Claude has provided some hypotheses about the root cause in the README.md. I have no idea how accurate it is.
Describe your issue
Formatting a Markdown file that contains a ts / tsx fenced code block which uses the --default() syntax introduced in tailwind 4.3 makes
prettier-plugin-tailwindcss@0.8.1 print
Unsupported bare value data type: "-*".
Only valid data types are: "number", "integer", "ratio", "percentage".
```css
--modifier(number,--default(100)-*)
^^
```
once for every declaration in the stylesheet that uses --default(...) as an argument of
--modifier(...). Formatting the identical code as a real .tsx file prints nothing, and the
stylesheet compiles cleanly under tailwindcss@4.3.3. This occurs even when tailwindcss 4.3.3 is present in the repository as a dependency.
This is probably related to #468, but it's not clear to me if that is a separate issue or not. In my case I don't particularly care if the plugin works inside markdown files, I just don't want it to warn on them like this.
