Markdown Lint

Markdown Lint adds writing diagnostics for markdown notes. It highlights common formatting issues directly in the editor and offers quick fixes where Lapis can make a safe change.

The goal is not to make every note look identical. The goal is to catch small formatting problems before they become distracting.

What It Checks

• Heading order and spacing.
• List indentation.
• Extra blank lines.
• Common table and code block formatting problems.
• Markdown patterns that can render inconsistently across tools.

Editor Behavior

• Diagnostics appear in the markdown editor while you write.
• Safe quick fixes are offered for supported issues.
• Rules can be disabled when they do not match your writing style.
• The plugin works with the Lapis language-service diagnostics surface.

Useful For

Control

Markdown Lint is optional. Keep it enabled when you want active guidance, or disable individual rules when you want a quieter editor.
