Scrape, search, crawl, map, parse, or interact with web pages via the firecrawl-cli binary, writing results to disk instead of streaming them into context. Actions: scrape, batch-scrape, search, crawl, map, parse, interact, agent, monitor, developer, research, doctor, search-feedback, credit-usage. Use when: 'scrape this page', 'crawl this site', 'search the web for X', 'WebFetch is blocked', 'this page needs JS', 'extract the text from this PDF', when WebFetch returns 403 or 429 behind an anti…

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'firecrawl' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'firecrawl' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named firecrawl already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/melodic-software/claude-code-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '677e7988f432dacb5e2d4df2b124f96da8e8f9f3' -- 'plugins/firecrawl/skills/firecrawl' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/firecrawl/skills/firecrawl' ~/.agents/skills/'firecrawl' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'firecrawl' ~/.claude/skills/'firecrawl' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
