It seems like every other day I'm seeing new tools for scraping the web to Markdown. I would like to point out two of my own that seem to be constantly overlooked in the fray:

Gather: https://github.com/ttscoff/gather-cli — a solid command line tool that performs a custom Arc90 readability, advanced Markdown conversion (handling footnotes, tables, etc.) and integrates well as a skill in your AI assistant (working on an MCP for it)
Marky: https://fuckyeahmarkdown.com (a web-based tool with optional readability and an API for automation, ostensibly also usable as a skill)

@ttscoff not sure if the MCP is worth it, MCP definitions have a context cost all the time and the models are super good at digging around a cli when they need it. Skills or even a AGENTS.md saying to use the tool with an example should be enough! MCPs these days are best when you need to handle auth stuff
