Yet another URL -> Markdown service. curl.md's angle is it is focused on developers.

One of the surprising things about converting HTML to Markdown: You often don't need to.

- grab .md files from repos

- append `/index.md` or `.md` to URL

- use 'Accept: text/markdown' header

- GitHub docs article API -> `/api/article?pathname=`

- ... and lots of other shortcuts

You can try out:

- the playground https://curl.md/playground

- do `curl curl.md/example.com` in your terminal

- or open curl.md/example.com in your browser

GitHub if anyone wants to take a look https://github.com/wevm/curl.md

This is quite interesting. I'm going to try it.

If I understand correctly, my agent just needs to run `curl curl.md/targetsite.com` and it will receive the webpage in an optimized Markdown file format.

Is there any specific depth until which curl.md will crawl?

    Yes, your agent can use it with `curl` or via the CLI, SDK, or agent plugins (currently Claude, OpenCode, Pi, Amp are supported). More info https://curl.md/docs/install

    No crawling yet. Focused on single page for now.
