Web search and scraping via Firecrawl API. An agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills.

  • You need to search the web
  • SKILL.md covers Prerequisites, Quick Start, API Reference and Scripts
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; needs FIRECRAWL_API_KEY
  • Scrape websites (including JS-heavy pages)

What it does

Firecrawl is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Web search and scraping via Firecrawl API. Use when you need to search the web, scrape websites (including JS-heavy pages), crawl entire sites, or extract structured data from web pages. Requires FIRECRAWLAPIKEY environment variable.

Its SKILL.md is about 250 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/api.md`, `scripts/crawl.py` and `scripts/scrape.py`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Web scraping and Web search. It works with Firecrawl. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.

When your agent uses it

  • You need to search the web
  • Scrape websites (including JS-heavy pages)
  • Crawl entire sites
  • Extract structured data from web pages

Example prompts

  • “/firecrawl”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in FIRECRAWL_API_KEY

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b80cde2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    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.

Context cost

Firecrawl loads about 250 tokens when it runs, and up to ~568 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 58 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~61
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~250
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~568

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
