EPUB Chapter Extractor
Extract each chapter from an EPUB file into its own markdown file.
Instructions
When the user wants to extract chapters from an EPUB, run the extraction script with uv:
bash
cd ~/.claude/skills/epub-chapter-extractor && uv run --with ebooklib --with beautifulsoup4 --with html2text --with lxml python extract_chapters.py "/path/to/book.epub" [output_dir]
If output_dir is omitted, creates a folder named after the EPUB in the same directory.
Example
User: "Extract chapters from /path/to/mybook.epub"
bash
cd ~/.claude/skills/epub-chapter-extractor && uv run --with ebooklib --with beautifulsoup4 --with html2text --with lxml python extract_chapters.py "/path/to/mybook.epub"
Output files will be at /path/to/mybook/:
01_introduction.md02_chapter_one.md- etc.
After extraction, open the output folder:
bash
open /path/to/mybook
Output Format
Each chapter file contains:
markdown
# Chapter Title
[Chapter content in markdown format]
Files are numbered for proper sorting: 01_, 02_, etc.
