3 of 9 scanners reported clean
Some scanners were skipped, did not run, or reported a non-clean status. Review each row below.
Extract clean markdown from any URL using the ezycopy CLI.
Default mode uses fast HTTP fetch. Add --browser when the page relies on client-side
JavaScript to render its content or when authentication cookies are required — the default
fetcher only sees the raw HTML response, not the JS-rendered DOM.
Common --browser cases: Twitter/X, single-page applications, paywalled content.
-c — copy output to clipboard-o <path> — save to file or directory--browser — use headless Chrome for JS-rendered or authenticated pages--no-images — strip image links-t <duration> — timeout (default: 30s)Run ezycopy <URL> [flags] with the chosen mode.
In --browser mode: run as a foreground process and do not redirect stderr with 2>&1.
Chrome outputs diagnostic messages to stderr that should flow naturally rather than
polluting stdout capture.
If the output is empty or suspiciously short and --browser was not used, retry with
--browser — the site likely requires JS rendering.
If ezycopy is not found, ask the user before installing:
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gupsammy/EzyCopy/main/install.sh | sh
Present the extracted markdown to the user. If the user requested a file save, use -o.
If they requested clipboard, use -c. When no explicit destination was given, display the
content directly.
testing
Recall, search, continue, or analyze past conversations. Triggers on recall phrases ("what did we discuss", "continue where we left off", "we decided"), retrospective phrases ("do a retro", "post-mortem", "what went well", "lessons learned", "find antipatterns"), and implicit signals (past-tense references, possessives without context, assumptive questions like "do you remember").
data-ai
Persist learnings to memory or maintain existing memories. Triggers on "extract learnings", "save this for next time", "remember this pattern", "consolidate memories", "dream", "clean up memories".
development
Use for any image creation or editing request — logo, sticker, product mockup, nano banana, t2i, i2i, multi-reference compositing via generate.py. Not for HTML/CSS mockups, diagrams, or coded UI.
development
This skill should be used when the user says "update CLAUDE.md", "refresh CLAUDE.md", "sync CLAUDE.md with the codebase", "reorganize CLAUDE.md", "optimize project instructions", or when CLAUDE.md is stale, verbose, or out of sync.
