Firecrawl Build Onboarding
Use this skill for the application-integration path from Firecrawl's onboarding flow.
Install
If you haven't installed yet, one command sets up both the CLI tools (for live web work) and the build skills (for app integration):
npx -y firecrawl-cli@latest init --all --browser
This installs the Firecrawl CLI, the CLI skills, and these build skills
together. It also opens browser auth so the human can sign in or create
an account. No separate npx skills add step is needed.
Use This When
- a project needs
FIRECRAWL_API_KEY - the user wants Firecrawl wired into
.env - you are adding Firecrawl to an app for the first time
- you need to choose the first SDK or REST path
If the human still needs to sign up, sign in, or authorize access in the browser, use the auth flow reference in this skill.
Quick Start
If the user already has an API key, place it in .env:
FIRECRAWL_API_KEY=fc-...
If the project is self-hosted, also set:
FIRECRAWL_API_URL=https://your-firecrawl-instance.example.com
Then decide which integration path applies:
- Fresh project -> choose the target stack, install the SDK,…
