Publishing Markdown with Mermaid from GitHub

I’m trying to set up an auto-publishing system on a WordPress site where posts can be created from Markdown files on GitHub. The problem I’m having is that some of these files contain Mermaid diagrams, which WordPress can normally handle using a plug-in like Markdown Renderer.

However, the plugins that I have found that get documents from GitHub (all relatively old), e.g., Git It Write and Documents from Git, both process the Markdown first and render it as HTML before publishing. As such, the Mermaid code is rendered inside HTML <code> tags.

Does anyone have a set up that they are using to make something like this possible, where WP can fetch a file from GitHub on commit and put the contents inside a block like the GFM blocks provided by Markdown Renderer?

Thanks for your help!
