firecrawl-knowledge-base

Build a knowledge base from web content with Firecrawl.

View source
Original skill document

Rendered from the source repository. Headings, examples, code, tables, links, and referenced images are preserved.

Firecrawl Knowledge Base

Use this to turn URLs or topics into organized LLM-ready content.

Onboarding Interview

Infer the source, goal, depth, and output location from context. If the source and goal are clear, proceed immediately.

Ask at most 1-3 concise questions only if blocked, such as the source URL/topic, whether the output is reference/RAG/training/docs, or training format if training is requested.

Firecrawl Collection Plan

Use Firecrawl map for documentation sites, search for topic-based corpora, scrape pages into markdown, and preserve code examples and tables.

For files, follow the Firecrawl download-style convention:

text
.firecrawl/
  <hostname>/
    <path>/
      index.md

Parallel Work

If appropriate, use sub-agents or equivalent parallel task runners:

  • one docs section per researcher
  • official docs, tutorials, community discussions, and references by source type
  • source scraping vs chunk generation vs manifest generation

Output Modes

  • Reference: markdown files, index.md, and sources.json.
  • RAG: markdown files plus chunk files and manifest.json.
  • Training: scraped source files plus training-data.jsonl and training-metadata.json.
  • Docs mirror: complete markdown mirror with a table of contents.

Final Deliverable

Quality Bar

  • Preserve code examples and formatting.
  • Remove boilerplate navigation where possible.
  • Include source URLs in frontmatter or metadata.

firecrawl-deep-research

Produce an intensive, cited analytical report: executive summary, multi-angle findings, contrarian views, open questions, and full sources. Use only when the user needs rigorous synthesis of a complex topic (scientific, technical, policy, or market-analytical) that cannot be answered with a short search, and wants a formal written report, not a recommendation list. Do not use for product picks, top-N lists, quick lookups, or routine "find out about X" tasks. If the request does not clearly need
