Core Principles
- Standard Markdown First: Write standard GitHub-Flavored Markdown (GFM) without vendor lock-in. Your files remain clean, portable, and readable in any Git repository.
- Deterministic Metadata: Control distribution, canonical authority, and SEO tags explicitly through YAML frontmatter or CLI flags.
- Automated Asset Hosting: Never worry about broken images when cross-posting. Relative image paths are automatically rewritten against your
--base-urlor frontmatterbase_url.
