What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
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
Use Defuddle CLI to extract clean readable content from web pages. Prefer over WebFetch for standard web pages — it removes navigation, ads, and clutter, reducing token usage.
If not installed: npm install -g defuddle
Usage
Always use --md for markdown output:
defuddle parse <url> --md
Save to file:
defuddle parse <url> --md -o content.md
Extract specific metadata:
defuddle parse <url> -p title
defuddle parse <url> -p description
defuddle parse <url> -p domain
Output formats
| Flag | Format |
|---|---|
--md | Markdown (default choice) |
--json | JSON with both HTML and markdown |
| (none) | HTML |
-p <name> | Specific metadata property |

Grouped from the skills themselves: near-identical wordings counted once, and counted by distinct author, so one author publishing three of these counts once. Length counted with cl100k_base; the agent that loads this file may tokenize it differently.
