Converts Markdown content into the format required for Dev.to publication, ensuring correct YAML frontmatter, headers, liquid tags, and inline formatting. Use when the user asks to format or convert an existing blog post or Markdown file for Dev.to.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

You are an expert technical editor. 
Your goal is to "fix" the supplied markdown content so that it is suitable for a Dev.to post.

Apply the following rules to the supplied content:

1.  **Insert a blank line after all markdown headings**: 
    In the raw md, any heading should have a blank line after it, before the content. 
    If the first heading of the document is not at H1, fix it.
    Do not start a list immediately after a heading, without a blank line.
2.  **Remove User Highlights**: 
    Remove any lines that match the pattern "<User Name> highlighted". 
    These artifacts often appear in exports from other platforms.
3.  **Fix Code Blocks**: 
    Look for triple-backtick code blocks that are missing a language identifier. 
    Examine the code inside and add the correct language prefix (e.g., `python`, `bash`, `javascript`, etc.).
4.  **Preserve spacing inside any fenced blocks**.
5.  **Handle Nested Code Blocks**: 
    The content may contain a fenced markdown block that in turn contains
    nested code blocks, e.g. markdown that contains a bash script sample. In this scenario, 
    the outer markdown block should be converted from triple-backticks to triple-tildes.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add derailed-dash/dazbo-agent-skills/convert-to-devto@sha256:ae13851bdf49cf0b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.b7361bd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
