What it does

Firecrawl Core Workflow A is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Implement current Firecrawl v2 scrape and crawl flows with bounded discovery, pagination, content validation, and durable receipts. Use when collecting one page or a governed site corpus. Trigger with "Firecrawl scrape", "crawl this site", or "build a Firecrawl corpus".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/official-docs.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code; Firecrawl Cloud work requires network access

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Web scraping. It works with Firecrawl. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Collecting one page
  • A governed site corpus
  • With Firecrawl scrape
  • Crawl this site

Example prompts

  • “Firecrawl scrape”
  • “crawl this site”
  • “build a Firecrawl corpus”
  • “/firecrawl-core-workflow-a”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in FIRECRAWL_API_KEY
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code; Firecrawl Cloud work requires network access
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Confirm the target is authorized, normalize its origin, and document allowed paths, excluded paths, subdomain/external-link policy…
  2. Create the client from FIRECRAWL_API_KEY for authenticated work. Keep the key in a secret manager and never place it in source, arguments…
  3. For one page, call scrape with only the required formats and options. Validate the returned document, metadata.sourceURL…
  4. For a site, set an explicit crawl limit and path/depth policy. Use crawl when blocking is acceptable or startCrawl when another worker…
  5. Retrieve every required result page. Preserve the next cursor or URL until pagination is complete, and record partial completion…
  6. Deduplicate by canonical source URL and content hash, validate output quality, and write only approved fields to the downstream store.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. 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:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Write
    • Edit

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • FIRECRAWL_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code; Firecrawl Cloud work requires network access

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Firecrawl Core Workflow A loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 522 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~74
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.6k

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.

Firecrawl Scrape and Crawl Workflow

Overview

Use scrape for one URL and crawl for recursive discovery. Keep the authorization basis, scope, cost ceiling, result completeness, and storage decision explicit.

Prerequisites

  • The target repository or integration path and the requested operator outcome.
  • The source authorization, data classification, and environment policy.
  • Current Firecrawl documentation, credentials only when needed, and an owner for approvals.

Current Contract

The current Node client is Firecrawl from the firecrawl package; Python uses Firecrawl from firecrawl-py. Use scrape for a single URL, crawl as the waiter, startCrawl for asynchronous submission, getCrawlStatus for status and pagination, and cancelCrawl for cancellation. REST uses the /v2 routes and Bearer authentication.

Authentication

For authenticated Cloud operations, inject FIRECRAWL_API_KEY from an approved secret manager. REST requests use Authorization: Bearer with the key. Never print, commit, transmit, or place a key in a URL. Keyless access is suitable only where the current documentation explicitly allows it and the workload accepts its limits; production workflows should make identity and team ownership explicit.

Instructions

  1. Confirm the target is authorized, normalize its origin, and document allowed paths, excluded paths, subdomain/external-link policy, desired formats, and freshness.
  2. Create the client from FIRECRAWL_API_KEY for authenticated work. Keep the key in a secret manager and never place it in source, arguments, logs, or generated examples.
  3. For one page, call scrape with only the required formats and options. Validate the returned document, metadata.sourceURL, metadata.statusCode, and required content fields.
  4. For a site, set an explicit crawl limit and path/depth policy. Use crawl when blocking is acceptable or startCrawl when another worker owns status and cancellation.
  5. Retrieve every required result page. Preserve the next cursor or URL until pagination is complete, and record partial completion separately from terminal success.
  6. Deduplicate by canonical source URL and content hash, validate output quality, and write only approved fields to the downstream store.
  7. Emit counts, creditsUsed when returned, cache state, failures, policy version, and rollback/cancellation outcome without logging page bodies.

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect code, configuration, tests, and evidence. Use Write/Edit only for approved implementation or documentation changes. Do not call Firecrawl, rotate keys, change account settings, scrape a target, or deploy merely because this skill was invoked.

Approval Boundaries

Require approval before authenticated-page scraping, external-link traversal, increasing scope or limit, enabling sensitive headers/actions, or retaining raw HTML, screenshots, or personal data.

Output

Return normalized scope, endpoint and SDK method, job ID where applicable, pagination completion, accepted/rejected counts, content-quality checks, retention decision, and a redacted run receipt.

Error Handling

  • Captured origin error page: quarantine by metadata.statusCode and do not index it as successful content.
  • Async job exceeds its deadline: cancel when safe, persist the cursor and receipt, and require an explicit resume decision.
  • Output fails schema or quality checks: retain only permitted evidence and route the page to review.

Examples

  • "Scrape this release note" selects one v2 scrape and validates the returned document.
  • "Crawl our docs" requires path rules, an explicit limit, pagination ownership, and a cancellation plan.

Resources

Read official Firecrawl evidence before relying on an endpoint, SDK method, plan limit, price, retention option, or self-hosted release.
