User Input Tools
When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):
- Prefer built-in user-input tools exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g.,
AskUserQuestion,request_user_input,clarify,ask_user, or any equivalent. - Fallback: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
- Batching: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.
Concrete AskUserQuestion references below are examples — substitute the local equivalent in other runtimes.
Script Directory
{baseDir} = this SKILL.md's directory. Resolve ${BUN_X}: bun if installed → else npx -y bun → else suggest installing bun.

Preferences (EXTEND.md)
First found wins:

None found → use defaults.
Supported: default theme, custom CSS variables, code block style, mermaid defaults (mermaid_theme, mermaid_scale, mermaid_background).
Workflow
Step 0: Pre-check (CJK Content)
Only if the input contains CJK characters AND the baoyu-format-markdown skill is available: ask (AskUserQuestion) whether to format first — it fixes ** bold markers broken by inner punctuation and CJK/English spacing. Agree → run baoyu-format-markdown, use the formatted file. Decline → use the original. No CJK → skip to Step 1.
Step 1: Determine Theme
First match wins:
- User-specified (CLI
--themeor conversation) - This skill's EXTEND.md
default_theme - Cross-skill fallback (only if step 2 has none):
default_theme:line in$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md, if it exists - None → ask (
AskUserQuestion) with the Themes table
Theme from EXTEND.md → use it directly, do NOT ask.
Step 1.5: Determine Citation Mode
Default off; don't ask. Enable (--cite) only if the user explicitly asks for "微信外链转底部引用", "底部引用", "文末引用", or passes --cite. When enabled:
- Ordinary external links are rendered with numbered superscripts and collected under a final
引用链接section. https://mp.weixin.qq.com/...links stay as direct links and are not moved to the bottom.- Bare links where link text equals URL stay inline.
Step 2: Convert
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts <markdown_file> --theme <theme> [--cite]
Step 3: Report Result
Show htmlPath from the JSON result; mention backupPath if a backup was created.

JSON to stdout:
{
"title": "Article Title",
"author": "Author Name",
"summary": "Article summary...",
"htmlPath": "/path/to/article.html",
"backupPath": "/path/to/article.html.bak-20260128180000",
"contentImages": [

"placeholder": "MDTOHTMLIMGPH_1",
"localPath": "/path/to/img.png",

"localPath": "/path/to/imgs/.mermaid-cache/mermaid-a1b2c3d4e5f6.png",
"cached": false
}
]
}
Mermaid: ```mermaid blocks are rendered to PNG via headless Chrome (CDP), cached at imgs/.mermaid-cache/mermaid-<hash>.png (key: code, theme, scale, target width, background, mermaid version; suggest adding the dir to .gitignore). Needs Chrome/Chromium/Edge; if unavailable or rendering fails, falls back to <pre class="mermaid">…</pre> and conversion still succeeds.
