Markdown was never meant to be previewed plain text

Are you tired of seeing your important SKILL.md files rendered as plain text within macOS Preview? showmd offers a superior solution as a free, native macOS Quick Look extension that delivers beautiful and accurate Markdown rendering directly in your preview pane. It uniquely parses YAML frontmatter into a sophisticated, collapsible metadata table, which is collapsed by default for a clean view and expands with a single click. Furthermore, it intelligently renders Agentic AI XML tags, along with 17 other specialized tags, as clearly labeled, bordered blocks rather than raw angle brackets, providing unparalleled readability and context for complex documentation. This level of detail and functionality is unmatched by any other viewer.
