What it does
Markedit Tools is an agent skill from sammcj/agentic-coding. Provides tools for managing MarkEdit, a macOS markdown editor
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It works with macOS and GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Agentic Coding Rules, Templates etc... The licence is Apache-2.0.
Example prompts
- “Use the markedit-tools skill to provide tools for managing MarkEdit, a macOS markdown editor”
- “/markedit-tools”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Fetch the latest release tag from the GitHub API
- Read the tag_name field from the response.
- Download the asset using
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 62ba5a2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
osascript
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
github.comapi.github.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Markedit Tools loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 19 tokens; SKILL.md has 548 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

File Locations
| Path | Description |
|---|---|
~/Library/Containers/app.cyan.markedit/Data/Documents/scripts/ | Extensions directory |
~/Library/Containers/app.cyan.markedit/Data/Documents/settings.json | Advanced settings |
~/Library/Containers/app.cyan.markedit/Data/Documents/editor.css | Custom stylesheets |
~/Library/Containers/app.cyan.markedit/Data/Documents/editor.js | Custom JavaScript |
Extension URLs
When a user provides an extension name, download from this URL pattern:
https://github.com/MarkEdit-app/extension-name/blob/main/dist/extension-name-kebab-cased.js?raw=trueAlways normalise the extension name to kebab-case.
For example, MarkEdit Preview is available at:
https://github.com/MarkEdit-app/MarkEdit-preview/blob/main/dist/markedit-preview.js?raw=true
When a user requests a "lite" build, it is located in the lite subfolder under dist:
https://github.com/MarkEdit-app/MarkEdit-preview/blob/main/dist/lite/markedit-preview.js?raw=true
The filename is identical to the standard build; do not add a -lite suffix.
If the dist file is not found (non-200 response), fall back to the GitHub latest release asset:
- Fetch the latest release tag from the GitHub API:
https://api.github.com/repos/MarkEdit-app/extension-name/releases/latest - Read the
tag_namefield from the response. - Download the asset using:
https://github.com/MarkEdit-app/extension-name/releases/download/{tag_name}/extension-name-kebab-cased.jsFor example, if dist/markedit-preview.js is not available in the repository and the latest release tag is v1.0.0:
https://github.com/MarkEdit-app/MarkEdit-preview/releases/download/v1.0.0/markedit-preview.js
If the user provides a URL ending with .js, use that URL directly.

Answering Questions
When users ask questions:
- If it's a task (install, configure, upgrade) → perform the action
- If it's a customisation question → explain editor.css, editor.js, or settings.json
- If it's a feature question → fetch from wiki and issues
- If unknown → suggest the wiki or GitHub issues
Examples
- "Upgrade MarkEdit"
- "Install MarkEdit Preview extension"
- "Install the lite version of MarkEdit Preview"
- "Upgrade MarkEdit Preview"
- "List installed extensions"
- "Remove MarkEdit Preview"
- "Enable autoSaveWhenIdle in MarkEdit"
- "How to customise the editor appearance?"
Error Handling
- If extension download fails from both the dist URL and the latest release, suggest checking the extension name or URL
- If
settings.jsonis malformed, suggest validating JSON syntax - If MarkEdit is not installed, suggest installation methods
Documentation
When answering questions, refer to the MarkEdit Wiki:
Search also https://github.com/MarkEdit-app/MarkEdit/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aclosed for answered questions or discussed topics.
When answering questions related to development, refer to the MarkEdit API repository too.
