What this tool does

Auditing the links in a long Markdown document, checking for broken URLs, listing image sources, or pulling references out for a bibliography, means finding every `[text](url)`, `![alt](url)` and `[text][ref]` in the source, including resolving reference-style links against their `[ref]: url` definitions. This tool scans the text for all three forms, resolves reference links against their definitions, and lists each one with its text, URL, title and type in the order it appears.

How to use it

  1. Paste Markdown text, or load the example.
  2. Review the extracted links in the table below.
  3. Copy the text and URL list for use elsewhere.

Privacy

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your input is never uploaded, stored or shared — closing the tab removes it.

Frequently asked questions

Is my Markdown uploaded anywhere?
No. Extraction happens in JavaScript running in the page, so the document never leaves your device.
Are image links included?
Yes, images are listed separately with type Image, alongside inline and reference-style links.
What happens to a reference link with no matching definition?
It is still listed, with an empty URL and title, so a broken reference is easy to spot.
