# Markdown Skill

Reads a Markdown or plain text file and returns its content verbatim.

## Setup

No external dependencies — uses only the Python standard library.

## Standalone usage

```python
import asyncio
from synthadoc.skills.markdown.scripts.main import MarkdownSkill

skill = MarkdownSkill()

async def main():
    result = await skill.extract("/path/to/notes.md")
    print(result.text)      # file contents verbatim

asyncio.run(main())
```

## When this skill is used

- Source path ends with `.md` or `.txt`
- User intent contains: `markdown`, `text file`, `notes`
