Summary: 1 broken links out of 13 total links.

Reference Link Conversion

In Markdown, reference-style links let you write cleaner text by keeping URLs in a reference section - think footnotes for the web.

To convert inline links to reference-style links:

markitect \
    --reflinks.input tests/data/pydantic.md \
    --reflinks.output with_refs.md

Static Site Configuration Generation

Generate a MkDocs configuration (mkdocs.yml) from a given Markdown file.

1. Split the Markdown file into sections:

   markitect \
       --split.i tests/data/readme-ai.md \
       --split.o examples/split-sections-h2
   

2. Generate the MkDocs configuration:

   markitect \
       --mkdocs.dir examples/split-sections-h2 \
       --mkdocs.site-name "MyDocsSite"
   

See additional example and usage details in the here.
