contextfetch_search

Search the web and get LLM-ready Markdown.

Inferred read-only
contextfetch_extract_url

Fetch a public web page (docs, articles, GitHub files, arXiv papers) as clean Markdown with tables preserved.

Inferred read-only
contextfetch_find_similar

Find pages similar to a given URL (alternatives, related docs, competing libraries), excluding the source domain.

Inferred read-only
contextfetch_research

Research a question in one call, server-side: runs up to 5 web searches (sub-queries) concurrently, dedupes the pages by URL, ranks them all against the question with a cross-encoder and returns one Markdown evidence pack with numbered [n] sources and their query-pruned passages, quoted verbatim (no generated text).

Inferred read-only
contextfetch_deep_research

Same as contextfetch_research (kept for existing clients): up to 3 sub-queries run server-side, sources deduped and ranked against the question, one Markdown evidence pack with numbered sources and query-pruned passages.

Inferred read-only
contextfetch_answer

Answer a question with passages quoted verbatim from the web, never generated: searches, scores every passage of the top pages with a cross-encoder and returns the best ones with [n] citations to their sources.

Inferred read-only
contextfetch_crawl

Crawl one website from a start URL and get its pages as Markdown: same-site links only, up to `max_depth` hops (<= 3) and `limit` pages (<= 50).

Potential side effects

Get a free ContextFetch API key (no signup, no payment) with starter credits, for when the keyless daily limit runs out.
