Give agents a crawler that saves docs as Markdown

pulpie-mcp saved 60 doc pages as clean Markdown in ~49s with a local 210M model, writing files instead of flooding context.

Prompt for your agent

Goal: Let my coding agents pull full documentation sites into local Markdown.
Setup: agents used in source: Claude, Codex; tools/MCPs stated: pulpie-mcp, uv.
Steps:
1. Install: uv tool install git+https://github.com/pinkpixel-dev/pulpie-mcp
2. Add to Claude Code: claude mcp add --scope user pulpie -- pulpie-mcp (or add it to ~/.codex/config.toml for Codex).
3. Ask the agent to crawl_docs a documentation site; it checks robots.txt and sitemaps first.
4. Pages are saved to files and only a summary returns, so the agent searches and reads them when needed.
Rules: ask me before anything irreversible (sending, posting, paying, deleting); don’t invent data, results or tools I haven’t given you; tell me what you couldn’t verify.
