Visit Website Reworked for LM Studio

An LM Studio plugin for fetching web pages, extracting structured page data, and downloading images for use in chat.

Version 1.3.0 focuses on more reliable HTML parsing, safer image downloads, better blocked-page handling, and clearer output for LLM workflows.

Tools

Visit Website: fetches a URL and returns title, structured headings, links, images, text content, and fetch diagnostics.
Download Images: downloads remote image URLs or extracts images from a website URL, stores them locally, and returns renderable Markdown image references.

Visit Website Output

Visit Website returns structured data such as:

Headings are returned as headings: { h1[], h2[], h3[] }, with up to 5 entries per level.

Key Improvements in v1.3.0

Reliability and Fallback Behavior

The plugin first tries to fetch the target URL directly. If the page appears blocked or returns a common anti-bot status such as 401, 403, 429, or 503, it can retry through r.jina.ai.

This fallback is enabled by default to preserve existing behavior. Users who do not want URLs forwarded to a third-party service can disable Jina Fallback in plugin settings.

The fetch metadata in Visit Website shows whether content came from:

direct: fetched from the original site.
jina: fetched through the fallback service.

Image Extraction and Downloads

Image extraction supports:

Standard HTML image attributes: src, data-src, data-original, and srcset.
Markdown image links returned by fallback content.
Remote HTTP(S) image URLs.
Local image paths when passed directly to Download Images.

Downloads are batched in groups of 3 with short pauses between batches. Each remote response must have an image/* content type before it is saved.

When possible, the plugin creates compact WebP thumbnails. sharp remains an optional dependency; if thumbnail creation fails, the original downloaded image is returned.

Configuration

Available settings:

Max Links: maximum number of links returned by Visit Website.
Max Images: maximum number of images extracted and downloaded.
Max Content: maximum text content length returned.
Jina Fallback: enables or disables retry via r.jina.ai for blocked pages.

Use 0 to exclude a section. Use -1 for automatic defaults where supported.
