Generic scraper
Use when the user wants to extract content from any website not covered by a dedicated site skill — extract visible text, links, tables, structured metadata (JSON-LD, Open Graph), or take a screenshot-based reading of the current page. Works on any public URL without prebuilt action code. A real browser is required for JavaScript-rendered pages; plain fetch works for static HTML.From its SKILL.md
