## User Input Tools
When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):
1. **Prefer built-in user-input tools** exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g., `AskUserQuestion`, `request_user_input`, `clarify`, `ask_user`, or any equivalent.
2. **Fallback**: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
3. **Batching**: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.
Concrete `AskUserQuestion` references below are examples — substitute the local equivalent in other runtimes.
## Script Directory
**Agent Execution**: Determine this SKILL.md directory as `{baseDir}`. Resolve `${BUN_X}` runtime: if `bun` installed → `bun`; if `npx` available → `npx -y bun`; else suggest installing bun. Replace `{baseDir}` and `${BUN_X}` with actual values.
| Script | Purpose |
|--------|---------|
| `scripts/main.ts` | Main entry point |
## Preferences (EXTEND.md)
Check EXTEND.md in priority order — the first one found wins:
**Cross-skill EXTEND.md check** (only if this skill's EXTEND.md has no `default_theme`):
Read `$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md` if it exists and look for a `default_theme:` line. Use the value if present; otherwise fall through.
**If theme is resolved from EXTEND.md**: Use it directly, do NOT ask the user.
**If no default found**: use `AskUserQuestion` to confirm a theme from the [Themes](#themes) table below.
### Step 1.5: Determine Citation Mode
**Default**: Off. Do not ask by default.
**Enable only if the user explicitly asks** for "微信外链转底部引用", "底部引用", "文末引用", or passes `--cite`.
**Behavior when enabled**:
- Ordinary external links are rendered with numbered superscripts and collected under a final `引用链接` section.
- `https://mp.weixin.qq.com/...` links stay as direct links and are not moved to the bottom.
- Bare links where link text equals URL stay inline.
| `--mermaid-width <N>` | Mermaid target display width in CSS px; PNG is rendered at `width × scale` pixels when the diagram is narrower than this | 860 |
| `--mermaid-bg <value>` | Mermaid background: `white`, `transparent`, or `#hex` | white |
**Mermaid rendering**: Code blocks fenced as ` ```mermaid ` are rendered to PNGs via headless Chrome (CDP) and cached at `imgs/.mermaid-cache/mermaid-<hash>.png`. The cache key includes the code, theme, scale, target width, background, and mermaid version. Add `imgs/.mermaid-cache/` to `.gitignore` if you do not want generated diagrams checked in. Requires Chrome/Chromium/Edge on the system; otherwise the block falls back to `<pre class="mermaid">…</pre>` and conversion still succeeds.
## Themes
| Theme | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `default` | Classic - traditional layout, centered title with bottom border, H2 with white text on colored background |
| Links | `[text](url)`; add `--cite` to move ordinary external links into bottom references |
| Blockquotes | `> quote` |
| Lists | `-` unordered, `1.` ordered |
| Alerts | `> [!NOTE]`, `> [!WARNING]`, etc. |
| Footnotes | `[^1]` references |
| Ruby text | `{base|annotation}` |
| Mermaid | ` ```mermaid ` blocks rendered to local PNG via headless Chrome (cached under `imgs/.mermaid-cache/`); falls back to `<pre class="mermaid">` if Chrome is unavailable or rendering fails |
| PlantUML | ` ```plantuml ` diagrams |
## Frontmatter
Supports YAML frontmatter for metadata:
```yaml
---
title: Article Title
author: Author Name
description: Article summary

```
If no title is found, extracts from first H1/H2 heading or uses filename.
