description: Use FlareSolverr through a small CLI when a site requires a browser-backed request to pass Cloudflare or DDoS-GUARD challenges.
---
# FlareSolverr
+ ## Quick Start
+
+ ```sh
+ python3 scripts/flaresolverr --server http://localhost:8191 health
+ ```
+
Use this skill when ordinary HTTP retrieval is blocked by a browser challenge. FlareSolverr must already be running; this skill does not bypass authentication or authorize access to restricted content.
## CLI
```text
python3 flaresolverr/scripts/flaresolverr --server http://localhost:8191 health
python3 flaresolverr/scripts/flaresolverr --server http://localhost:8191 get https://example.com
python3 flaresolverr/scripts/flaresolverr session create
python3 flaresolverr/scripts/flaresolverr session list
python3 flaresolverr/scripts/flaresolverr session destroy SESSION_ID
```
Every command emits JSON. `get` and `post` use FlareSolverr's `/v1` API and preserve the returned status, URL, headers, and response body. Use `--timeout` to bound a request and `--session` when a site needs cookie continuity.
## Setup
Run FlareSolverr separately, commonly with Docker:
```yaml
services:
flaresolverr:
image: ghcr.io/flaresolverr/flaresolverr:latest
ports: ["8191:8191"]
environment:
LOG_LEVEL: info
```
Do not expose the service publicly. Prefer a pinned image tag in production and use the vendor's documentation for browser and platform compatibility.
