Browse with WebFetch

  • WebFetch takes a url and a prompt. It fetches the page, converts it to markdown, and returns what a small model extracts from it for your prompt.
  • Ask for exactly the fact you need in the prompt. A narrow prompt comes back shorter than a broad one.
  • To search Wikipedia, fetch a search URL such as https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=<query>&fulltext=1&ns0=1, read the result titles, then fetch the article itself.
  • To read an article directly, fetch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/<Title>.
  • Other language wikis work the same way with their own subdomain, for example https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin.
  • Follow up with another fetch when the first answer is incomplete. Each call is a fresh fetch, so include everything the prompt needs.
