What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Ad-hoc web scraping, site mapping, and full-site crawling via Firecrawl MCP. Returns raw HTML, parsed metadata (og:*, twitter:*, JSON-LD, canonical, robots), JS-rendered DOM, and screenshots that WebFetch cannot. Distinct from the DataForSEO skills (which give keyword/traffic/SERP data) and from WebFetch (which gives markdown prose only). Use when the user says "scrape this page", "crawl this site", "map this site", "find all pages on", "get the OG tags", "get the JSON-LD", "render this JS-heavy page", or any task where raw `<head>` metadata, structured-data scripts, or post-JS DOM are the actual deliverable. Also invoked as a sub-step from other skills that need raw HTML.

Firecrawl Orchestrator

A direct interface to Firecrawl MCP for tasks that fall outside the data-driven DataForSEO skills. Use when:

  • You need raw HTML, <head> metadata, JSON-LD, or post-JS DOM that WebFetch's markdown conversion strips.
  • You need a list of all URLs on a domain without pulling each one.
  • You need to crawl a site and audit each page's metadata.
  • You need to search within a known domain.
  • A higher-level skill (seo-page, seo-schema, seo-content-audit, etc.) called you as a sub-step.

Prerequisites

  • Required: the firecrawl-mcp MCP server. If mcp__firecrawl-mcp__firecrawl_scrape is unavailable, abort with the install command — bash extensions/firecrawl/install.sh from this plugin repo, plus the firecrawl.dev signup URL (free tier 500 credits/month). Don't attempt fallbacks; this skill exists for the cases WebFetch can't cover.
  • User provides: a target URL or domain, plus optionally a mode (scrape / map / crawl / search). If mode unspecified, infer from input shape (single URL → scrape, single domain → map).

Process

  1. Preflight. Confirm firecrawl-mcp is connected. If not, surface the install command and stop.
  2. Mode selection. Resolve user intent into one of:
    • scrape — single URL, full data (default if user supplies one URL).
    • map — single domain, list of URLs only (cheap reconnaissance).
    • crawl — single domain, fetch each discovered page (expensive; require explicit confirm).
    • search — query within a domain.
  3. Cost estimation + confirmation.
    • scrape (1 credit), map (~0.5 credit per discovered URL — estimate using a map first if scope unclear), crawl (1 credit per page crawled), search (1 credit per result returned).
    • For crawl and for map of >50 expected URLs, surface the estimate and require explicit go-ahead before calling.
    • Always read remaining credits implicitly via Firecrawl's response metadata (creditsUsed / creditsRemaining in metadata).
  4. Execute. Call the matching mcp__firecrawl-mcp__firecrawl_* tool.
    • scrape: pass formats: ["markdown", "html"] by default (markdown for prose, html for <head> + JSON-LD). Add formats: ["screenshot"] only if the deliverable visibly uses one. SPAs: pass waitFor: 2000 (or a CSS selector) so the JS-rendered DOM is captured. Default onlyMainContent: true to drop nav/footer noise — override only on explicit request.
    • map: default limit: 500 (hard cap). Pass excludePaths: ["/admin/*", "/api/*", "/wp-admin/*", "/feed/*"] as a sane default.
    • crawl: default limit: 50 (default cap), hard cap limit: 200. Always pass excludePaths to prune. Poll firecrawl_check_crawl_status if the job returns asynchronously.
    • search: default limit: 20.
  5. Parse + structure output. Don't dump the raw API response. Per-mode:
    • scrape → RAW.md (markdown body), META.md (og / twitter / canonical / robots / headers + parsed JSON-LD @type list with hashes), links.csv, optional screenshot.png.
    • map → URLS.md with pattern-grouped list (e.g., /blog/* — 128 (37%), /products/* — 84 (24%)), plus urls.csv.
    • crawl → folder per page under pages/{slugified-url}/ with RAW.md + META.md, plus a top-level INDEX.md summarising every page (URL, status, key signals).
    • search → MATCHES.md with hit excerpts + URLs ranked by relevance.
  6. Synthesise FIRECRAWL.md at the root: target, mode, credits used, key findings (5 bullets max), open loops, recommended next skill.

