Extract Skill

Extract clean content from specific URLs. Ideal when you know which pages you want content from.

Authentication

The script uses OAuth via the Tavily MCP server. No manual setup required - on first run, it will:

Check for existing tokens in
```
~/.mcp-auth/
```
If none found, automatically open your browser for OAuth authentication

Note: You must have an existing Tavily account. The OAuth flow only supports login — account creation is not available through this flow. Sign up at tavily.com first if you don't have an account.

Alternative: API Key

If you prefer using an API key, get one at https://tavily.com and add to

~/.claude/settings.json

{
  "env": {
    "TAVILY_API_KEY": "tvly-your-api-key-here"
  }
}

Tips

Max 20 URLs per request - batch larger lists
Use
query
+
chunks_per_source
to get only relevant content
Try
basic
first, fall back to
```
advanced
```
if content is missing
Set longer
timeout
for slow pages (up to 60s)
Check
failed_results
for URLs that couldn't be extracted
