Document Importer

Import external documents into editable markdown.

When To Use

User provides a DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, PDF, or HTML file to convert into project documentation
User wants to extract content from a document for rewriting or remediation
User has a slide deck or spreadsheet to turn into markdown documentation

When NOT To Use

Academic paper analysis: use tome:papers
Web article knowledge intake: use memory-palace:knowledge-intake
Content already in markdown: use scribe:doc-generator remediation mode directly

Import Workflow

Step 1: Identify Source

Determine the source document:

Local file path: verify it exists with Read tool
URL: verify accessibility
User description: confirm format and location

Step 2: Convert to Markdown

Apply the leyline:document-conversion protocol:

Construct URI from source (file path or URL)
Try the markitdown MCP tool for best quality
If unavailable, use native tool fallbacks
If format unsupported, inform user

Step 3: Structural Cleanup

After conversion, normalize the markdown:

Ensure ATX headings (# style, not setext underlines)
Wrap prose lines at 80 characters per leyline:markdown-formatting
Fix broken tables (align columns, add headers)
Remove conversion artifacts (page numbers, headers/footers, watermarks, repeated logos)
Preserve all substantive content

Step 4: Sanitize External Content

Apply the leyline:content-sanitization checklist:

Size check (truncate sections over 2000 words)
Strip system/instruction tags
Wrap in external content boundary markers

Step 5: Write Draft

Write the converted markdown to the target location. Default: same directory as source, with .md extension. Ask the user for target path if ambiguous.

Step 6: Hand Off to Doc-Generator (Optional)

If the user wants polishing or rewriting:

Invoke Skill(scribe:doc-generator) in Remediation mode on the imported file
The doc-generator handles slop detection, style application, and quality gates

Offer this step. Do not assume the user wants remediation.

Output Quality

The imported markdown should:

Have a top-level # Title from the document title
Preserve the original heading hierarchy
Convert tables to markdown tables
Convert images to ![alt](path) references (note: image files may need separate handling)
Convert lists faithfully
Mark unclear or garbled sections with

Exit Criteria

Source document identified and accessible
Conversion attempted via document-conversion protocol
Structural cleanup applied
Sanitization checklist passed
Draft written to target path
User informed of any conversion limitations
