Raw front matter

ReadyThis inspector recognizes a top-of-file --- block and simple key: value lines. It does not claim to parse the full YAML specification, nested objects, anchors, or custom tags.

Connected Markdown workflow

v10.75 keeps historical Markdown generators, converters, extractors, editor, formatter, linter, and diff contracts while adding a consistent local document inspector for words, headings, links, tasks, outline, viewing, table cleanup, and link auditing.

Renderer and validation boundaries

The browser-local preview intentionally escapes raw HTML and supports a practical Markdown/GFM-style subset rather than claiming perfect CommonMark/GFM conformance. Link auditing inspects source syntax without fetching destinations, and table formatting targets ordinary pipe tables rather than every renderer extension.

How to use this Markdown Front Matter Inspector

Paste a Markdown document whose first line is ---. The tool separates the top front-matter block, lists simple key/value lines, and shows the remaining body.

What the result means

Paste a Markdown document beginning with --- to list simple key/value metadata, raw front matter, and body text without uploading it.

Practical tips and limits

The parser is deliberately limited to simple YAML-style key: value inspection. It does not fully parse nested YAML, arrays, block scalars, anchors, tags, or schema types.
