channel-formatting

Markdown formatting for WhatsApp, Telegram, and Slack requires converting standard syntax like bold, italic, headings, and links into each platform's native text styles. This Skill transforms Claude's outbound Markdown responses into channel-native formats automatically.

Slack and Discord formatting do not share the same markdown syntax. This Skill applies channel-aware transformations to outbound text, converting headings, bold, italic, and links to the specific native syntax required by each messaging platform.

Code blocks are preserved during markdown conversion for messaging apps by implementing safe content handling. Fenced content and code blocks within the outbound pipeline are explicitly protected and not transformed into platform-native syntax.

Outbound links and text styles break across multiple channels because platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal use different native markdown syntax. Channel-aware rendering converts standard markdown into each platform's specific format to ensure correct display.

The best way to adapt a single response for WhatsApp, Discord, and Signal is channel-aware markdown rendering. It eliminates manual edits by automatically applying each platform's native formatting to bold, italic, headings, and links in the outbound pipeline.
