What is github2md and how does it work?

Swap github.com to github2md.com in any issue URL. Get instant Markdown via GitHub API—no noise, 95% token savings.

Does github2md work with private repos?

No, public only. Uses public API; auth needed for privates.

Free to use. Repo at ptu14/github2md—fork away.

Soon. But for now, this bridges the gap perfectly.
