Markdown Fetch

This skill uses Cloudflare's markdown.new service to fetch any web page as clean markdown instead of raw HTML.

How It Works

Instead of fetching a URL directly, prepend https://markdown.new/ to the target URL. The service automatically:

• Fetches the original page
• Strips unnecessary HTML, scripts, and styling
• Returns clean, readable markdown

Usage

When you need to fetch content from a website, ALWAYS use this pattern:

Original URL: https://example.com/article
Markdown URL: https://markdown.new/https://example.com/article

Example

To read content from https://margaretstorey.com/blog/2026/02/09/cognitive-debt/:

Use WebFetch with:

• URL: https://markdown.new/https://margaretstorey.com/blog/2026/02/09/cognitive-debt/
• Prompt: Extract the main content (or whatever analysis you need)

When to Use

• Fetching blog posts or articles
• Reading documentation pages
• Extracting content from any HTML page
• When you need clean text without HTML noise

Benefits

• Cleaner output than raw HTML
• Smaller response size (no scripts/styles)
• Better for text analysis and summarization
• Works with most public websites
