CLI

Create a starter

npm create website-md@latest my-site

Requires create-website-md on npm. The generated project includes WEBSITE.md and optional companion files.

Check any repo

npx website-md check
npx website-md check ./my-site
npx website-md check --json

The portable checker validates WEBSITE.md, required sections, referenced files, scripts, and reports a conformance level. Exit code 0 on pass, 1 on fail.

Project scripts

npm run dev
npm run build
npm run check

Starter projects and websitemd.org include local check scripts with site-specific HTML checks on top of the portable rules.

Publish packages (maintainers)

npm login
npm run publish:packages

From the websitemd.org repo root. Publishes create-website-md and website-md, then runs smoke tests.

Later

website-md init
website-md export-llms
website-md extract <url>
