## About

Firecrawl's official MCP server lets agents scrape pages to markdown or structured data, search the web, map and crawl sites, interact with pages, parse documents and monitor changes. A hosted server supports keyless, OAuth or API-key access, and a local npx version is available.

## Install

1. **Connect it in ChatGPT** Turn on Developer mode in ChatGPT (Settings → Security and login), open Plugins, select + and paste https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp as the MCP server URL. Add it to a chat from the composer's tools menu.

2. **Or add it to Codex or the API**

   Codex CLI:

   ```bash
   codex mcp add firecrawl --url https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp --bearer-token-env-var FIRECRAWL_API_KEY

   ```toml
   [mcp_servers.firecrawl]
