pages as Markdown via 
Accept: text/markdown
. Responses include a YAML frontmatter block with page metadata (
title
, 
description
, 
image
).
Current first-class support in this skill is single-page fetching through the bundled script below. It is intended for homepage, article-page, and column-page reads, not broad site crawling.

When to Use

  • The user provides or implies a PANews web URL
  • The task is to read the rendered article page, homepage, or column page as Markdown
  • The caller wants the page content, not the underlying JSON API shape

Do Not Use When

  • The task is structured search, rankings, or filtered API retrieval
  • The task requires creator authentication or write access
  • The user asks for JSON fields rather than page Markdown

Supported Languages

Standard Workflow

text
PANews Web Progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Confirm this is a website-page task, not an API task
- [ ] Step 2: Choose the locale prefix
- [ ] Step 3: Fetch with Accept: text/markdown
- [ ] Step 4: Preserve frontmatter metadata in the response

Scripts

bash
node {Skills Directory}/panews-web-viewer/scripts/fetch-page.mjs <path-or-url> [--lang zh]

Usage

bash
node {Skills Directory}/panews-web-viewer/scripts/fetch-page.mjs /articles/ARTICLE_ID --lang en
node {Skills Directory}/panews-web-viewer/scripts/fetch-page.mjs https://www.panewslab.com/zh-hant/columns/COLUMN_ID

Rules

  • Prefer the bundled 
    fetch-page.mjs
    script; if you fall back to 
    curl
    , use 
    -sSL
  • Always include the locale prefix in the URL
  • Route to 
    panews
    if the user asks for structured search or filterable API data

Failure Handling

  • If the page returns 
    404
    , report it as unavailable rather than trying to synthesize content from API endpoints
  • If the caller gives a path without a locale prefix, add the prefix from 
    --lang
    or default to 
    zh
