README

web-fetch

LLM-neutral skill for fetching a URL and writing the body to a temp file so an agent can pipe the path through `rg` / `jq` / `awk` instead of dumping the whole page into the conversation.

Same shape as [`pi-webfetch`](https://github.com/code-yeongyu/pi-webfetch) and [`opencode/webfetch`](https://github.com/sst/opencode), packaged as a standalone skill that any Bash-capable agent (Claude Code, OpenCode, pi, hermes, openclaw) can load.

Install

git clone https://github.com/code-yeongyu/web-fetch ~/.agents/skills/web-fetch

That is it. The script is single-file Python 3 stdlib; no `pip install` needed. `curl` is preferred but optional (urllib fallback).

Symlink for active development

ln -s /path/to/your/clone ~/.agents/skills/web-fetch

Other agents

Claude Code / OpenCode: drop the directory under ~/.agents/skills/ and the skill auto-registers via the name + description in the frontmatter.
pi (~/.senpi/agent): not a pi extension - this is a skill, not a Tool extension. Pi consumes skills via ~/.agents/skills/ symlinks; see ~/.senpi/.pi/agent/skills/ for the convention.
Direct CLI use: python3 ~/.agents/skills/web-fetch/scripts/web_fetch.py .
