README (SKILL.md)
Firecrawl Build Search
Use this when the application starts with a query, not a URL.
Use This When
- the user asks a question and the product must discover sources first
- the feature needs current web results
- you want to turn a search query into a shortlist of pages for later scraping
Default Recommendations
- Use
/searchfirst when URL discovery is part of the product behavior. - Keep search and extraction conceptually separate unless scraping search results is clearly required.
- Prefer selective follow-up extraction over broad hydration when cost or latency matters.
Common Product Patterns
- answer generation with cited sources
- company, competitor, or topic discovery
- research workflows that produce a shortlist before deeper extraction
- query-to-URL pipelines for later
/scrapeor/interact
Escalation Rules
- If you already have the URL, use firecrawl-build-scrape.
- If the result page then requires clicks or form interaction, escalate to firecrawl-build-interact.
Implementation Notes
- Treat
/searchas discovery, ranking, and source selection. - Be explicit about whether the product needs snippets, URLs, or full result content.
- Keep the query contract stable so downstream scraping logic stays predictable.
Docs (Source of Truth)

Usage Guidance
Install this only if you want your agent to use Firecrawl for live web search. Do not put secrets, regulated personal data, customer records, or confidential internal project details into search queries unless your Firecrawl or self-hosted deployment is approved for that data and its logging and retention behavior are acceptable.
Capability Tags
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill’s purpose is to help integrate Firecrawl `/search` for query-driven web discovery, ranking, source selection, and optional later extraction; the requested Firecrawl API capability fits that purpose.
Instruction Scope
Activation language covers questions, current web results, and research workflows, but it remains tied to cases where web discovery or query-to-URL behavior is needed.
Install Mechanism
The extracted artifact contains only `SKILL.md`; no install scripts, executable files, package dependencies, or automatic setup actions were found.
Credentials
The skill requires `FIRECRAWL_API_KEY` and optionally `FIRECRAWL_API_URL`, which is proportionate for a Firecrawl integration; the privacy implication that search queries leave the local environment should be treated as user guidance rather than hidden behavior.
Persistence & Privilege
No persistence, background workers, local indexing, credential-store access, privilege escalation, mutation authority, or destructive behavior was found.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install firecrawl-build-search - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/firecrawl-build-search - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
