What it does

This skill teaches an AI agent how to handle web pages as sources for an Obsidian-style wiki. For a web address, it only writes a plan and does not fetch the page, since network cleaning is not enabled in this package. For a local HTML or Markdown file the user already has, it copies the original bytes into a protected raw-storage folder inside the vault, using a reviewed preview-then-apply process, without rendering or running the file.

Great for

  • Users building a personal Obsidian wiki who want to keep source files as unchanged records
  • People who want a safety-first, reviewable workflow before any web content is pulled into notes
  • Developers evaluating how agents can handle external content without silent network access

Skip it if

  • Anyone expecting the skill to automatically download and clean a web page now, because network extraction is explicitly unavailable until an enforcing adapter is verified
  • Users wanting high-quality text extraction or token savings, since the skill does not claim or provide them
  • Sensitive or private content handled with unreviewed URLs, because approval is required for each destination and the skill still depends on external tools that may fetch extra resources

Try asking

  • “Plan a readable capture of https://example.com/article without fetching it yet”
  • “Save this local file inbox/source.md into my wiki's raw capture storage”
  • “Check whether a Defuddle executable is available for my vault using the contracts verify command”
  • “Prepare this downloaded HTML page for later wiki ingestion as a retained source”

Get better results

  • Start with the dry-run capture plan and review the approved_plan_sha256 before applying any change
  • Place local files in the vault inbox first and keep operation IDs so changes can be audited
  • Treat any 'configured' Defuddle status as unverified and do not rely on it for extraction quality
