Overview

Firecrawl's MCP server gives an agent web scraping, crawling, and search tools that return clean markdown instead of raw HTML — built for feeding real-time web content into an LLM without a separate scraping pipeline.

Use cases

Scrape a product page and return clean markdown for the agent to summarize.
Crawl an entire documentation site to answer questions grounded in its content.
Search the web and retrieve full page content in one tool call.
