browser_get_html

Browser Get Html

Extract HTML content with configurable cleaning levels. Optionally target a specific element using a CSS selector to get its innerHTML instead of the full page. When the selector matches multiple elements, returns a JSON array of HTML strings. 'minimal' preserves most structure, 'basic' removes scripts and styles, 'aggressive' strips to essential content. Useful for page analysis, content extraction, and feeding HTML to other processing tools.
