Clean Markdown runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 36 installs a week from npm. Last commit 24 Jul 2026.
Any URL to clean, LLM-ready Markdown for RAG. Strips ads, nav, and boilerplate.
Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check Clean Markdown every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
