Crawl4AI

Verified against crawl4ai VERSION. PEP 723 pins in scripts/*.py and tests/*.py floor at that version.

Overview

Crawl4AI wraps a headless browser (Playwright) plus a markdown-aware content pipeline. Use it when defuddle/curl can't reach the content — JavaScript-rendered pages, login-gated content, infinite scroll, multi-URL concurrency, repeatable schema-based extraction.

This skill exposes both interfaces of the underlying library:

CLI (crwl) — quick, scriptable commands: CLI Guide
Python SDK — full programmatic control: SDK Guide

Invoked with a URL argument

When the user runs /crawl4ai <url> with a single URL and no further qualifier, treat it as the JS-heavy fetch case and default to:

crwl <url> -c "wait_until=networkidle,page_timeout=60000" -o markdown

wait_until=networkidle waits for the network to be quiet for ~500ms post-load — the right default when the user hasn't named a specific element on a JS-rendered page. (Avoid wait_for=css:body: <body> exists at t=0 on every HTML response, so it's satisfied before JS renders content.) Then return the markdown to the agent context. Adjust to wait_for=css:<selector> if the user named a specific element. Skip the default and route to the relevant section below for any task that names extraction, batch / multi-URL, login / session, screenshot / PDF, or URL discovery — those each have their own pipeline. If the URL is clearly static (a docs page, a blog post), route the user to /fetch-web instead per the "When NOT to use" section below.

When NOT to use this skill

Static HTML pages (most documentation sites, blog posts, news articles, tweets) — use /fetch-web or defuddle directly. Static extraction is ~0ms cold start; crawl4ai pays a ~2s browser startup tax.
Local file conversion (.pdf, .docx, .pptx, .epub) — use /markdown-convert.
One-URL agent-context reads (the agent just needs to read this page) — use /fetch-web and let it route to defuddle.
Mutating UI flows (form fills, multi-step clicks, login + navigation) — /browse (gstack's persistent headless Chromium) is built for that.

When stuck

For unknown crwl/SDK flags, scrape failures, or extraction edge cases the references don't cover, see references/escalation.md for the lookup order (qmd solutions → upstream docs → GitHub issues → ask the user) and worked examples.

Quick Start

Installation

pip install crawl4ai
crawl4ai-setup

# Verify installation
crawl4ai-doctor

CLI (Recommended)

# Basic crawling - returns markdown
crwl https://example.com

# Get markdown output
crwl https://example.com -o markdown

# JSON output with cache bypass
crwl https://example.com -o json -v --bypass-cache

# See more examples
crwl --example

Python SDK

import asyncio
from crawl4ai import AsyncWebCrawler

async def main():
    async with AsyncWebCrawler() as crawler:
        result = await crawler.arun("https://example.com")
        print(result.markdown[:500])

asyncio.run(main())

For SDK configuration details: SDK Guide - Configuration.

Core Concepts

Configuration Layers

Both CLI and SDK use the same underlying configuration:

Concept	CLI	SDK
Browser settings	`-B browser.yml` or `-b "param=value"`	`BrowserConfig(...)`
Crawl settings	`-C crawler.yml` or `-c "param=value"`	`CrawlerRunConfig(...)`
Extraction	`-e extract.yml -s schema.json`	`extraction_strategy=...`
Content filter	`-f filter.yml`	`markdown_generator=...`

Key Parameters

Browser Configuration:

headless: Run with/without GUI
viewport_width/height: Browser dimensions
user_agent: Custom user agent
proxy_config: Proxy settings

Crawler Configuration:

page_timeout: Max page load time (ms)
wait_for: CSS selector or JS condition to wait for
cache_mode: bypass, enabled, disabled
js_code: JavaScript to execute
css_selector: Focus on specific element

For complete parameters: CLI Config | SDK Config

Output Content

Every crawl returns:

markdown - Clean, formatted markdown
html - Raw HTML
links - Internal and external links discovered
media - Images, videos, audio found
extracted_content - Structured data (if extraction configured)

Markdown Generation (Primary Use Case)

Crawl4AI excels at generating clean, well-formatted markdown.

