Wechat Article Fetcher

Pulls WeChat public account articles from mp.weixin.qq.com links and saves them as HTML, Markdown, or JSON metadata. Handles single articles or batch downloads with configurable delays to avoid rate limits. Downloads images with proper referer headers since WeChat uses lazy loading, organizes output by account and date, and can extract just the metadata if you don't need files. The short URL format is more reliable than the long __biz URLs which sometimes trigger captchas. Built on BeautifulSoup and html2text, with a Python API if you want to integrate it into your own scripts instead of using the CLI.
