Input Schema
TableJSON Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| markdown | Yes | The raw Markdown source text to convert. Supports GitHub-Flavored Markdown (tables, task lists, strikethrough) and KaTeX math expressions. Pass the full document content as a string, not a file path. | |
| output_path | No | Optional. Absolute or relative file path (e.g. './output.txt') where the result will be saved. Parent directories are created automatically. If omitted, the converted text content is returned directly in the response as a string. If provided, the file is written to disk and a JSON summary with { success, file_path, file_size_bytes, format } is returned instead. |
