title: Web Fetch
description: Fetch web page text content
---
Use curl to fetch web pages and extract readable text content. A lightweight web access method without browser automation.
## Dependencies
| Dependency | Description |

| `curl` | System command (usually pre-installed) |
This skill has `always: true` set, enabled by default as long as the system has the `curl` command.
## Usage
Automatically invoked when the Agent needs to fetch content from a URL, no extra configuration needed.
## Comparison with browser Tool
| Feature | web-fetch (skill) | browser (tool) |
