From your description I thought for a second that you were somehow parsing the page :D

On that note, this is the shell alias I use to remember status codes (using htmlq https://github.com/mgdm/htmlq):
alias status_codes="curl --silent https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status | htmlq --text 'dt a code'"
Prints something like this: 100 Continue
101 Switching Protocols
102 Processing
103 Early Hints
200 OK
201 Created
202 Accepted
203 Non-Authoritative Information
204 No Content
205 Reset Content
206 Partial Content
...
To get specific groups, I do something like this: status_codes | grep ^2
Replacing 2 with whatever group you want, like 4 for 4xx codes for example
