md2pdf

Convert a Markdown file to PDF using npx md-to-pdf with the config bundled in this skill directory.

Instructions

The user invoked this with: $ARGUMENTS

1. Resolve the input file path from $ARGUMENTS. If a relative path is given, resolve it relative to the current working directory.
2. Ensure Chrome is available for Puppeteer:

zsh -i -c "npx puppeteer browsers install chrome"

3. Determine the absolute path to this skill's directory (where this SKILL.md lives) — it contains md-to-pdf.config.js.
4. Run the conversion:

zsh -i -c "npx md-to-pdf --config-file '<skill-dir>/md-to-pdf.config.js' <input-file>"

5. Report the path of the generated PDF (same directory as the input file, with a .pdf extension).

Notes

• The config adds a footer with a left-aligned Generated: <timestamp>, a centre-aligned filename, and a right-aligned Page X of Y.
• Bottom margin is increased to prevent the footer overlapping content.
• On Mac Silicon with an x64 Node install, a "Degraded performance warning" about Rosetta may appear — this is harmless.
• The zsh -i -c "..." wrapper ensures the correct Node version from .nvmrc is active.
