firecrawl-cli

🔥 Firecrawl CLI

Command-line interface for Firecrawl. Search, scrape, interact, crawl, map, and run agent jobs directly from your terminal.

Installation

npm install -g firecrawl-cli

Or set up everything in one command (install CLI globally, authenticate, and add skills across all detected coding editors):

npx -y firecrawl-cli@1.19.6 init -y --browser

• -y runs setup non-interactively
• --browser opens the browser for Firecrawl authentication automatically
• skills install globally to every detected AI coding agent by default

Setup Skills, Workflows, and MCP

If you are using an AI coding agent like Claude Code, you can also install the skills manually:

firecrawl setup skills
firecrawl setup workflows

These install globally across all detected coding editors by default. Use --agent <agent to scope either command to one editor.

#### Scope setup to a single harness

By default skills route to every detected harness. To install and route to only one harness in a single command:

# One-shot from the install script (non-interactive, no TTY needed)
curl -fsSL https://firecrawl.dev/install.sh | bash -s -- --agent openclaw

# Or, once the CLI is installed
firecrawl init --agent openclaw          # only OpenClaw
firecrawl setup skills --agent openclaw
firecrawl setup workflows --agent openclaw

Any args after bash -s -- are forwarded to firecrawl init, so you can add things like --skip-auth for a skills-only, no-login setup. When you run firecrawl init interactively without --agent, it shows a checkbox of your detected harnesses (all selected by default) so you can pick a subset.

| Harness | --agent value | | ------------ | --------------- | | Claude Code | claude-code | | Codex | codex | | Cursor | cursor | | Windsurf | windsurf | | OpenCode | opencode | | OpenClaw | openclaw | | OpenHands | openhands | | Hermes Agent | hermes-agent |

Agent skills

The init command installs all Firecrawl agent skill segments into AI coding agents (Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, etc.):
