Markdown Copy

Extract the final answer from this session, convert it to proper markdown format, and copy to clipboard.

Formatting Rules

1. **No heading elements** (`#`, `##`, etc.) — use **bold** for section titles instead 2. Convert any ASCII tables to proper markdown tables 3. Use *italic* for emphasis and minor notes 4. Preserve code blocks with proper language tags 5. Keep bullet lists and numbered lists 6. Remove any leading spaces or bullet headers (bullet-style) 7. Give the content a nice descriptive title (as bold text, not heading)

Workflow

1. Identify the final answer/response in this session 2. Format it according to the rules above 3. Write formatted text to a timestamped temp file:

tmpfile="/tmp/claude-md-copy-$(date +%s).txt"
cat > "$tmpfile" << 'EOF'
<formatted content>
EOF

4. Copy to clipboard and remove temp file:

if [[ "$OSTYPE" == "darwin"* ]]; then
    pbcopy < "$tmpfile"
elif command -v xclip &> /dev/null; then
    xclip -selection clipboard < "$tmpfile"
elif command -v xsel &> /dev/null; then
    xsel --clipboard --input < "$tmpfile"
else
    echo "No clipboard tool found" >&2
fi
rm -f "$tmpfile"

5. Report success with character count
