| description | Extract distilled page content as Markdown using Chromium's on-device ML page content annotation. |
This skill extracts high-quality, noise-free Markdown content from a webpage using Chromium's experimental, on-device Machine Learning model annotations (Page.getAnnotatedPageContent).
Unlike generic HTML-to-Markdown parsers (e.g. Turndown) which rely on markup syntax heuristics, this approach uses Chromium's visual ML layout analysis. It automatically identifies semantic roles (such as ARTICLE and MAIN) and excludes sidebars, navigation elements, footers, and popups.
