Instructions

1. Verify API key is set:

   test -n "$FIREFLIES_API_KEY" && echo "Ready" || echo "ERROR: Set FIREFLIES_API_KEY"
   

2. Ask user for preferred format if not specified.

3. For file output, confirm the destination path with the user.

4. Markdown format is human-readable; JSON is for programmatic use.

Usage Tips

Format Selection:

• Use Markdown (.md) for human-readable documentation (default)
• Use JSON only when user needs structured data for processing
• When exporting to stdout, Markdown is easier to read in the terminal
