š Overview
FireScrape MCP is a Model Context Protocol server designed to bridge the gap between AI models (Claude, Cursor, etc.) and the real world. It provides robust tools for:
- Deep Research: Multi-step autonomous investigation and synthesis.
- Web Access: Anti-blocking search and intelligent markdown scraping.
- Local Context: File system access for project-aware coding.
š¦ Installation & Usage
Run instantly without global installation using npx:
npx -y @yutugyutugyutug/firescrape-mcp
⨠Key Features (v1.1.2)
- š§
deep_research: Conducts autonomous, multi-step research on complex topics, filtering noise and synthesizing reports. - š
search_web: High-availability web search with fallback providers (DuckDuckGo + Brave) to ensure you always get results. - š
scrape_webpage: Converts messy HTML into clean, token-efficient Markdown, stripping ads and irrelevant boilerplate. - š
discover_tools: a "Meta-Tool" to find and install other MCP servers from GitHub and Smithery. - š Local Integration: Seamlessly
list_filesandread_fileto give your AI context about your local project.
š¤ AI Agent Rules
Want your AI to be smarter? We have created a standardized rule set to teach your AI agents (Cursor, Windsurf, Cline) how to effectively use these tools to verify facts and avoid hallucinations.
