Site To Markdown

Text REST API MCP

Convert a full web page's HTML into clean Markdown, the way the Site to Markdown page does: navigation, footers, scripts, styles, iframes and SVG are removed, the content root is <main>, <article> or [role="main"] when present, and headings, lists, links, images, code blocks, blockquotes and tables become Markdown. Pass the page HTML (this tool does not fetch) and optionally the page URL so relative links and images resolve to absolute ones. Returns the markdown plus word, line, and character counts.

This page documents the MCP tool findutils:site_to_markdown. See the REST reference →
