Documentation
Full READMEFirecrawl for Claude
Firecrawl is the context API for AI agents. This plugin connects Claude to Firecrawl's hosted search tools to search the web, read the pages your searches find, look up Alexandria data providers for structured data, and research developer documentation, government publications, and scientific papers.
This plugin includes thirteen skills: three core search and research skills, plus workflows for brand assets, business contacts, website design, professional enrichment, lead discovery, fantasy sports, deep research, job openings, developer documentation, and SEO audits. It connects to Firecrawl's hosted MCP server, configured in .mcp.json.
Install
In Claude.ai or Cowork, upload the plugin ZIP through Customize > Plugins > Add > Upload plugin, then connect Firecrawl from the plugin's Connectors tab. Installing a plugin and connecting its tools are separate steps.
In Claude Code, open /plugin, search for firecrawl, and install it. The official marketplace controls which release is available there.
You can also add this repository directly as a marketplace:
/plugin marketplace add firecrawl/firecrawl-claude-plugin
/plugin install firecrawl@firecrawlChoose one installation of Firecrawl. If switching from the official marketplace to this repository, disable the previous Firecrawl plugin first. After an update, run /reload-plugins or start a new session, then use /mcp to complete the account connection.
Upgrading from 1.x
Version 2.0.0 connects to Firecrawl's hosted MCP server instead of the Firecrawl CLI. You no longer need to install or authenticate the CLI for this plugin; connect your account with /mcp instead.
The CLI skills (map, crawl, interact, monitor, agent, parse, download and the other CLI commands) are no longer part of this plugin. To keep using them, install them from the CLI's own skill distribution, either with:
