What This Skill Does

The save-article-with-images skill is a powerful automation tool for OpenClaw designed to transform ephemeral web content into structured, permanent local documentation. Whether you are conducting research, archiving newsletters, or saving technical guides for offline reading, this skill automates the entire lifecycle: fetching web content, extracting images, generating clean Markdown files, and converting them into professional-grade PDF documents. By utilizing advanced parsing techniques like Jina Reader or direct browser evaluation, it ensures compatibility across a wide range of platforms, including complex WeChat Official Account articles.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/barryqin9999/save-article-with-images This command pulls the required logic from the source repository managed by barryqin9999, ensuring your agent has the necessary filesystem permissions and browser interaction capabilities to manage the download workflow.

Use Cases

• Research Archiving: Automatically compile long-form web articles into a searchable, PDF-ready format for your digital library.
• Offline Productivity: Convert content-heavy blog posts into Markdown to read or edit offline without relying on active internet connections.
• Social Media Curation: Save WeChat Official Account articles that are otherwise difficult to capture due to platform-specific restrictions.
• Cross-Platform Portability: Generate portable Markdown files that can be easily synced across devices or imported into knowledge management tools like Obsidian or Notion.

Example Prompts

1. "Save this article for me and convert it to a PDF so I can read it on my flight."
2. "Clip the article at https://example.com/long-read and ensure all embedded images are included in the local folder."
3. "Download article from this WeChat link and save it to my archive with full image support."

Tips & Limitations

• Efficiency: For articles with fewer than three images, the skill skips the full image download process to save disk space and processing time. If you require images regardless, ensure you modify your settings accordingly.
• Jina Reader: We recommend Jina Reader for the most reliable Markdown extraction. If a site uses anti-scraping protections, the skill will automatically attempt to use the Browser Fetch method.
• Storage: Note that this skill performs file writes within your ~/.openclaw/workspace/ directory. Ensure you have sufficient disk space when archiving large collections of image-heavy articles.
