How It Works

flowchart LR
    A["Markdown"] --> B["Parse"]
    B --> C["Mermaid → kroki.io → PNG"]
    C --> D["Convert to Confluence HTML"]
    D --> E["Upload via REST API"]
    E --> F["Attach images"]

1. Parse - Extract content, remove front matter
2. Render - Convert Mermaid diagrams to PNG via kroki.io
3. Convert - Transform Markdown to Confluence storage format
4. Upload - Create/update page via Confluence REST API
5. Attach - Upload images as page attachments
