What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • firecrawl_scrape

    Scrape one URL and return its content: markdown by default, or HTML, links, screenshots, branding data, a targeted answer, or JSON matching a supplied schema. Use it when the request identifies a page and needs its content or defined fields: the user gives a URL or names a page o

  • firecrawl_map

    Enumerate URLs indexed under one website through Firecrawl without fetching each page's content. Use this when the request asks for a site's URL inventory, when several relevant pages must be located, or when the desired page URL is unknown. An optional `search` term narrows the

  • firecrawl_search

    Search web, news, or image sources and return ranked results with query-relevant highlights. Use it for current information, or to list businesses, people, products, jobs or events with websites, prices or contacts. Each web result is a title, URL, and description; use `firecrawl

  • firecrawl_find_tools

    Browse Alexandria data providers and workflows or read a selected contract. Alexandria covers companies, people, jobs, finance and filings, public records and government spending, real estate, places and restaurants, retail and prices, package registries and developer data, news,

  • firecrawl_search_feedback

    Records schema-validated quality feedback for a prior `firecrawl_search` UUID `searchId`. A `good` rating requires a valuable result or a valuable source, `partial` either of those or at least one `missingContent` entry, and `bad` at least one `missingContent` entry or a query su

  • firecrawl_feedback

    Submit concise quality feedback for a completed search, scrape, parse, or map job. Provide the endpoint, job ID, rating, and relevant issue codes or small contextual fields; omit large page contents and raw outputs. For an Alexandria session, set endpoint to `alexandria`, omit jo

  • firecrawl_crawl

    Start a multi-page crawl at a website URL, poll it to a terminal state, and return the final status and collected data. Scope can be bounded with include/exclude paths, depth, page limit, subdomain/external-link controls, sitemap handling, delay, and scrape options. Crawl results

  • firecrawl_check_crawl_status

    Retrieve the current status, progress, and available results for an existing crawl ID. This only reads Firecrawl job state and does not start or modify the crawl.

  • firecrawl_agent

    Run web research that returns structured data when the URLs are not known or the answer spans several sites. Describe the fields you need in `prompt`, optionally pass a JSON `schema` and seed `urls`, and the research agent searches, navigates, reads pages, and returns JSON assemb

  • firecrawl_agent_status

    Retrieve progress or final results for a `firecrawl_agent` job ID. A `processing` response is non-terminal and does not contain the final research result. Check again after 15–30 seconds until the status is `completed` or `failed`; a typical research run takes one to three minute

  • firecrawl_interact

    Open or reuse a live browser session to navigate a page, click controls, fill and submit forms, or run browser code. Provide either `url` or `scrapeId`, and either a natural-language `prompt` or executable `code`; code can run as Bash, Python, or Node with a bounded timeout. The

  • firecrawl_interact_stop

    Stop the live interact session associated with a `scrapeId` and release its resources. Returns a success confirmation.

  • firecrawl_parse

    Parse one supported document into markdown, HTML, links, summary, targeted answers, or JSON matching a schema. Supported inputs include common HTML, PDF, Word, RTF, OpenDocument, and spreadsheet files; PDF parsing can be bounded with `pdfOptions.maxPages`. Local MCP reads `filePa

  • firecrawl_monitor_create

    Create a recurring scrape, crawl, or search monitor that compares each check with its retained predecessor. The simple form accepts `page`/`pages` or `queries` plus a plain-language `goal`; the advanced `body` form controls targets, schedule, change-tracking formats, judging, ret

  • firecrawl_monitor_list

    List monitors for the authenticated account with optional pagination controls. Returns one page of monitor records and pagination metadata.

  • firecrawl_monitor_get

    Retrieve one monitor by ID, including its configuration and current state. This does not run or modify the monitor.

  • firecrawl_monitor_update

    Patch an existing monitor by ID. The body can change its name, active/paused status, schedule, targets, goal, judging, webhook, notifications, or retention; these changes affect future scheduled checks. Returns the updated monitor.

  • firecrawl_monitor_delete

    Permanently delete a monitor by ID and stop its future schedule. This operation cannot be undone and returns deletion status.

  • firecrawl_monitor_run

    Queue an immediate check for a monitor outside its normal schedule. This starts network work for the monitor's configured targets and returns the queued check.

  • firecrawl_monitor_checks

    List historical checks for a monitor, optionally filtered by status and bounded by a result limit. Returns one page of check summaries and pagination metadata.

  • firecrawl_monitor_check

    Retrieve one monitor check and its page-level results, optionally filtered by page status. Pages report `same`, `new`, `changed`, `removed`, or `error`; configured goal judging can add a meaningful-change decision. Markdown tracking returns a unified text diff, JSON tracking retu

  • firecrawl_research_search_papers

    Search paper metadata and abstracts with a natural-language query across the indexed corpus, which spans biomedical, life-science, and clinical literature (PubMed, bioRxiv, medRxiv) alongside arXiv and other scientific sources. Optional author, category, date, and sort options co

  • firecrawl_research_inspect_paper

    Retrieve canonical metadata for one paper ID, such as an arXiv, PMC, PMID, or DOI identifier. Returns the title, abstract, authors, categories, source IDs, and dates as markdown.

  • firecrawl_research_related_papers

    Find citation-graph candidates from one to ten `seed_ids`; the first ID is the primary seed and later IDs are anchors. `mode` defaults to `similar` (co-citation/bibliographic coupling); `citers` returns papers citing a seed and `references` papers cited by a seed. `intent` ranks

  • firecrawl_research_read_paper

    Retrieve in-body passages from one paper that are relevant to a specific question. Full text is available only for indexed papers; `k` controls the number of passages. Returns matching passages or a notice when full text is unavailable.

  • firecrawl_developer_search

    Search an index of public repositories, GitHub issues, merged pull requests, repository READMEs, and code documentation for programming questions that need external documentation or upstream evidence. Returns ranked results with an ID, source type, URL, title, and the matched pas

  • firecrawl_gov_search

    Search US federal, state, and local statutes, regulations, codes, court opinions, and other government publications for legal or regulatory questions that need primary text. Clarify a missing jurisdiction or ambiguous as-of date before identifying the governing rule. Optional fil

  • firecrawl_credit_usage

    Get the authenticated Firecrawl team's current credit balance or its credit usage over the last 90 days. Use the current view to answer how many credits remain or to check billing-period boundaries. Use the historical view to answer what credits were spent on and when. The curren

  • firecrawl_usage_dashboard

    Open the Firecrawl sidebar to browse Alexandria providers, attach tool context to a conversation, and view account credits and monthly usage. Requires a connected Firecrawl account. Use firecrawl_credit_usage for data-only reporting.

  • firecrawl_recommended_providers

    List data providers recommended for the connected team from its own Firecrawl activity in the last 30 days, each with the reason it was picked. Used by the Firecrawl sidebar; free, and it executes no provider.

  • firecrawl_provider_directory

    List every Alexandria data provider, or every provider in one category, in a single call; with limit, only the first providers in catalogue order. Used by the Firecrawl sidebar; free, and it executes no provider. Use firecrawl_find_tools to browse or read contracts.

Common questions

Is Firecrawl by Nova (CIVAI) safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 5 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Browser Use, Chrome DevTools MCP, MCP Server Browser
