  are not directly readable as plain text.

# File to Markdown

Use the installed shared core:

```bash
__FILE_TO_MARKDOWN_BIN__ "<file-path>"
```

Write to a file first for large documents:

```bash
__FILE_TO_MARKDOWN_BIN__ "<file-path>" -o /tmp/converted.md
```

Then read the generated Markdown and continue with the user's request.

## Notes

- Install root: `__INSTALL_ROOT__`
- Shared executable: `__FILE_TO_MARKDOWN_BIN__`
- This wrapper does not auto-edit Claude Code config; wire it in manually.
