name: logseq-convert-md-to-lfm description: >- Convert standard Markdown (especially pasted from ChatGPT or similar) into Logseq-Flavored Markdown: nest code blocks inside bullets, fix heading-to-indent levels, drop horizontal rules, convert wide tables to label-value bullets, fix footnotes to URL-only, and replace generic link text. Use when the user pastes non-LFM markdown to import, asks to "convert to LFM", or to clean up an AI-generated dump. For table column alignment use logseq-table-formatter; for baseline LFM rules see logseq-core / logseq-lfm. targets: ["*"] codexcli: short-description: Convert standard Markdown into Logseq-Flavored Markdown

Convert Markdown → LFM

Apply the conversion checklist when importing standard markdown into the garden. Baseline LFM rules live in logseq-core; this skill covers the exceptional fixes that pasted/AI markdown typically needs.

Checklist (work top to bottom)

1. Links — replace generic text like [github.com](url) with the destination's real title.
2. Code blocks — nest fenced blocks inside a bullet, not as sibling bullets; use ~~~ inside outer ``` blocks.
3. Horizontal rules — delete --- separators; use heading hierarchy/indentation instead.
4. Tables — convert >2-column tables to label-value bullets; a 2-column table may stay if wrapped in a - bullet. (For aligning a table you keep, use the logseq-table-formatter skill.)
5. Heading levels — # at root, ## at one TAB, ### at two TABs.
6. Footnotes — Footnotes section (not "References"); [^1]: url (URL-only, no link text); separate adjacent refs with spaces ([^4] [^5]).
