Firecrawl agent skills for Claude Code, Cursor and RevampKey

3 ready-made playbooks that teach an AI agent how to do real Firecrawl work: which tools to call, what to check first, and when to stop and ask you.

Download RevampKey, free I have it: connect Firecrawl

Connect Firecrawl once and all 3 skills install themselves and stay up to date. Mac, Windows and Linux.

All 3 Firecrawl skills

Each skill is one job. You ask in plain words and the agent loads the skill that matches, then follows its steps.

Use Firecrawl well and safely with AI

Shows which Firecrawl tool fits each task, keeps result volume small, and reports errors and blocked pages honestly, asking before any change.

Use it when

You want to know whether to search, scrape or look up papers
A Firecrawl call failed or returned almost nothing
You are starting a Firecrawl task and want the account and scope confirmed first

Tools it uses

firecrawl_search
firecrawl_scrape
firecrawl_developer_search
firecrawl_research_search_papers
firecrawl_research_inspect_paper
firecrawl_research_read_paper
firecrawl_research_related_papers
firecrawl_find_tools

Example

Find recent papers on retrieval-augmented generation and summarise the top three, but check first which Firecrawl tool fits.

I'll start with the paper search to find candidates, then inspect the abstracts of the three most relevant before reading any in full. I'm not changing anything in your account. I'll report any paper I could not retrieve.

Review academic papers with Firecrawl

Searches for papers on a topic, reads a chosen paper's methods and results, traces related work, and writes a short summary of its claims, evidence strength and open gaps. It reads and writes in the conversation only and never saves or shares anything without your yes.

Use it when

You need papers on a narrow research question and want the most relevant ones filtered
You want the claims, methods and evidence of one paper checked against its full text
You are mapping what a field agrees on, where papers conflict, and what is still untested

Tools it uses

firecrawl_research_search_papers
firecrawl_research_read_paper
firecrawl_research_inspect_paper
firecrawl_research_related_papers

Example

Find recent papers on retrieval-augmented generation for medical question answering, read the most relevant one, and tell me how strong its evidence is.

I found 14 papers and kept 5 after filtering for relevance and venue. The chosen paper (2024, peer-reviewed) evaluates on 3 clinical QA datasets with 1,200 questions in total and reports a 6-point accuracy gain over its strongest baseline. Evidence strength is moderate: the gain holds on two datasets but the third shows no difference, and the authors do not report variance across runs.

Read-only2 Firecrawl tools

Answer questions from live web pages with cited sources

Searches the web, reads the most relevant pages, and answers with a citation for every claim, flagging conflicts and stale sources. It reads sources before citing them and does not change anything.

Use it when

You need a sourced answer to a question about a current topic
You want to compare what several websites say about the same fact
You need to know whether the web agrees on a figure, and what the disagreement is

Tools it uses

firecrawl_search
firecrawl_scrape

Example

What is the current federal minimum wage in the US, and are there any sources that disagree?

The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour, unchanged since 2009 [source: dol.gov, checked today]. Two of the three pages I read agree; a state-level guide listed a higher figure, but it applies only to its own state, so the federal number stands. I read the Department of Labor page directly and found no newer figure. I could not verify whether any proposal to change it has passed.

How Firecrawl skills work

Connect Firecrawl
The Firecrawl MCP server gives the agent its tools.
Ask in plain words
“Find recent papers on retrieval-augmented generation for medical question answering, read the most relevant one, and tell me how strong its evidence is.” Each SKILL.md says when it applies, so only the one that fits is loaded.
Approve any change
The agent calls the tools in order, checks its work, and shows you any change before it makes it.

How to install Firecrawl skills

In RevampKey the skills install themselves when you connect Firecrawl. In other tools each skill is one folder with a SKILL.md file, and you also need the Firecrawl MCP server connected there.

Firecrawl skills FAQ

What is a Firecrawl agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each Firecrawl skill describes one job, which Firecrawl tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

Do the Firecrawl skills change anything on their own?

3 of the 3 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in Firecrawl.

Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect Firecrawl; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

Do I need the Firecrawl MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the Firecrawl MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The Firecrawl MCP setup guide covers every client.
