What it does
Firecrawl Download is an agent skill from firecrawl/skills. Save a site or section as local files (markdown, screenshots). Use for "download the site", offline docs, or a local copy for reference.
Its SKILL.md is about 510 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Web scraping. It works with Firecrawl. The repository describes itself as: Firecrawl agent skills for Claude Code, Codex and Cursor: web search, scraping, crawling and browser interaction. Firecrawl is the most complete web data API for AI agents. The licence is ISC.
When your agent uses it
- Download the site
- A local copy for reference
Example prompts
- “download the site”
- “/firecrawl-download”
Requirements
- Node.js
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(firecrawl *), Bash(npx firecrawl-cli *)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5348e9e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
Bash(firecrawl *)Bash(npx firecrawl-cli *)
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Firecrawl Download loads about 507 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 141 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
The full file from firecrawl/skills at commit 5348e9e, republished under its ISC licence (© firecrawl). 141 words, ~507 tokens.

firecrawl download (invoked as firecrawl x download)
Experimental.
downloadis available under thefirecrawl xcommand group.
Prerequisite: download requires authentication (no keyless free tier); without credentials the CLI prompts an interactive login.
Maps the site origin first to discover pages, then scrapes each one into nested directories under .firecrawl/. Use --include-paths to scope a non-root URL to one section. Automated runs always pass -y — without it the command opens an interactive wizard that blocks on a prompt.
Quick start
# With screenshots
firecrawl x download https://docs.example.com --screenshot --limit 20 -y
# Multiple formats (each saved as its own file per page)
firecrawl x download https://docs.example.com --format markdown,links --screenshot --limit 20 -y
# Creates per page: index.md + links.txt + screenshot.png
# Filter to specific sections
firecrawl x download https://docs.example.com --include-paths "/features,/sdks" -y
# Skip translations
firecrawl x download https://docs.example.com --exclude-paths "/zh,/ja,/fr,/es,/pt-BR" -yRun firecrawl x download --help for the full option list, including which scrape options download supports.
Done when: the command exits successfully and the expected files exist under .firecrawl/.
