Browser Fetch#

Use the skill-relative wrapper through bash. Do not assume browser-fetch is on PATH or installed with executable file permissions.

bash

bash {baseDir}/bin/browser-fetch https://example.com/ --json

Default output is extracted page text from body. Browser Fetch enables Chromium stealth evasions by default. Use --html for full HTML, --json for metadata plus content, or --output PATH --metadata PATH when another command should read files.

Supported options:

• --timeout MS: navigation timeout, default 15000.
• --user-agent VALUE: override browser context user agent.
• --proxy-server URL: proxy for this call.
• --chromium-path PATH: Chromium executable path.
• --no-stealth: disable default stealth evasions for A/B checks.
• --wait-until VALUE: domcontentloaded, load, or networkidle.
• --selector CSS: selector for text extraction, default body.
• --html: output full page HTML.
• --text: output extracted page text.
• --json: output metadata plus content.
• --output PATH: write content to a file.
• --metadata PATH: write metadata JSON to a file.
• --include-metadata: write compact metadata JSON to stderr.
• --fail: exit non-zero for HTTP status >= 400.

Proxy behavior follows curl-style ambient proxy defaults. The CLI uses --proxy-server first, then FETCH_PROXY_SERVER, then ambient HTTP_PROXY or HTTPS_PROXY. Ambient HTTP_PROXY or HTTPS_PROXY is used by default. Set FETCH_USE_ENV_PROXY=0 to ignore ambient proxy variables.

Exit codes:

• 0: acceptable fetch.
• 1: completed fetch with blocked signal, or --fail with HTTP status >= 400.
• 2: command-line usage error.
• 3: runtime fetch error such as timeout, DNS, proxy, browser launch, or connection failure.
