name: zhipu-web-fetch description: | Zhipu AI Web Page Reader Tool - Fetches and parses web page content into structured Markdown or text via cURL.

Use when:

• Need to fetch and read the content of a web page by URL
• Need to convert web pages to Markdown or plain text format
• Need to extract page content with or without images
• Need to get page metadata (title, description, keywords)
• Need to control caching, image retention, or summary options for fetched content
• User asks to "read a URL", "fetch a page", "grab the content of a web page", "scrape" or "crawl" a URL

Do NOT confuse with web search — this skill fetches a specific URL's content, it does not perform keyword searches. metadata: { "openclaw": { "requires": { "env": ["ZHIPU_API_KEY"], "bins": ["curl"] }, }, }
