site-scan

List the URLs of a site with web site scan.

Requirements

Node 22+. Locate the web CLI once:

# <skill-dir> is the directory containing this SKILL.md
WEB=$(command -v web || echo "node <skill-dir>/../../cli/dist/web.mjs")

then run $WEB …; it prints exactly one JSON document on stdout, so $WEB … > urls.json is safe. Fallback when published: npx -y @adobe/web-cli. Use an absolute <skill-dir>.

Command

$WEB site scan <origin> [--strategy sitemaps|http] [--include <glob>]... [--exclude <glob>]... \
  [--limit <n>] [--timeout <ms>] [--user-agent <ua>]
$WEB site scan https://example.com > urls.json
$WEB site scan https://example.com --include '/blog/**' --exclude '**/archive/**'

Strategy	When to use
sitemaps (default)	robots.txt Sitemap: lines, else /sitemap.xml; follows sitemap indexes, reads .gz. Best for well-structured sites.
http	Follows <a href> links from <origin>, one page at a time. Use when sitemaps are missing or incomplete; always set --limit.

Only URLs on the origin are kept; fragments are dropped. --include and --exclude are repeatable globs matched against pathname + query (* = any characters, ? = one character): a URL must match an include (when any) and no exclude.

Reading the JSON

{ "origin": "https://example.com", "strategy": "sitemaps", "total": 120, "valid": 118,
  "urls": [ { "url": "https://example.com/fr-fr/a", "lang": "fr-FR" } ],
  "sitemaps": ["https://example.com/sitemap.xml"],
  "errors": [ { "url": "…", "message": "HTTP 404" } ] }

lang comes from a first path segment like fr, fr-fr (empty otherwise). total counts every same-origin URL seen, valid those that passed the filters. errors lists fetches that failed (a missing robots.txt is not one); check them even on success, a failed sitemap means missing URLs. With --strategy http, a start page that is not HTML or redirects to another origin is reported there too, with the origin to scan instead (e.g. www.).

No valid URL → exit 1 EMPTY_RESULT with the errors in the message. Retry with --strategy http, or check the origin. A site that blocks plain HTTP needs browser-probe; this command does not drive a browser.
