Remove the friction of retrieving content from a provided URL and converting it into readable or structured data for downstream tasks. Users who need HTML, JSON, markdown, or plain text from a specific URL get reliable retrieval with control over authentication, redirects, cookies, and timeouts.
Fetch the URL https://example.com/article and return the cleaned markdown content, using WebFetch by default and falling back to curl when custom headers or POST bodies are required.

To convert HTML from a URL into clean markdown, the WebFetch tool retrieves web content and automatically strips boilerplate while rendering JavaScript. This approach yields readable markdown suitable for documentation pages and articles.
The best way to consume JSON API responses is to retrieve the payload and pipe it through jq to filter and reduce token usage. This method ensures you extract only the necessary structured data from the API endpoint.
Yes, you can send HTTP POST requests with custom headers and cookies by using curl as a fallback to WebFetch. Curl provides the necessary control for authentication headers, POST bodies, and cookie management.
Yes, web scraping works with JavaScript-rendered pages by preferring the built-in WebFetch tool, which renders JS and extracts plain text or markdown. For static content or custom headers, curl is recommended instead.
To handle pagination and retries when fetching web content, you can apply advanced retrieval patterns supporting timeouts and redirect management. This ensures reliable content extraction across multiple pages.
You should use curl instead of WebFetch for URL retrieval when you need custom headers, POST body control, or cookie management. WebFetch is preferred for extracting markdown or plain text from JS-rendered pages.
