What problem does it solve?

Extract clean, readable text content (markdown) from any web page. Use this when reading articles, docs, GitHub READMEs, blog posts, social posts, or papers, or when the user says "read this page", "what does this link say", provides a URL to read, curl returns noisy HTML, or WebFetch returns truncated, summarized, or refused results.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Content extraction: Convert noisy HTML pages into clean, markdown-formatted text.
  • Versatile targeting: Handles articles, docs, READMEs, blogs, social posts, and research papers.
  • Fallback planning: If the page is JS-rendered or anti-bot protected, the skill routes to agent-browser or scrapling as needed.

Quick Start

Provide the cleaned Markdown text for the requested URL by fetching the page and stripping navigation, ads, and chrome.
