Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/issues/310

The file's shebang line should be stripped before the text is passed to rules.
I found that rules 18 and 41 complain on the line. This should be simple to implement.

Can you please show an example? I’m not familiar with shebang in Markdown; the files are not usually executable.

The pattern is not widespread but it enables some exciting use-cases.

I support it in my https://github.com/brandonkal/inkjet tool to build rapid CLIs and as a project task runner.
There is also https://github.com/bashup/mdsh to compile markdown to bash scripts.

It’s a slight abuse of the feature, but have you tried defining a front matter regular expression to match the shebang syntax? That should tell the tool to strip that first line out automatically.

For this use case, I the suggestion above seems to work fine:

pi@pi:~/shebang $ cat shebang.md
#!/usr/bin/env node

# Heading

Markdown text.
pi@pi:~/shebang $ cat .markdownlint-cli2.jsonc
{
  "frontMatter": "^#!.*(\r?\n)"
}
pi@pi:~/shebang $ markdownlint-cli2 shebang.md
Finding: shebang.md
Linting: 1 file(s)
Summary: 0 error(s)
pi@pi:~/shebang $

Closing issue since this seems to be an uncommon scenario and the approach outlined above works.
