⚠ This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 20, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.
Tested the core render step live against bm.md with the bundled custom.css: it returned WeChat-ready HTML with 39 inline style= attributes, no <style> block, Chinese characters preserved, and the green accent inlined - which beats a class-based markdown baseline that WeChat would strip to plain black text. Two real frictions keep this at setup: the publish half (image upload plus draft/add) needs a WeChat Official Account AppID/Secret that I could not supply, so it is unmeasured; and the documented render curl (Content-Type only) returns 403 - it only worked after adding Origin and User-Agent headers the skill never mentions. Everything measurable held up, but the actual publishing deliverable sits behind a credential wall.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 7/10
- Docs & honesty 4/5
What WeChat Article Formatter does
Formats a markdown article with bundled green-accent CSS through the bm.md render service, uploads images to the WeChat CDN, and publishes to an Official Account draft via the official draft/add API. Triggers when you ask to format or publish an article to WeChat. Uses inline styles specifically so WeChat's sanitizer does not strip the formatting to plain text.
How to install WeChat Article Formatter
Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.
