Tools of Firecrawl MCP Server
	Description		Read-only	Idempotent	Open world
`firecrawl_parse` Parse one supported document into markdown, HTML, links, summary, targeted answers, or JSON matching a schema. Supported inputs include common HTML, PDF, Word, RTF, OpenDocument, and spreadsheet files; PDF parsing can be bounded with `pdfOptions.maxPages`. Local MCP reads `filePath` from the server filesystem. Hosted MCP uses two calls: first provide `filePath` to receive upload instructions, upload locally, then call again with the returned `uploadRef`; do not send both fields together. Remote web URLs belong in `firecrawl_scrape`. Set `redactPII` to request redaction of personally identifiable information in the returned content. `zeroDataRetention` requires an eligible authenticated account; omit it for anonymous keyless use. Returns upload instructions for hosted phase one or parsed document content for the final call. Authenticated final responses can include a `data.metadata.scrapeId` for optional parse feedback.

`firecrawl_scrape` Scrape one URL and return its content: markdown by default, or HTML, links, screenshots, branding data, or a targeted answer. Use it when the request identifies a page and needs its content or defined fields: the user gives a URL or names a page or PDF and wants it read or summarized, or wants prices, specs, contact details or a table from it. Use `firecrawl_search` when additional web sources are needed; on an authenticated session, `firecrawl_map` lists a site's URLs and `firecrawl_crawl` collects a set of pages. `url` may omit the scheme (`example.com/page`); it is read as https. Firecrawl may serve recently indexed content; set `maxAge: 0` for a live fetch or a smaller `maxAge` to bound staleness. A successful response does not by itself confirm the page is still current. A named browser profile loads saved session data without saving changes to it. Authenticated responses can include a `metadata.scrapeId` for optional scrape feedback. On an authenticated session, `firecrawl_search` and `firecrawl_find_tools` can discover providers for the same fields across several pages; a matching provider returns typed records in one call. With `alexandria` in place of `url`, the tool runs catalogued provider capabilities instead of fetching a page. Some providers require accepted terms; when a response reports a terms requirement, direct the user to the Firecrawl dashboard URL in that response.

`firecrawl_search` Use this when you need current or specific information from the web: recent events, latest releases and versions, prices, people and companies, statistics, or any fact that may have changed since your training data or that you are not sure of. Returns ranked results with query-relevant highlights; each web result is a title, URL, and description. Operators include quoted phrases, `-term`, `site:host`, `inurl:term`, `intitle:term`, and `related:host`; the set is non-exhaustive. `includeDomains` and `excludeDomains` are mutually exclusive hostname filters; categories limit result types to `research`, `pdf`, `developer`, or `gov`. For a programming question, add `categories: ["developer"]`. It searches an index of public repositories, GitHub issues, merged pull requests, repository READMEs, and code documentation, and returns the results in `data.web` with `category: "developer"`. For a legal or regulatory question, `categories: ["gov"]` returns results in `data.web` with `category: "gov"` and cannot be combined with other categories; authenticated sessions also have `firecrawl_gov_search` as the dedicated tool. Verify gov results' issuer, jurisdiction, status, and version before citing current law. Authenticated search combines web results, semantic tool summaries and domain matches. Use sources: ["alexandria"] for semantic tools only. Authenticated searches always add alexandria to the sources, so sources: ["web"] also returns providers; domainTools: false turns off website-matched tools only. On an authenticated session, tool matches describe available structured-data capabilities, not executed data. toolDetail: "compact" (default) returns only provider, capability and description; "summary" adds metadata; "full" includes their input and output contracts. alexandria_library_read runs a selected capability; alexandria_library_search explores the whole library and reads full contracts. Returns result groups in `data` and an operation `id`.
