Description

Extraction of data directly from URL in addition to fetched html/JSON context. Sometimes the page will not yield any useful data but the URL does. Or both has useful data but not full overlap. For cases like these it would be useful if we could regex data out of the URL.

Research direction

Start by locating Hydrus's existing HTML/JSON data extraction entry point and tracing how fetched context is processed. Determine where URL data could be supplied alongside that context, then define regex extraction behavior for URL-only and overlapping cases. Done means URL-derived data is available without breaking existing HTML/JSON extraction.
