wise-markitdown from e1024kb/wise-claude is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

File-to-markdown text extraction via Microsoft's `markitdown` CLI — the ONE tool to reach for whenever text/content must be extracted from a binary or structured file: PDF, Word (.docx), PowerPoint (.pptx), Excel (.xlsx/.xls), images (EXIF metadata), audio (metadata + transcription), HTML, CSV/JSON/XML, ZIP archives, EPUB e-books, Outlook .msg, or a YouTube URL. Consult this skill BEFORE writing a custom parser, importing PyPDF2/python-docx/openpyxl, or web-searching "how to read X in Python".…
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
# markitdown — extract text from (almost) any file Before executing, follow [model fallback](../../references/workflow-host-control.md#model-fallback) for unavailable models or delegation routes, including in autonomous procedures. At every skill start, identify your main/child role and the current client and GUI/TUI question tools, then read and follow the [question lifecycle](../../references/workflow-host-control.md#keep-asynchronous-questions-open). Keep asynchronous prompts open until answered; this rule does not authorize questions in autonomous or otherwise prompt-free procedures. Canonical routine for getting the textual content out of a file wise can't read natively. [`markitdown`](https://github.com/microsoft/markitdown) converts a long list of formats to markdown in one command — so structure (headings, tables, lists, links) survives the extraction and the result drops straight into an LLM context. This is a **reference doc**, not a slash command. When a task needs the content of a supported file, run markitdown — do not hand-roll a parser, install per-format Python libraries, or research extraction approaches. One tool, one invocation, markdown out. …

How to install
mdr add e1024kb/wise-claude/wise-markitdown@sha256:af476aef153be5b5The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.d768486, 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.
