Firecrawl

Open source web data API for agents: search, scrape, crawl and interact, with an official MCP server

About

The usual way agents get clean web content into context

For MCP, point your client at https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp-oauth and sign in in the browser, or use https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp with an API key. A keyless mode allows Search, Scrape and Parse within daily limits with no account. There are one click connectors for Claude and ChatGPT. For coding agents, npx -y firecrawl-cli@latest init --all --browser installs the CLI and skills. Things to know: credits are shared across endpoints, a basic scrape is 1 credit per page, search is 2 credits per 10 results and JSON extraction adds 4 credits per page.
