SkillWeb & browsingThis skill gives your AI the ability to scrape web pages, search the web, and browse site content. Once added, your agent can gather information from websites as part of its work. It is built on Firecrawl.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
After adding the skill, ask your agent to scrape a page, run a web search, or browse a site to see it in action. More information is available in the Firecrawl repository at github.com/firecrawl/cli.
Then ask your AI: use the firecrawl map skill
What your AI can do with it
- Scrape the contents of web pages
- Search the web for information
- Browse the content of a website
- Use what it finds on pages when answering your questions
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by firecrawl/cli in skills/firecrawl-map/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Discover URLs on a site. Use --search to find a specific page within a large site.
Prerequisite: map requires authentication (no keyless free tier); without credentials the CLI prompts an interactive login.
Quick start
# Find a specific page on a large site
firecrawl map "<url>" --search "authentication" -o .firecrawl/filtered.txt
# Get all URLs
firecrawl map "<url>" --limit 500 --json -o .firecrawl/urls.json
Run firecrawl map --help for the full option list (sitemap handling, subdomains, etc.).
Done when: the URL list is saved under .firecrawl/ and you have selected the URLs to scrape or crawl next.
Tips
- Map + scrape is a common pattern: use
map --searchto find the right URL, thenscrapeit. - Example:
map https://docs.example.com --search "auth"→ found/docs/api/authentication→scrapethat URL.
