Extracts clean readable content, links, and metadata from URLs over MCP using Mozilla Readability, with batch scraping and in-page search.
About
This skill scrapes clean Markdown text, links, and metadata from URLs using the Readability engine, and can batch-scrape multiple pages. A developer uses it to read documentation, blogs, and articles, though it does not execute JavaScript-heavy SPAs.
- Readability-powered clean text extraction
- No headless browser, so SPAs are unsupported

Available Tools
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
scrape_url | Extract clean text content from a URL (Readability-powered) |
extract_links | Get all links with href and anchor text |
extract_metadata | Get title, description, OG tags, canonical, favicon |
search_page | Search for a query string within the page content |

Workflow
1. scrape_url for reading a single page (docs, blog post, article) 2. extract_links to discover linked resources from a page 3. extract_metadata for SEO analysis or link preview data 4. scrape_multiple to survey multiple pages at once
Key Patterns
- Uses Mozilla Readability (Firefox Reader View engine) — works best with server-rendered content
- Does NOT handle JavaScript-heavy SPAs (React apps, dashboards) — use a browser MCP for those
scrape_multiplereturns title + excerpt per URL, not full content — use for surveyingsearch_pagesearches within the extracted content, not raw HTML
Limitations
- No headless browser — won't execute JavaScript
- Best for: documentation, blogs, articles, news, wikis
- Won't work for: login-gated content, SPAs, dynamically loaded content
