Read paywalled news/media (lemonde.fr, nytimes, ft, mediapart) via the browser skill: handle the CMP consent wall, use the subscriber/paywall cookie, extract via ld+json / readability. Use for 'read/extract this article' on EU/paywalled news.
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
# News / media (lemonde.fr, etc.) — recon plan **Different pattern from social.** News content lives in the **HTML article body** (not a social GraphQL API), so here **readability extraction wins** — API-first does NOT apply. The two real gates are **(1) the CMP consent wall** and **(2) the paywall/subscriber session**. Worked example: lemonde.fr (probed live). ## The two gates ### 1. CMP consent wall (EU sites — the FIRST blocker) ✅ handled live > Validated on lemonde.fr: the accept button is **`"Accepter et continuer"`** — > snapshot → click it → `hasConsent` flips **false → true** (euconsent/didomi > cookie set), wall cleared for the session. (Other labels below for other > CMPs.) Le Monde shows a full GDPR consent wall before content: _"L'accès gratuit au site … subordonné à votre consentement"_ with `button "Gestion des cookies"`, `"À quoi servent les cookies ?"`, and accept/subscribe choices. Until handled, content + scraping are blocked. - **Handle it:** `take_snapshot` → find the accept button (labels vary: `"Accepter et fermer"` / `"Tout accepter"` / `"J'accepte"` / `"Continuer sans accepter"` / sometimes only `"S'abonner"` as the consent-choice) → `click` it. …

How to install
mdr add agentproto/ts/news-media@sha256:654f36a276edb715The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260717.c271e80, 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.
