Fetch MCP Server
Convert any URL into readable, LLM-friendly markdown.
fetchhtml → markdown
The fetch MCP server converts any URL into clean, LLM-friendly markdown — strip ads, sidebars, and navigation; keep the actual article or documentation. Pair it with brave-search to build a research loop: search returns URLs, fetch returns content, the AI synthesises an answer.
