System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
It eliminates the manual effort of downloading Medium articles by URL, including member-only stories, and converting them into offline-ready content for downstream processing.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Authenticated, real-Chrome fetching: Uses a persistent real Chrome profile to access content behind Cloudflare and Medium membership gates.
- Cross-domain SSO handling: Automatically routes publication custom-domain URLs through Medium’s SSO bridge to ensure the right cookies are applied.
- Readability + Turndown cleanup: Extracts the main article body and outputs Readability-cleaned Markdown with images downloaded locally.
- Leaf executor output contract: Writes results to a caller-provided RAW_DIR as markdown + assets without translating, summarizing, or choosing storage destinations.
Quick Start
Ask the assistant to download the Medium article at the given URL and store the resulting Markdown and local image assets in your provided RAW_DIR.
