Description

I am using latest spec-kit and cursor-agent.

The generated files have lots (100's in my case) of md linting errors which the agent takes time fixing.

Research direction
Look at the markdown templates in the spec kit repository, likely in a 'templates' directory. Identify which templates generate files that produce linting errors. Check for common issues like trailing whitespace, missing newlines, or incorrect heading formatting. Consider running a markdown linter on sample output to pinpoint specific rules violated. The fix may involve adjusting template strings or adding a post processing step. Review any existing CI configuration for linting steps.
