Step one

Knows it's a wiki
before you do.

WikiClaw checks the URL against the MediaWiki API and shows the wiki's actual name and page count before you start. No cryptic failures three hours into a long crawl. If it isn't a MediaWiki, you're told immediately.

Verified Terraria Wiki, 4847 pages
Modes.app

Step two

Two modes,
one switch.

Pick For AI / RAG and get clean Markdown chunks ready for embedding. Pick Full archive and get every image and raw HTML on disk. One choice, no toggle hunting.

Step three

See every step.

Plain-English progress: "Looking through pages", "Saving each page", "Downloading images". Two dimensions of progress always visible — which step, and how far through it. Stop anytime.
