Hey HN! I originally built “html-to-markdown” back in 2018 (while still in high school) to handle complex HTML conversions where other libraries struggled. Now, I’ve released v2 — a complete rewrite designed to handle even more edge cases. It supports entire websites with a high accuracy. Example use: I’ve used it in my RSS reader to strip HTML down to clean Markdown, similar to the "Reader Mode" in your Browser. It can be used as a Golang package or as an CLI. Give it a try & tell me what edge cases you encounter!

Hey HN, I made Browser-Use, an open-source tool that lets (all Langchain supported) LLMs execute tasks directly in the browser just with function calling. It allows you to build agents that interact with web elements using natural language prompts. We created a layer that simplifies website interaction for LLMs by extracting xPaths and interactive elements like buttons and input fields (and other fancy things). This enables you to design custom web automation and scraping functions without manual inspection through DevTools. Hasn't this been done a lot of times? Good question, as a general…

I recently saw a post from the Vercel CEO pointing out that LLMs understand websites much better when they can request: `Accept: text/markdown` Most websites today are built for humans. When AI agents try to consume them, they get complex HTML instead of clean, structured content. So I built *accept-md* – a simple open-source package for Next.js that helps solve this. Getting started is intentionally minimal: ``` npx accept-md init ``` After that, your existing Next.js routes can automatically respond with Markdown whenever an AI agent (or any client) requests it. No redesigns, no CMS…

Hey HN, In this age of agentic coding I've found myself spending a lot of time reviewing markdown files. Whether it's plans or documentation that I've asked my agent to generate for me, it seems that I spend more time reading markdown than code. I've tried a few different solutions to make it easier to read such as Obsidian however I've found their Vault system to be quite limiting for this use case and I've found TUI solutions to not quite be as friendly to read as I've wanted so I made Marky. Marky is a lightweight desktop application that makes it incredibly easy to read and track your…

TL;DR: I built a Chrome extension that copies webpage content or YouTube subtitles as clean, clutter-free Markdown with one click (or a shortcut). It even shows the token count, making it super handy for LLM prompts! Hi, HN! I often copy information from the web into my notes (Obsidian) or to feed context to LLMs for summaries/translations. So I built cpdown, a browser extension for this. cpdown lets you convert any webpage/youtube subtitle into clean Markdown and copy it to your clipboard with a single click (or a keyboard shortcut). Here are the key features: * Intelligent…

TideSurf▲3Browser use agents tend to prefer the models' native multimodality over concrete source, and, even if they do, they still tend to take too much context to even barely function. I was running into this problem when using LLM Agents; Then I came up with an idea. What if I can just... send the rendered DOM to the agent, but with markdown-like compression? Turns out, it works! It reduces token consumption by thirty-two times on GitHub (vs. raw DOM), at least according to my experiments, while only taking ~30ms to parse. Also, it comes with 18 tools for LLMs to work interactively with pages, and…

Hey HN I built MarkdownConverters.com — a tool that converts any file format (PDF, DOCX, PPTX, HTML, or URL) into clean, structured Markdown. I often needed to prep documents, reports, or scraped pages for AI pipelines, documentation, or version control, but existing tools either broke formatting, lost code blocks, or produced unreadable Markdown. So I built something that focuses on: • Accurate structure (headings, lists, tables, code, links) • Consistent Markdown output ready for LLMs or docs • Fast, browser-based conversion with privacy-friendly processing • Support for multi-format and…
