Fetching from the wire…
Public story · 2026-08-29 · source-backed
10,936 tokens against 1,552,491 for raw HTML across 15 real pages, and the author claims it was the only reader returning real content on every page tested. The concrete cost comparison: $0.27 against $0.52 for five Wikipedia questions, 23% cheaper than WebFetch and 35% cheaper than WebSearch on eleven language-docs lookups at equal or better accuracy. The limit is stated plainly and matters: it reads, it doesn't drive a browser, and it silently drops content hidden in accordions, tabs and version switchers. Silent drops on tabbed API docs would bite me specifically. (GitHub)
