A description with Markdown and no HTML tag is rendered to HTML with pulldown-cmark, and an item with no text but RSS's <source:markdown> (https://source.scripting.com/, as Scripting News sends beside its HTML) uses that. HTML is left alone, and plain text without Markdown in it stays as it was, so a line like "1984. ..." is not made a list. ammonia cleans the result as any feed's HTML. Stored items keep what they have: the scanner does not rewrite an item it has. Reference: http://scripting.com/2026/10/06/005559.html Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
