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.
When to Use
- Use when the user provides a normal webpage URL to read, summarize, or analyze.
- Prefer it over noisy page-fetch approaches when token efficiency matters.
- Use for docs, articles, blog posts, and similar public web content.
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) |
