firecrawl/firecrawl-mcp-server

What it does

Firecrawl MCP server is an official Model Context Protocol server that provides advanced web scraping and data extraction capabilities. It enables live browser interaction through the firecrawl_interact tool, allowing users to navigate websites, click elements, type text, and scroll before extracting data. This is particularly useful for JavaScript-heavy websites and authentication-gated content that traditional scraping methods cannot handle.

Key features

• Live browser interaction (navigate, click, type, scroll)
• Web scraping and crawling functionality
• Website mapping and search capabilities
• Data extraction from complex web pages
• Support for JavaScript-heavy and authentication-gated sites
• MCP server integration with Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI platforms

How to set up

As an MCP server, installation involves configuring the server connection in your AI platform's MCP settings. Add the firecrawl/firecrawl-mcp-server endpoint to your configuration, authenticate with your Firecrawl API credentials, and the server will be available as a tool within your AI assistant. Consult the official repository documentation for platform-specific setup instructions for Claude, ChatGPT, or other supported platforms.
