Berq Markdown makes your WordPress content instantly consumable by AI assistants, LLM crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Googlebot-AI), and Markdown-aware tools — without duplicating your content or creating separate pages.
Appending <code>.md</code> to any public page or post URL (e.g. <code>https://example.com/about.md</code>) returns a clean, structured Markdown file with YAML frontmatter. The plugin handles content from all common sources: Gutenberg blocks, classic editor, shortcodes, and custom PHP templates.
How it works
When a visitor or crawler requests <code>/about.md</code>, the plugin intercepts the request, finds the matching WordPress post, converts the HTML content to Markdown, and serves it with the correct <code>Content-Type: text/markdown</code> header — all without creating any new database entries or files.
Key Features
<ul>
<li>Automatic .md URLs — any public post or page URL + <code>.md</code> returns clean Markdown</li>
<li>YAML frontmatter — every .md file includes <code>title</code>, <code>description</code>, <code>url</code>, <code>date_modified</code>, <code>author</code>, and <code>language</code></li>
<li>Full content compatibility — works with Gutenberg blocks, classic editor, shortcodes, and custom PHP page templates</li>
<li>HTML to Markdown conversion — pure PHP, no external dependencies; handles headings, paragraphs, lists, links, images, tables, code blocks, and more</li>
<li>Internal link rewriting — links to internal pages are rewritten to their <code>.md</code> equivalent automatically</li>
<li>URL exclusions with wildcards — exclude specific URL patterns using <code>*</code> as a wildcard (e.g. <code>/cart/*</code>, <code>*/checkout*</code>)</li>
<li>Post type selection — choose which post types (posts, pages, custom post types) are served as Markdown</li>
<li>Transient caching — optional cache with configurable TTL to reduce server load at scale</li>
<li><code><link></code> tag injection — injects a <code><link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown"></code> tag in every page’s <code><head></code> so crawlers can discover the .md version</li>
<li><code>[btrmd313_md_link]</code> shortcode — renders a link to the current page’s <code>.md</code> file, opens in a new tab</li>
<li>Multilingual support — detects language via Polylang or WPML, adds <code>language</code> and <code>alternates</code> to frontmatter and emits <code>hreflang</code> link tags</li>
<li>Public content rendering — always renders content as a non-logged-in visitor, so member-only sections are not exposed</li>
<li>Admin settings page — all options configurable under Settings > Berq Markdown, with a Settings link on the Plugins page</li>
</ul>

Kolibia Agent-Ready makes WordPress content available as Markdown so tools and agents do not have to scrape HTML. Behaviour follows common content negotiation patterns (similar in spirit to <a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/reference/markdown-for-agents/" rel="nofollow ugc">Markdown for Agents</a> on Cloudflare): clients that prefer Markdown can request it explicitly.
What is included today
<ul>
<li>Markdown responses for singular content — For each built-in public post type registered by WordPress core (<code>post</code>, <code>page</code>, <code>attachment</code> on a typical site), a single-item URL can return <code>Content-Type: text/markdown; charset=UTF-8</code> instead of the themed HTML page.</li>
<li>Markdown for the posts index — When the site front page shows latest posts (WordPress “Your homepage displays: Your latest posts”), the homepage and other blog-index URLs return Markdown listing the same posts as the main loop.</li>
<li>Static or WooCommerce shop front page — When a page is set as the front page (including a WooCommerce shop page where WordPress reports <code>is_singular</code> as false), that page’s content is still served as Markdown on <code>/</code> when clients negotiate <code>text/markdown</code>.</li>
<li>When Markdown is served
<ul>
<li>The request includes an <code>Accept</code> header that lists <code>text/markdown</code> (requests with <code>text/markdown;q=0</code> are ignored).</li>
<li>Or the URL includes the query argument <code>output_format=md</code> (handy for browsers and manual testing).</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>HTML to Markdown — Rendered post body is passed through WordPress’s <code>the_content</code> filters, then converted to Markdown using the <a href="https://github.com/thephpleague/html-to-markdown" rel="nofollow ugc">league/html-to-markdown</a> library. A short YAML front matter block includes <code>title</code> and <code>permalink</code>.</li>
<li>Password-protected content — If a password is required, the response is a small Markdown message instead of the full body.</li>
<li>Discovery in HTML — On the normal HTML view, the plugin prints <code><link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown" href="…?output_format=md" /></code> so clients can find the Markdown URL.</li>
<li>Admin shortcut — On the posts and pages list screens, a row action View as AI Agent opens the same Markdown URL (preview URLs are used for drafts where WordPress would show Preview).</li>
</ul>
Developer filters
<ul>
<li><code>kolibia_ar_markdown_post_types</code> — Defaults to all public, built-in post types from core; override to add custom post types or remove types (e.g. <code>attachment</code>).</li>
<li><code>kolibia_ar_post_markdown</code> — Filter the final Markdown string.</li>
<li><code>kolibia_ar_home_markdown</code> — Filter the Markdown for the posts index / homepage loop.</li>
<li><code>kolibia_ar_home_markdown_post_types</code> — Post types included in the homepage Markdown list (default: <code>post</code>).</li>
<li><code>kolibia_ar_markdown_password_required</code> — Filter the Markdown shown when a password is required.</li>
</ul>
Roadmap
Further “agent readiness” features (broader API discovery, additional formats) may be added in future releases.

Kolibia Agent-Ready adds API discovery and Markdown responses so AI agents can use your WordPress content and services.
