firecrawl

firecrawl is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from intentic/intentic. It costs 52 tokens per session (965 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A web-research tool that turns pages and websites into clean Markdown text. It can read one page, find a site's URLs, collect multiple pages, or search the web.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scrape a known page, map a website before choosing pages, crawl a site when many pages are needed, or search the web for research.
Why use it?
It avoids manually copying web pages and helps separate the useful page content from navigation and other boilerplate.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

firecrawl scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 45 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Firecrawl (connected)

Key in $FIRECRAWL_API_KEY, base in $FIRECRAWL_API_URL (https://api.firecrawl.dev unless self-hosted). Everything is POST /v2/<endpoint> with a JSON body. Define this helper once per shell: fc <path> '<json>':

fc() { curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $FIRECRAWL_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "$2" "$FIRECRAWL_API_URL/v2/$1"; }

Responses are {success, data} (or {success:false, error}: read error, it says what was wrong). This is metered: one page ≈ one credit. Prefer scrape on a known URL and map to find one; reach for crawl only when whole-site content is genuinely wanted, and always pass limit.

  • Scrape one page: fc scrape '{"url":"<URL>","formats":["markdown"]}' | jq -r '.data.markdown', .data.metadata carries {title, description, sourceURL, statusCode}
  • Keep the page's own boilerplate out (default) or bring it back: "onlyMainContent": false. For a JS-heavy page add "waitFor": 3000
  • Just the links / a summary: "formats":["links"] → .data.links · "formats":["summary"] → .data.summary
  • Structured fields out of a page: fc scrape '{"url":"<URL>","formats":[{"type":"json","prompt":"the price and the release date","schema":{"type":"object","properties":{"price":{"type":"string"},"released":{"type":"string"}}}}]}' | jq '.data.json'
  • Map a site's URLs, cheap, and the right first move on an unfamiliar site: fc map '{"url":"<URL>","limit":100}' | jq -r '.links[] | .url' (add "search":"<TERM>" to order by relevance)
  • Search the web: fc search '{"query":"<QUERY>","limit":5}' | jq -c '.data.web[] | {title, url, description}', add "scrapeOptions":{"formats":["markdown"]} to get each hit's text in the same call, and narrow with "includeDomains":["example.com"], "categories":[{"type":"research"}] or "tbs":"qdr:w" (past week)
  • Several known URLs at once: fc batch/scrape '{"urls":["<URL1>","<URL2>"],"formats":["markdown"]}', async, polls like a crawl below

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
