Skill by emilyzhang01
Why use this skill?
Use Emily Web Fetch to instantly pull text from static websites into your OpenClaw agent for fast summaries, data extraction, and real-time news monitoring.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/emilyzhang01/emily-web-fetchWhat This Skill Does
Emily Web Fetch is a specialized OpenClaw agent skill designed to bridge the gap between your AI assistant and the live web. By enabling this skill, your agent gains the capability to perform HTTP GET requests against specified URLs to retrieve raw textual content or HTML markup. This is essential for agents that need to remain informed about real-time events, news updates, or specific data points buried within static web pages. Whether you are tracking market telegraphs, reading technical documentation, or parsing simple web-based announcements, this skill provides the necessary interface to ingest external data into your agent's reasoning process.
Installation
To integrate Emily Web Fetch into your OpenClaw environment, ensure you have the OpenClaw CLI configured correctly. Open your terminal and execute the following command to download and register the skill from the official repository:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/emilyzhang01/emily-web-fetch
Once installed, the fetch(url) tool will become available for your agent to trigger whenever a web-browsing task is initiated by a user request.
Use Cases
- News Monitoring: Automatically fetch latest financial news feeds or press releases from major websites to provide summarized daily briefings.
- Data Extraction: Retrieve text from static data pages, tables, or documentation indices that do not require complex JavaScript interaction.
- Content Summarization: Use the agent to visit a long-form article URL, fetch the text content, and provide a condensed bullet-point summary for quick reading.
- Market Intelligence: Query real-time telegraph channels or announcement boards to extract key data points without manually visiting the sites.
Example Prompts
- "Go to https://www.cls.cn/telegraph and give me a summary of the latest three market updates."
- "Please fetch the content from this URL [https://example-docs.com] and explain the new features mentioned in the introduction."
- "Can you check this page [https://news-site.com/today] and extract any information regarding upcoming product launches?"
Tips & Limitations
To get the best results, keep the following constraints in mind:
- Static Content Only: This skill does not support JavaScript-heavy sites (like React/Vue SPAs) that require browser rendering to display content.
- Character Limit: The tool returns a maximum of 5,000 characters to maintain performance and stay within context window limits. For very long pages, the content may be truncated.
- Network Restrictions: The skill is limited to HTTP/HTTPS GET methods. Ensure the target website does not block automated crawling or violate their robots.txt policy.
- Safety First: Always verify URLs before letting an agent fetch them, as browsing malicious sites can expose the agent to untrusted external data.
