firecrawl-build-scrape
Integrate Firecrawl `/scrape` into product code for single-page extraction. Use when an app already has a URL and needs markdown, HTML, links, screenshots, metadata, or structured page output. Prefer this skill over broader crawl patterns when the feature is page-level.

Firecrawl Build Scrape
Use this when the application already has the URL and needs content from one page.
Use This When
- the feature starts from a known URL
- you need page content for retrieval, summarization, enrichment, or monitoring
- you want the default extraction primitive before considering
/interact
Default Recommendations
- Return
markdownunless the feature truly needs another format. - Use
onlyMainContentfor article-like pages where nav and chrome add noise. - Add waits or other rendering options only when the page needs them.
Freshness and Liveness
- Firecrawl reuses recently indexed content, which is what makes repeat reads of the same URL fast. Set
maxAge(milliseconds) to bound how old a reused copy may be, ormaxAge: 0to skip index reuse for a freshness-critical read. - Read
metadata.cacheStateandmetadata.cachedAtto see what you actually got. - A successful scrape reports what the page returned. Whether the thing the page describes is still active is a source-specific judgment your code makes.
- See references/freshness-and-liveness.md for the tradeoff, the metadata, and the decision rule.
Common Product Patterns
- knowledge ingestion from known URLs
- enrichment from a company, product, or docs page
- pricing, changelog, and documentation extraction
- page-level quality checks or monitoring
Escalation Rules
- If you do not have the URL yet, start with firecrawl-build-search.
- If content requires clicks, typing, or multi-step navigation, escalate to firecrawl-build-interact.
Implementation Notes
- Keep the integration narrow: one feature, one URL, one extraction contract.
- Treat
/scrapeas the default primitive for downstream LLM or indexing pipelines. - Request richer formats only when the consumer needs them, such as links, screenshots, or branding data.

Any live-web task via the Firecrawl CLI — including ordinary web research: searching the web, reading or extracting pages, gathering sources, discovering site URLs, bulk extraction, downloading a site, change alerts, or pages needing clicks/login — web only; local files route to firecrawl-parse.

Autonomously navigate websites and extract structured data across pages. Use when the task requires navigation or no suitable ready-made workflow or data provider covers it.
Find a direct path to structured data through ready-made workflows, data APIs, and indexes. Follow the search skill to discover and inspect tools, then the scrape skill to execute them.
Integrate Firecrawl into application code whenever a product, agent, or workflow needs web data inside the app — web search, live search results, page scraping, structured extraction, or browser interaction. Use when building any feature that needs data from the web in code, even if the user does no
Integrate Firecrawl `/interact` into product code for dynamic pages and browser actions after scraping. Use when a feature needs clicks, form fills, pagination, authentication-aware flows, or other multi-step interactions that plain `/scrape` cannot complete.
Get Firecrawl credentials and SDK setup into a project. Use when an application needs `FIRECRAWL_API_KEY`, when an agent should add Firecrawl to `.env`, when the user wants to authenticate Firecrawl for app code, or when choosing the first SDK and docs for a new Firecrawl integration. This skill inc
Integrate Firecrawl `/search` into product code and agent workflows. Use when an app needs discovery before extraction, when the feature starts with a query instead of a URL, or when the system should search the web and optionally hydrate result content.
Extract structured company lists from directories with Firecrawl. Use for scraping YC, Crunchbase, Product Hunt, G2, startup directories, category directories, or custom company databases into JSON, CSV, CRM-ready lists, or research tables.
