 "title": "Have a coding agent turn existing notes into a map",
 "page_title": "How to have a coding agent turn existing notes into a map with Md2 HD",
 "summary": "Load the bundled skill so an agent writes markdown that compiles to the map you meant.",
 "who": "A knowledge worker with a pile of existing notes who wants an agent to restructure them into an Md2 HD map without learning the syntax first.",
 "problem": "Writing node frontmatter and rel: edges by hand is tedious, and a map can parse cleanly yet draw the wrong graph.",
 "outcome": "Markdown files that open as the map you asked for, plus a diagnosis of any missing nodes, reversed arrows, or placeholder nodes.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `npx skills add evan-steinhilb/md2hd` to load the writing-md2hd-maps skill into your agent.",
  "In Claude Code, you can instead run `/plugin marketplace add evan-steinhilb/md2hd` and then `/plugin install md2hd@md2hd`.",
  "Ask the agent to convert your notes folder into an Md2 HD map, naming the folder.",
  "Run `npx md2hd notes/` on the output and check the Overview for missing nodes or reversed arrows."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the md2hd repo at evan-steinhilb/md2hd and its writing-md2hd-maps skill, convert the notes in <placeholder> into md2hd markdown with a type: map block. Expected output: the edited markdown files. Verify by running `npx md2hd <placeholder>` and confirming every intended node appears on the canvas.",
 "agents": [
  "claude-code"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The skill helps an agent write the syntax, but you still need to check the rendered map because the README notes that a clean parse can still draw the wrong thing.",

 "tags": [

 "lang": "javascript",
 "requirements": [
  "Node.js and npm installed, so that npx works",
  "A markdown file or a folder of markdown notes",
  "A modern web browser"
