Extract clean markdown content from web pages using Defuddle CLI, removing clutter and navigation to save tokens. Use instead of WebFetch when the user provides a URL to read or analyze, for online documentation, articles, blog posts, or any standard web page. Do NOT use for URLs ending in .md — those are already markdown, use WebFetch directly.

defuddle

Extract clean markdown from web pages via Defuddle CLI (strips nav/ads/clutter, saves tokens). Trigger whenever the user pastes a URL or says "read this article", "fetch this page", "summarize this blog post", "pull this doc"; use this instead of WebFetch for any standard article, doc, or blog. Skip for APIs/JSON/raw downloads.

web-browsing

Navigate, interact with, and read live web pages from the terminal by combining the agent-browser CLI (headless Chrome over CDP) with the defuddle CLI (clean Markdown extraction). Use whenever a task needs a real browser — opening a page, filling a form, clicking through a flow, logging in, taking a screenshot, testing a web app, scraping data — or whenever a URL needs to be read as clean Markdown instead of raw HTML, including JS-rendered SPAs and pages behind a login that a plain HTTP fetch cannot see. Triggers on "open a website", "read this page", "fetch this URL", "what does this page say", "fill out a form", "take a screenshot", "scrape this page", "log in to", "test this web app", 瀏覽器自動化, 開網頁, 讀這個網頁, 網頁截圖, 填表單, 抓網頁內容. Prefer this over WebFetch and over any other browser automation approach.
