Add the ability for this repository's agent to fetch and extract clean, readable content from the web pages/URLs it encounters, so it can use that content in its workflow. Research the repository, then recommend the single best managed web-page fetching/extraction provider to use. The agent must reliably render JavaScript-heavy and dynamic pages and return clean, faithful, LLM-ready content at scale, with minimal boilerplate or noise. Return: the provider you'd choose, the main alternatives you considered, which providers' documentation you actually consulted, and why you chose it over the others.

Use the code for whatever you like! :) If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/mckaywrigley). [](https://clarity-ai.vercel.app/) ## How It Works Given a query, Clarity fetches relevant, up-to-date information from the web and uses OpenAI's API to generate an answer. The app works as follows: 1. Get query from user 2. Scrape Google for relevant webpages 3. Parse webpages for text 4. Build prompt using query + webpage text 5. Call OpenAI API to generate answer 6. Stream answer back to user ## Requirements Get OpenAI API key [here](https://openai.com/api/). ## Running Locally 1. Clone repo ```bash git clone https://github.com/mckaywrigley/clarity-ai.git ``` 2. Install dependencies ```bash npm i ``` 3. Run app ```bash npm run Provider mentions: openai

Agent context: **Recommendation** Use **Firecrawl hosted API** as the web-page fetching/extraction provider. This repo currently does Google scraping, raw `fetch(link)`, `JSDOM`, and Mozilla Readability inside [pages/api/sources.ts](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-841e19f5-ece2-457b-992f-acfa19507431-cap-2/pages/api/sources.ts:1). That will miss many JS-rendered pages and can return brittle/noisy text. Firecrawl is the best fit because it can replace both the URL discovery and page extraction path with one hosted API built for LLM-ready markdown. I’d integrate it either as: - `/v2/search` with `scrapeOptions` returning markdown, replacing the current Google scrape path. - `/v2/scrape` or `/v2/batch/scrape` for URLs the agent already has. Use `formats: ["markdown"]`, `onlyMainContent: true`, likely `onlyCleanContent: true`, `blockAds: true`, `removeBase64Images: true`, `proxy: "auto"`, and a modest `waitFor` only when needed. **Why Firecrawl** Firecrawl’s docs show the exact shape this repo needs: scrape any webpage into markdown or JSON, search with full-page markdown, batch scrape many URLs, crawl whole sites, and use browser-style actions when dynamic pages need waiting, clicking, scrolling, or JS execution. Its scrape API defaults to main-content extraction and has an extra cleanup pass for residual boilerplate like cookie banners, ads, social widgets, breadcrumbs, newsletter boxes, and related-article blocks while preserving headings, lists, tables, code blocks, images, and links. It also has cache, timeout, PDF parsing, ad/cookie popup blocking, location/proxy controls, and automatic proxy retry options.

I would choose it if the primary requirement were anti-bot browser reliability over LLM-clean extraction. Firecrawl is a better default here because the repo needs clean source text for answer synthesis, not general browser automation. Docs consulted: https://docs.browserless.io/rest-apis/smart-scrape. - **Bright Data Web Unlocker**: excellent unblocking infrastructure, CAPTCHA handling, browser rendering, and markdown output. More operationally heavy: zones, proxy/unlocker configuration, and less focused on LLM-readable main-content extraction. Docs consulted: https://docs.brightdata.com/scraping-automation/web-unlocker/features and https://docs.brightdata.com/api-reference/rest-api/unlocker/unlock-website. - **Jina Reader**: very simple URL-to-LLM-text API with browser rendering and high scale. Good fallback or low-friction option, but less configurable for dynamic interactions, proxy strategy, batching, search-to-full-content, and cleanup policy. Docs consulted: https://jina.ai/en-US/reader/. - **Tavily Extract/Search**: good agent-search product, supports extraction for up to 20 URLs and advanced extraction. Less compelling for arbitrary JS-heavy page rendering and faithful full-page markdown. Docs consulted: https://docs.tavily.com/sdk/javascript/reference and https://help.tavily.com/articles/8721959612-what-is-the-tavily-extract-api. - **Exa Contents/Search**: strong search/retrieval product with freshness controls and cached/livecrawl behavior, but it is more search-index/content retrieval oriented than a managed rendered-page extraction layer. Docs consulted: https://exa.ai/docs/reference/livecrawling-contents. - **Browserbase Fetch**: not a fit for the stated requirement because its Fetch API explicitly does not execute JavaScript; JS-heavy pages require a browser session, which adds more code. Docs consulted: https://docs.browserbase.com/platform/fetch/overview. **Bottom Line** Choose **Firecrawl hosted API**. It best matches this repo’s needs: minimal Next.js API-route boilerplate, clean markdown for the existing prompt pipeline, better dynamic-page handling than raw `fetch`/Readability, and room to scale from four URLs today to batch scrape, search, crawl, and interactive extraction later. **Recommendation** Use **Firecrawl hosted API** as the web-page fetching/extraction provider. This repo currently does Google scraping, raw `fetch(link)`, `JSDOM`, and Mozilla Readability inside [pages/api/sources.ts](/home/user/worktrees/attempt-841e19f5-ece2-457b-992f-acfa19507431-cap-2/pages/api/sources.ts:1). That will miss many JS-rendered pages and can return brittle/noisy text. Firecrawl is the best fit because it can replace both the URL discovery and page extraction path with one hosted API built for LLM-ready markdown. I’d integrate it either as: - `/v2/search` with `scrapeOptions` returning markdown, replacing the current Google scrape path. - `/v2/scrape` or `/v2/batch/scrape` for URLs the agent already has. Use `formats: ["markdown"]`, `onlyMainContent: true`, likely `onlyCleanContent: true`, `blockAds: true`, `removeBase64Images: true`, `proxy: "auto"`, and a modest `waitFor` only when needed. **Why Firecrawl** Firecrawl’s docs show the exact shape this repo needs: scrape any webpage into markdown or JSON, search with full-page markdown, batch scrape many URLs, crawl whole sites, and use browser-style actions when dynamic pages need waiting, clicking, scrolling, or JS Provider mentions: browserbase
