podlite-markup skill — structured output for AI agents The podlite-markup skill is now on the skills.sh marketplace. One command installs Podlite support into Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Codex CLI, and 35+ other agents: npx skills add podlite/podlite-skills The problem it solves: AI agents write well, but their output doesn't hold structure between sessions. Markdown frontmatter is a convention — parsers may or may not read it, and agents that haven't been told what to look for usually don't. Podlite uses explicit typed blocks with named attributes. When an agent writes =begin pod :pubdate('2026-03-12') :type('page'), that metadata is a structured field, not prose — any tool can read it without guessing. I've been using this in my own workflow for specs, decision logs, and blog posts. What changed: a second agent can open a file written by a first agent and immediately understand what it is, what state it's in, and what to do next. No re-explaining context. The file carries the instructions. Podlite natively supports Markdown, so existing files don't need migration. Full write-up · Source
