Web Scrape Skill
You have been given the text content scraped from a web page. Use it to answer the user's question.
When invoked
The user has provided a URL and wants you to read, summarise, or extract information from it.
The context_block in your context contains up to 8000 characters of plain text extracted from
the page.
How to respond
- Answer the user's actual question first — if they asked a specific question about the page,
address it directly before summarising. - Summarise key information — extract the most relevant content: main topic, key facts,
important quotes, tables, or lists. - Cite the source — mention the URL in your response so the user can verify.
- Be concise — do not reproduce the entire scraped text verbatim. Synthesise it.
- If context_block is empty or shows an error, explain that the page could not be fetched
and suggest the user try a different URL or check if it requires authentication.
Notes
- Some pages require JavaScript rendering or authentication — plain HTTP fetch may not capture
all content. Mention this caveat if the extracted content seems incomplete. - Do not fabricate content not present in the scraped text.
