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.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# 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` ## Mindset Defuddle is a server-side HTML stripper, not a browser. Think of it as getting the printed article without the magazine wrapper — it fetches raw HTML and removes boilerplate, always faster and cheaper than WebFetch for standard pages. **When to apply:** Any standard HTTP page — documentation, articles, blog posts, wikis. **When NOT to apply:** SPAs requiring JavaScript, login-gated pages, JSON API endpoints, or pages behind auth redirects. When in doubt, try defuddle first; if the output is empty or navigation-only, fall back to WebFetch. ## Quick Start 1. Confirm the URL is a standard web page (not a SPA or auth-required page) 2. Run `defuddle parse <url> --md` to extract clean markdown 3. If output is empty or only navigation text, fall back to WebFetch 4. Save output with `-o file.md` when persistence is needed ## When to Use Use this decision framework before fetching any URL: | Scenario | Tool | Reason | …

How to install
mdr add pantheon-org/tekhne/defuddle@sha256:f90a789cbeb5af0dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260316.13efaab, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
