Extract a URL's content as clean markdown, including JS-rendered pages. Use whenever the user provides a URL and wants its content; prefer over WebFetch.

firecrawl scrape Scrape one or more URLs. Returns clean, LLM optimized markdown. Multiple URLs are scraped concurrently. Quick start Run firecrawl scrape help for the full option list. Done when: you have the scraped content — on stdout, in your o file, or under .firecrawl/ for multi URL scrapes — and have inspected it with bounded reads ( head , grep ) to answer the request. Tips Prefer plain scrape over query . Scrape to a file, then use grep , head , or read the markdown directly — you can search and reason over the full content yourself. Use query only when you want a single targeted answer without saving the page (costs 5 extra credits). Scrape handles static pages and JS rendered SPAs. Escalate to interact when the page needs interaction (clicks, form fills, pagination) or scrape misses content. Multiple URLs are scraped concurrently — check firecrawl status for your concurrency limit. This mode saves markdown only and ignores o ; other requested formats are dropped. If markdown wasn't requested, the whole JSON response is written into the .md file. Single format outputs raw content. Multiple formats (e.g., format markdown,links ) output JSON. Always quote URLs — shell interprets ? and & as special characters. Naming convention: .firecrawl/{site} {path}.md See also [firecrawl search](../firecrawl search/SKILL.md) — find pages when you don't have a URL [firecrawl interact](../firecrawl interact/SKILL.md) — when scrape can't get the content, use interact to click, fill forms, etc. [firecrawl download](../firecrawl download/SKILL.md) — bulk download an entire site to local files [firecrawl build scrape](https://github.com/firecrawl/skills/tree/main/skills/build/firecrawl build scrape) — building scrape into an app instead of running it here
