What This Skill Does
Renders markdown tables and content into styled PNG images using a Node.js script. Accepts input as a command-line argument or via pipe. Supports optional title, viewport width, and dark theme.
Platforms like Slack, email, and many chat tools don't render markdown tables, so an image ensures the recipient sees formatted output regardless of their client.
When to use it
- Sending a comparison table in a chat message
- Sharing data summaries that look broken as raw markdown
- Posting formatted tables to platforms that don't render markdown
- Archiving tabular data as a visual snapshot
- Attaching structured output to a report or ticket
