Web to Markdown Skill

A Claude skill that converts web pages to Markdown format using Jina AI's reader service.

Installation

1. Download web-to-markdown.skill
2. In Claude, go to Skills settings and upload the file (Capabilities → Skills → Upload Skill)
3. Important: Allow Claude Desktop to call jina.ai:
   • Open "Settings"
   • Go to "Capabilities"
   • Add *.jina.ai to "Additional Allowed Domains"

Usage

Once installed, you can ask Claude to convert web pages using natural language:

Convert https://example.com/article into markdown

Generate markdown from this website: https://blog.example.com/post

Turn this page into markdown: https://news.example.com/story

The skill recognizes various ways to request conversion:

• "Convert this page to markdown"
• "Generate markdown from this URL"
• "Create an MD file from this website"
• "Download this webpage as markdown"
• "Turn this page into a markdown file"

How It Works

1. Claude extracts the URL from your request
2. The skill prepends https://r.jina.ai/ to your URL
3. Uses curl to retrieve the converted Markdown
4. Saves the content to a .md file
5. Provides a link to download your file
