I have two that I've been thinking about that I've been too lazy to cobble together myself:

A page change tracker that A: pumps the page through uBlock origin before each snapshot and B; produces an RSS feed with a summary of changes.

A web page to epub converter that A: sends the page through uBlock origin or similar, B: sends the result through the postlight parser, and then C: gives the user a chance to customize the result before packaging it up as an epub. Customisation would include setting a cover image (or none,) setting a title and other metadata, choosing to include a TOC or not, renaming any chapters if a TOC is included, etc. Currently my workflow for this involves someone's "web page to epub" converter personal project that isn't entirely designed for single pages and a bunch of time on Sigil cleaning up the resulting output.

what do you mean by uBlock origin? what's the use case here?
