Firecrawl

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

firecrawl_monitor_list

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 URL list, while sitemap, subdomain, query-parameter, and result-limit options control coverage. Returns matching URLs rather than page bodies. Retrieve one page with `firecrawl_scrape`; collect content across multiple pages with `firecrawl_crawl`.

firecrawl_map

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 `filePath` from the server filesystem. Hosted MCP uses two calls: first provide `filePath` to receive upload instructions, upload locally, then call again with the returned `uploadRef`; do not send both fields together. Remote web URLs belong in `firecrawl_scrape`. Set `redactPII` to request redaction of personally identifiable information in the returned content. `zeroDataRetention` requires an eligible authenticated account; omit it for anonymous keyless use. Returns upload instructions for hosted phase one or parsed document content for the final call.

firecrawl_parse

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_research_read_paper

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 can be large; use conservative limits when full-site coverage is unnecessary. Webhooks and interactive scrape actions are unavailable in safe mode. Returns the crawl ID, status, and page data.

firecrawl_crawl

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_run

Retrieve and extract content from one supplied URL through Firecrawl. Use this when the request identifies a page and needs its content or defined fields. It can return markdown, HTML, links, screenshots, branding data, a targeted answer, or JSON matching a supplied schema; JSON is useful when the requested result has defined fields, while markdown preserves readable page content. This tool operates on a known page. For a set of pages use `firecrawl_crawl`, and to discover page URLs use `firecrawl_map` or `firecrawl_search`. Options include JavaScript render delay, cache age, main-content filtering, PII redaction, and lockdown cache-only retrieval. Browser actions may change the live page when interactive actions are enabled. Firecrawl may reuse recently indexed content instead of refetching the page, and the reuse window varies by domain. Set `maxAge: 0` to force a live fetch, or a smaller `maxAge` to bound how stale reused content may be. A successful response does not by itself confirm that the state it describes is still current. Returns the selected content formats and page metadata.

firecrawl_scrape

Search indexed public GitHub issue, pull-request, and README content. Returns ranked matches with repository, URL, snippet, and full matched markdown when available.

firecrawl_research_search_github

For a developer question — code behaviour, a library or framework, an API contract, an error message, or a known bug — search an index built for coding agents. The index covers GitHub issues, merged pull requests, repository READMEs, and curated documentation sites. Set skills to "only" to limit the search to agent-skill files. Returns ranked results with an ID, source type, URL, title, and the matched passages in markdown.

firecrawl_developer_search

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, and date filters constrain results. Several distinct framings of the same question surface different papers than a single query does. Returns ranked papers with canonical IDs, titles, authors, and abstracts.

firecrawl_research_search_papers

Search web, news, or image sources and return ranked results. Operators include quoted phrases, `-term`, `site:host`, `inurl:term`, `intitle:term`, and `related:host`; the set is non-exhaustive. `includeDomains` and `excludeDomains` are mutually exclusive hostname filters; categories limit results to GitHub, research, PDF, or developer sources. For a programming question, add `categories: ["developer"]`. It searches an index of GitHub issues, merged pull requests, repository READMEs, and curated documentation sites, and returns the hits in `data.developer` beside the web results. `categories: ["research"]` restricts these web results to research-affiliated websites and returns page snippets. The `firecrawl_research_*` tools are a separate surface that searches paper abstracts and full text across biomedical (PubMed, bioRxiv, medRxiv) and arXiv literature. `scrapeOptions` can attach extracted page content; pages fetched this way use a fixed reuse window and ignore `maxAge`, so use `firecrawl_scrape` when a live fetch is required. Returns source-type result groups and usage metadata. Authenticated responses can include an `id` for optional search feedback.

firecrawl_search

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. Returns submission status, feedback ID, and accounting fields.

firecrawl_feedback

Records schema-validated quality feedback for a prior `firecrawl_search` UUID `searchId`. A `good` rating requires a valuable source, `partial` a valuable source or at least one `missingContent` entry, and `bad` at least one `missingContent` entry or a query suggestion; caps are 50 `valuableSources` and 20 `missingContent` entries. Eligibility is limited to successful searches within the feedback age window. The record is idempotent per search ID. Eligible first feedback for a search can refund 1 credit; refunds are subject to the team's daily cap. The response reports whether a refund was applied, along with submission and daily-cap status.

firecrawl_search_feedback

Start an asynchronous web research job from a prompt, optional seed URLs, and an optional JSON schema. Use this for a requested synthesis across multiple sources when the task can wait for asynchronous completion. The agent can search, navigate, read pages, and assemble a structured result. This call returns only a job ID, not the research result. Read the job with `firecrawl_agent_status` until it reaches `completed` or `failed`; research commonly takes several minutes. If the job cannot finish within the task's available time, `firecrawl_search` and `firecrawl_scrape` can gather evidence synchronously.

firecrawl_agent

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

firecrawl_interact_stop

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.
