# Markdown Linter
Check and improve Markdown file quality.
## Capabilities
- **Style Checks**: Heading levels, list consistency, line length
- **Link Validation**: Check for broken internal/external links
- **Structure Analysis**: TOC generation, heading hierarchy
- **Auto-Fix**: Suggest or apply formatting corrections
## Usage
Ask the agent to:
- "Lint README.md for issues"
- "Check all markdown files in this directory"
- "Fix formatting issues in docs/"
- "Generate a table of contents for this document"
## How It Works
Analyzes Markdown files for common issues:
- Inconsistent heading levels (skipping levels)
- Trailing whitespace, missing blank lines
- Broken relative links
- Inconsistent list markers
- Long lines
Can use `markdownlint-cli` if available, or perform analysis with built-in text processing.
## Requirements
- Optional: `markdownlint-cli` (`npm install -g markdownlint-cli`)
- Works without external tools using text analysis
- No API keys needed
