Description
Convert a Markdown file into a nicely formatted Google Doc and open it in the browser. Use when the user wants to create a Google Doc from a .md file, share markdown content as a Google Doc, or invoke /md2docs. Handles headings, bold, italic, inline code, fenced code blocks, tables, lists, links, horizontal rules, and mermaid diagrams.

md2docs

Convert a Markdown file to a formatted Google Doc with one command.

Usage

/md2docs <path-to-file.md>

Optional arguments after the file path:

  • --title "Custom Title" to override the doc title (default: filename as title case)
  • --no-open to skip opening the browser

Workflow

  1. Read the markdown file specified by the user
  2. Run the conversion script:
python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/md2docs.py <file_path> [--title "Title"] [--no-open]

Replace SKILL_DIR with the absolute path to this skill's directory (the directory containing this SKILL.md file).

  1. Report the Google Doc URL back to the user

First-Time Setup

If the script reports "No client_secret.json found", guide the user through setup:

  1. Go to Google Cloud Console
  2. Create a project (or use existing)
  3. Enable the Google Drive API
  4. Go to APIs & Services > Credentials
  5. Create an OAuth 2.0 Client ID (application type: Desktop app)
  6. Download the JSON file
  7. Save it to ~/.md2docs/client_secret.json

The first run opens a browser for OAuth consent. After that, the token is cached at ~/.md2docs/token.json and no browser auth is needed until the token expires.

Each developer authenticates with their own Google account. Docs are created in their personal Google Drive.

What Gets Formatted

  • H1-H6 headings with native Google Docs heading styles
  • Bold, italic, bold+italic
  • inline code with Courier New font and gray background
  • Fenced code blocks with Courier New font, gray background, and border
  • Tables with bordered cells and header row styling
  • Unordered and ordered lists with proper nesting
  • Links as clickable hyperlinks
  • Horizontal rules
  • Mermaid diagrams rendered as embedded images (requires mmdc or npx)

Environment Variables

  • MD2DOCS_CLIENT_SECRET - override path to client_secret.json (default: ~/.md2docs/client_secret.json)

Dependencies

The script auto-installs these pip packages on first run if missing:

  • markdown
  • google-auth
  • google-auth-oauthlib
  • google-api-python-client

Optional for mermaid diagram rendering:

  • mmdc (mermaid CLI) or npx (will use @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli)
