blog-post

A tool for saving an online article as a local folder containing cleaned Markdown text and its downloaded images. It uses a real browser session when an article requires the user’s existing login.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to archive blog posts, Medium or Substack articles, news stories, and similar long-form pages with their images.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of copying article text, finding inline images, and keeping image links working in an offline copy.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

blog-post scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 227 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Download Blog Post

Save a web article as a self-contained local folder: clean markdown with YAML frontmatter, every inline image downloaded and re-referenced, and any Vedic astrology charts digitized to JSON + ASCII.

This combines two tools: Defuddle (clean text, fast, low-token) for the article body, and the gstack browser for images — because Defuddle strips lazy-loaded <img> tags, leaving empty ![]() placeholders. A real browser recovers the image URLs in document order.

Browser — always gstack, never headless

Browser work goes through the gstack browser, which holds the user's logged-in sessions. A fresh Playwright instance is logged out: it silently returns login walls or truncated content that looks like a successful capture.

B="$HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/browse/dist/browse"
"$B" connect        # run from the target directory — another cwd spawns a second
                    # daemon and kills the headed session
"$B" goto "<url>"
"$B" js '<expression>'

The daemon must be in headed mode. browse status reports either headed (attached to the user's real Chrome, carrying their logins) or launched (gstack's own Chromium on a fresh profile, logged into nothing). A launched daemon returns a login wall for every gated page, and a login wall reads as a short page rather than an error — nothing downstream will flag it. Verify the mode, and force a restart when it is wrong:

"$B" status                     # must report `mode: headed`
"$B" connect --force-restart    # only when it does not — a launched daemon holds a
                                # fresh profile with no logins, so nothing is lost

The _browse.py adapter runs this check inside connect() and refuses to continue if it cannot reach headed. Do the same by hand when driving $B directly.

Do NOT disconnect when done. browse disconnect tears down the daemon and the logged-in sessions with it. Leave it running — the daemon is a shared user resource, connect is safe to call again, and only whoever started it should close it. The adapter's close() is deliberately a no-op, so leaving the async with browse_page() block tears down nothing.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

blog-post is a skill published in the GitHub repository mayank-io/mstack (5 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 127 tokens to every session and 2,466 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
