Find web sources with query-relevant page excerpts and optional full-page content, and discover workflows, data APIs, and indexes. Use for web research or finding structured records, listings, transcripts, and datasets. Supports semantic tool discovery, domain matching, and progressive catalogue browsing.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# firecrawl search

Search naturally using the user’s actual question. Default search returns web results plus relevant Alexandria tools, with optional web content scraping.

For structured records, filterable listings, transcripts, or datasets, first check `firecrawl search alexandria '<data you need>'` for a suitable workflow or data provider. For a known website, use `firecrawl find-tools <url>`. Inspect a selected contract with `firecrawl list <provider> <capability> --pretty` before executing it through `scrape`; reuse a complete contract already returned by discovery. If no suitable tool exists, continue with web search or Agent. Use ordinary `search` for web research and URL `scrape` for a known page.

## Quick start

```bash
# Basic search
firecrawl search "your query" -o .firecrawl/result.json --json

# Search and scrape full page content from results
firecrawl search "your query" --scrape -o .firecrawl/scraped.json --json

# News from the past day
firecrawl search "your query" --sources news --tbs qdr:d -o .firecrawl/news.json --json
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add firecrawl/skills/firecrawl-search@sha256:51955e92d17cdc2a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.dc4f014, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
