@just-every/mcp-read-website-fast
Fast, token-efficient web content extraction for AI agents - converts websites to clean Markdown.
Overview
Existing MCP web crawlers are slow and consume large quantities of tokens. This pauses the development process and provides incomplete results as LLMs need to parse whole web pages.
This MCP package fetches web pages locally, strips noise, and converts content to clean Markdown while preserving links. Designed for Claude Code, IDEs and LLM pipelines with minimal token footprint. Crawl sites locally with minimal dependencies.
Note: This package now uses @just-every/crawl for its core crawling and markdown conversion functionality.
Features
- Fast startup using official MCP SDK with lazy loading for optimal performance
- Content extraction using Mozilla Readability (same as Firefox Reader View)
- HTML to Markdown conversion with Turndown + GFM support
- Smart caching with SHA-256 hashed URLs
- Polite crawling with robots.txt support and rate limiting
- Concurrent fetching with configurable depth crawling
- Stream-first design for low memory usage
- Link preservation for knowledge graphs
- Optional chunking for downstream processing
