Curated by Skill Harbor — a Baoyu reader utility: fetches any URL via the baoyu-fetch CLI (Chrome CDP with site-specific adapters) and converts it to clean markdown — with built-in adapters for X/Twitter, YouTube transcripts, Hacker News threads, and generic pages via Defuddle, plus login/CAPTCHA handling through interaction wait modes. This is the INVERSE direction of the already-listed jimliu-baoyu-markdown-to-html — that one renders markdown as styled HTML; this one extracts web pages into markdown. Not a duplicate. By @jimliu, listed here with credit to its creator. Honest caveats: requires Bun and a Chrome/Chromium the CDP driver can control; first-time setup asks for preferences (media handling, output directory) — it won't silently pick defaults; respect robots.txt and sites' terms of use. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use.

Install
Prerequisites: Bun installed; a Chrome/Chromium browser the CDP driver can control Install "Baoyu URL to Markdown" for me. Fetch any URL and convert it to clean markdown via Chrome CDP Repository: https://github.com/JimLiu/baoyu-skills/blob/main/skills/baoyu-url-to-markdown/SKILL.md 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file for the jimliu-baoyu-url-to-markdown skill from the repository into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md and scripts for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code, credentials only via the secure vault, allowed hosts declared in the SKILL.md. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md and its helper files into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "jimliu-baoyu-url-to-markdown". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. any accounts, API keys, or CLI tools mentioned in the prerequisites above). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. Never ask me to paste secrets in chat — credentials go through the secure vault or environment variables. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
