What it does
Converts a file path or URL to Markdown by building the URI and calling the markitdown MCP server's convert_to_markdown tool.
Files
Convert $ARGUMENTS to Markdown using the markitdown MCP server.
Follow these rules to build the URI:
- If the argument starts with
http://orhttps://ordata:, use it as-is. - If the argument is a local file path (absolute or relative), convert it to a
file://URI. - Resolve relative paths to absolute using the current working directory.
- Example:
/Users/me/docs/report.pdf→file:///Users/me/docs/report.pdf
Then call the convert_to_markdown(uri) tool from the markitdown MCP server with the constructed URI.
Output the resulting Markdown content directly.
If the convert_to_markdown tool is not available, print: "⚠️ markitdown MCP server is not connected. Please run /markitdown-setup first, then restart Claude Code."
