Documentation

README

fetch-content

Turn any URL or file into clean, analyzable text with source metadata. One script, auto-detects source type.

Quick start

uv run <this-skill-dir>/scripts/fetch.py "<url-or-file>"

No uv? Fallback:

pip install yt-dlp youtube-transcript-api trafilatura pymupdf requests
python3 <this-skill-dir>/scripts/fetch.py "<url-or-file>"

Output goes to stdout: YAML front matter (title, author, date, views/likes, word count) followed by the text. Add --json for structured output, --lang de to prefer another transcript language.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