## Summary

{One-paragraph what-came-back. Example: "Scraped https://example.com/article. og:title and og:image present, JSON-LD Article schema with author + datePublished. 12 outbound links. Page is server-rendered (no JS-render divergence). Robots: index,follow."}

## Key findings

1. {Finding anchored in concrete data}
2. ...
5. ...

## Open loops

- {What this run did NOT answer}
- ...

## Recommended next step

{One of: `seo-page` (when a single URL was scraped and now wants performance analysis) | `seo-schema` (when JSON-LD audit needs follow-up generation) | `seo-technical-audit` (when crawl revealed broken pages) | `seo-content-audit` (when crawl produced a corpus to audit) | `seo-drift baseline` (when the user wants to track this URL over time) | "this completes the user's ask".}

## Handoff payload

- **Produced by:** seo-firecrawl
- **Target:** {url or domain}
- **Mode:** {scrape | map | crawl | search}
- **Credits used:** {n}
- **Key findings:** {5 bullets — e.g., "twitter:card present (summary_large_image)", "JSON-LD types: Article + Organization + BreadcrumbList", "robots: index,follow", "canonical self-referencing", "404s: 0 of 50 pages crawled"}
- **Open loops:** {what this didn't answer}
- **Recommended next skill:** {seo-page | seo-schema | seo-technical-audit | seo-content-audit | …} — {one-line why}

Tips

  • Free tier 500 cr/month. map is 0.5 cr/URL; scrape is 1 cr each; crawl 1 cr/page. Surface cost up front; warn when a single run will eat >100 credits.
  • Default onlyMainContent: true for scrape to drop nav/footer noise. Override only if the user explicitly asks for full-page DOM.
  • Use waitFor (CSS selector or ms) for SPAs that lazy-load content. 2000ms is a sensible default; selectors are more reliable than time waits.
  • firecrawl_map before firecrawl_crawl when crawl scope is unclear — discover first, decide what to crawl, then crawl. Saves credits.
  • includePaths / excludePaths dramatically cut crawl cost. Always pass excludePaths: ["/admin/*", "/api/*", "/wp-admin/*", "/feed/*"] as a default.
  • Don't request formats: ["screenshot"] unless the deliverable visibly uses it. It doubles per-page cost.
  • Don't use firecrawl_extract or firecrawl_deep_research. Both overlap with our own LLM analysis; firecrawl_extract has opaque pricing on the free tier; both are explicitly out of scope for seo-skills.
  • Cloudflare / anti-bot: some sites (especially e-commerce, banking) block Firecrawl's scraper. Surface the error cleanly; defeating WAFs is not a goal of this skill.
  • Sub-step usage. When invoked from another skill (seo-page, seo-schema, etc.), drop the FIRECRAWL.md synthesis — the caller wants the raw META.md / RAW.md. Skip mode-2's URLS.md summary too if the caller wants the raw urls.csv.
  • This is the entry point when you need raw HTML and don't have a more specific skill in mind. If you do — seo-page for keyword/traffic verdicts on one URL, seo-schema for JSON-LD work, seo-technical-audit for crawl-wide issues — use those instead. They orchestrate Firecrawl plus DataForSEO data automatically.

Works well with

  • Predecessors: none (entry point) or invoked as a sub-step from another skill.
  • Successors:
    • seo-page — when a single URL was scraped and now wants keyword/traffic verdicts.
    • seo-schema — when JSON-LD audit produced gaps that need generation.
    • seo-technical-audit — when a crawl revealed broken pages or noindex issues at scale.
    • seo-content-audit — when a crawl produced a corpus to E-E-A-T-audit.
    • seo-drift baseline — when the user wants to track this URL or domain over time.
