MCP Web Search & Scrape in Cursor

Add web scraping and search to Cursor in 2 minutes
1 min read

Add Firecrawl's keyless Search, Scrape, and Parse tools to Cursor through the hosted MCP server.

Quick setup#

Open Cursor Settings, select MCP, and add:

Restart Cursor and confirm that firecrawl_search, firecrawl_scrape, and firecrawl_parse are available.

Keyless access has limits shared by users on the same public IP. Sign in from an interactive client with For Humans, or add an API key for unattended use.

Try it#

Troubleshooting#

  • Server does not connect: confirm the URL is exactly https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp and inspect Cursor's MCP status.
  • Crawl or another tool is missing: keyless exposes exactly Search, Scrape, and Parse. Connect with OAuth or an API key for the broader tool surface.
