Convert files and office documents to Markdown

markitdown is an agent skill from the davila7 claude-code-templates collection, listed on skills.sh. It wraps MarkItDown, a Python tool developed by Microsoft that converts files and office documents into Markdown. It supports PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, HTML, CSV, JSON, XML and ZIP files, along with images, which can be read with OCR, and audio, which can be transcribed. The skill explains why Markdown suits language models: the format is token-efficient, and it keeps the structure of a document in clean text. The conversion can also add AI-generated descriptions for images when that option is turned on. The skill lists more than 15 supported formats and calls out OCR for scanned documents and speech transcription for audio. It is for anyone who wants to feed a document to an AI model, or to store it as searchable text, and who would rather not pass binary office files around. The skill also reminds the agent to consider scientific diagrams when it writes documents with it.
