Web2MD MCP Server

Convert any URL to clean Markdown — directly from your AI agent.

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that converts public webpages to clean, readable Markdown. Strips ads, navigation, and boilerplate — returns LLM-ready text perfect for RAG, research, and content extraction.

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue.dev, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client.

Quick Start — Remote (no install, 30 seconds)

The fastest way to try it: add the hosted remote server to any MCP client. No code, no install.

Claude Desktop — add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "web2md": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://www-months-resistance-pay.trycloudflare.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor — Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server → type http, URL above.

Claude Code — claude mcp add web2md --transport http https://www-months-resistance-pay.trycloudflare.com/mcp

The remote URL is also published on the official MCP registry as io.github.astra-intelligence/web2md, so it stays discoverable even if this tunnel rotates.

Quick Start — Local (from source)

git clone https://github.com/astra-intelligence/web2md-mcp.git
cd web2md-mcp
pip install .
# or: uv sync

Then add to your client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "web2md": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["web2md-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

⏳ PyPI publication pending. Until then, use the source install above.
