Set up Firecrawl MCP

No API key required. Add an API key to unlock more usage.

Run this in your terminal to add Firecrawl as a remote MCP server in Codex.

codex mcp add firecrawl --url https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp

Then run codex mcp list and confirm firecrawl is enabled.

Run this in your terminal to add Firecrawl as a remote MCP server in Claude Code.

claude mcp add --transport http firecrawl https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp

Then run /mcp and confirm firecrawl is connected.

Install the hosted MCP server in one click, or copy the configuration below.

Add to Cursor

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "firecrawl": {
      "url": "https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Open Cursor Settings, select MCP, and confirm firecrawl is connected.

Add this remote server configuration to your global or project config.

opencode.json

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "mcp": {
    "firecrawl": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp",
      "enabled": true
    }
  }
}

Then run opencode mcp list and confirm firecrawl is connected.

Keyless MCP is rate limited and exposes Search, Scrape, and Parse. Add an API key to unlock the full tool surface or higher limits.

Add an API key#

Create a Firecrawl API key, then send it as a bearer token to the same endpoint:

URL: https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcpAuthorization: Bearer <FIRECRAWL_API_KEY>

Verify your connection#

Open your client's MCP status or tool list and confirm that firecrawl is connected. A keyless connection shows firecrawl_search, firecrawl_scrape, and firecrawl_parse; an API-key connection can expose the full tool surface, subject to plan, deployment, and team policy.

Try#

Search the web for the latest Firecrawl release notes and summarize the sources.

If no Firecrawl tools appear, restart or reload the client after saving its MCP configuration.
