Nothing to hand? Load the — a page rich in schema.org structured data, where the right template leans on {{schema:…}} paths — or the , a plain blog post where meta tags and an AI-summary variable do the work. Both replay a saved run for free. Or press to watch the validator name nine defects without any model call.
A Clipper template is a format, and formats are checkable
The Obsidian Web Clipper imports JSON templates: schemaVersion 0.1.0, one of three filing behaviors, frontmatter properties with six legal types, auto-select triggers, and a note body woven from {{variables}}. Every one of those rules is measured here, in this tab, for free: paste any template and the check tells you exactly what breaks — an invalid property type, an append-specific path that is not a note, an unbalanced conditional.
The page is the evidence, and the analyzer reads it first
Your pasted HTML is parsed locally into facts: every meta tag, every schema.org JSON-LD path with a sample value, every content selector that actually matches. Those facts power a free skeleton template, and they power the grounding check: a {{selector:…}} that matches nothing on the page, a {{meta:…}} key that is not there, a {{schema:…}} path the JSON-LD never carries — each is named, whether you typed it or the model did.
The metered pass is judgement, and it must show its work
The skeleton captures what the page vouches for; a good template shapes it around what you want kept — schema paths over brittle selectors, the right frontmatter types, triggers that auto-select on the right site, an AI-summary variable where judgement belongs in the note itself. That shaping is what the AI pass adds. It returns strict JSON, declares anything it could not verify, and the same validator re-checks every variable in public. Pricing is honest: a worst-case amount is reserved, only what the run uses is charged, and untouched examples replay a saved run for free. Templates are saved to your account and searchable by meaning.
