      │
│                                                              │
│  5. Generate the artifact:                                   │
│     - PDF      → convert_markdown_to_pdf                     │
│     - Slides   → convert_markdown_to_slides                  │
│     - HTML     → convert_markdown_to_html                    │
│                                                              │
│  6. Create a share link (always, in parallel)                │
│     → create_share_link returns markpdf.app/d/<id>           │
│                                                              │
│  7. Deliver to the user:                                     │
│     a) Show the SHARE link prominently (markpdf.app/d/…)     │
│     b) Show the download link as a secondary option          │
│     c) Auto-open the share link in the browser if possible   │
│        (see "OS-aware open" below)                           │
│                                                              │
│  8. Report quota status if free tier (X/2 today, 00:00 UTC)  │
└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

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.
