Original skill document

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

Firecrawl Knowledge Ingest

Use this when a docs portal needs browser navigation, auth, pagination, or JS rendering.

Onboarding Interview

Infer the portal URL, output format, auth needs, and page limit from context. If the portal is clear, proceed immediately.

Ask at most 1-3 concise questions only if blocked, such as the portal URL, whether authentication is required, or the desired output format.

Firecrawl Collection Plan

Use Firecrawl browser to:

  • open the portal and inspect navigation
  • identify sections, categories, sidebar links, and article URLs
  • follow sidebar navigation, next links, pagination, load-more controls, or search
  • scrape article content as markdown
  • extract metadata such as title, section, last updated date, author, and tags

Try Firecrawl map as a supplement for public URLs, but use browser navigation for auth-gated or JS-heavy content.
