Convert Markdown files to PDF, PNG, or JPEG using headless Chrome (Puppeteer), following the same methodology as VS Code's Markdown Preview Enhanced extension.

  • Works in 3 steps: Environment Check & Setup → Convert Markdown to HTML → Launch Headless Chrome & Export
  • The user asks to: export/convert/render markdown to PDF
  • SKILL.md covers Architecture Overview, Step 0: Environment Check &…, Step 1: Convert Markdown to HTML and Step 2: Launch Headless Chrome…, plus 5 more sections
  • Runs JavaScript and Shell scripts from its folder; calls node, bash and apt-get; reaches raw.githubusercontent.com

What it does

Md2pdf Export is an agent skill from wentorai/Research-Claw. Convert Markdown files to PDF, PNG, or JPEG using headless Chrome (Puppeteer), following the same methodology as VS Code's Markdown Preview Enhanced extension. Use this skill whenever the user asks to: export/convert/render markdown to PDF or image, generate a printable document from .md files, create publication-ready PDFs from markdown, set up a markdown-to-PDF pipeline, or install/configure the Node.js + Puppeteer + Chrome environment needed for headless rendering. Also trigger when the user mentions "md2pdf"…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/puppeteer-config.md`, `references/themes.md` and `scripts/md2pdf.js`).

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Markdown and PDF. It works with Puppeteer, Node.js and Visual Studio Code. The repository describes itself as: In the AI era, why can't everyone be a Principal Investigator?

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to: export/convert/render markdown to PDF
  • Generate a printable document from .md files
  • Create publication-ready PDFs from markdown
  • Set up a markdown-to-PDF pipeline

Example prompts

  • “md2pdf”
  • “markdown export”
  • “puppeteer PDF”
  • “/md2pdf-export”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A Bash shell
  • Docker

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Environment Check & Setup
  2. Convert Markdown to HTML
  3. Launch Headless Chrome & Export

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5015be7. 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

    Ships 4 files in scripts/ (JavaScript and Shell), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node
    • bash
    • apt-get
    • curl
    • nvm
    • npm
    • npx

    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:

    • raw.githubusercontent.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

Md2pdf Export loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 188 tokens; SKILL.md has 568 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~188
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.9k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePipes a well-known installer script into a shellSKILL.md:62
    curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.1/install.sh | bash
  • NoteRuns commands with sudoSKILL.md:71
    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y \

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 568 words (~2,137 tokens).