CLI

crwl https://docs.example.com -o markdown                              # raw markdown
crwl https://docs.example.com -o markdown-fit                          # filtered (noise removed)
crwl https://docs.example.com -f templates/filter_bm25.yml -o markdown-fit   # BM25-relevance filter
crwl https://docs.example.com -f templates/filter_pruning.yml -o markdown-fit # quality-based filter

Filter templates: templates/filter_bm25.yml (relevance-scored against a query), templates/filter_pruning.yml (no query, prunes low-quality blocks).

Python SDK

from crawl4ai.content_filter_strategy import BM25ContentFilter
from crawl4ai.markdown_generation_strategy import DefaultMarkdownGenerator

bm25_filter = BM25ContentFilter(user_query="machine learning", bm25_threshold=1.0)
md_generator = DefaultMarkdownGenerator(content_filter=bm25_filter)

config = CrawlerRunConfig(markdown_generator=md_generator)
result = await crawler.arun(url, config=config)

print(result.markdown.fit_markdown)  # Filtered
print(result.markdown.raw_markdown)  # Original

For filter selection and config field reference, see Content Filters.

Data Extraction

1. Schema-Based CSS Extraction (Most Efficient)

No LLM required at extract time — fast, deterministic, cost-free. One-time LLM cost to derive the schema, then reuse indefinitely. The bundled scripts split the pipeline by responsibility:

./scripts/generate_schema.py https://shop.example.com "products with name, price, image" shop_schema.json
./scripts/extract_with_schema.py https://shop.example.com shop_schema.json products.json

Or via the CLI with the YAML strategy template + the saved schema:

crwl https://shop.example.com -e templates/extract_css.yml -s shop_schema.json -o json

Schema skeleton: templates/css_schema.json. Strategy YAML: templates/extract_css.yml.

2. LLM-Based Extraction

For one-off / irregular content where a CSS schema is too brittle:

./scripts/extract_with_llm.py https://news.example.com "Extract headlines, dates, summaries" news.json

Or via the CLI with the strategy template:

crwl https://news.example.com -e templates/extract_llm.yml -o json

Strategy YAML: templates/extract_llm.yml. Pays an LLM call per URL — for repeat extraction, prefer the schema pipeline above.

For extraction strategy reference: Extraction Strategies.

Advanced Patterns

Dynamic Content (JavaScript-Heavy Sites)

crwl https://example.com -c "wait_for=css:.ajax-content,scan_full_page=true,page_timeout=60000"
crwl https://example.com -C templates/crawler.yml                          # all options in a YAML file

Crawler config template: templates/crawler.yml.

Multi-URL Processing

./scripts/batch_crawl.py urls.txt --max-concurrent 5 --out batch_markdown/
./scripts/batch_extract.py urls.txt shop_schema.json --max-concurrent 5 --out products.json

The two scripts split on responsibility: batch_crawl.py returns markdown per URL; batch_extract.py returns schema-extracted JSON per URL. Python equivalent uses arun_many():

urls = ["https://site1.com", "https://site2.com", "https://site3.com"]
results = await crawler.arun_many(urls, config=config)

For batch processing reference: arun_many() Reference.

URL Discovery Before Crawl

When the URL list comes from a sitemap / domain rather than a known list, do discovery first, then feed the result into batch_crawl.py / batch_extract.py. See URL Discovery for the full surface; quick shape:

from crawl4ai import AsyncUrlSeeder, SeedingConfig
seeds = await AsyncUrlSeeder().urls("example.com", SeedingConfig(
    source="sitemap+cc", pattern="*/blog/*", query="machine learning", score_threshold=0.3, live_check=True,
))
urls = [s["url"] for s in seeds]

AsyncUrlSeeder is best when you want BM25-scored filtering against a query; DomainMapper is best when you want maximum coverage of one domain.

Session & Authentication

Fill the login template, then reuse the session id on subsequent crawls:

crwl https://site.com/login -C templates/login_crawler.yml
crwl https://site.com/protected -c "session_id=user_session"

Login template: templates/login_crawler.yml (fill in the field-id selectors and the post-login wait condition before use).

For session management reference: Advanced Features.

Anti-Detection & Proxies

crwl https://example.com -B templates/browser.yml

Browser config template: templates/browser.yml (uncomment proxy_config and init_scripts as needed). For pre-page-load script injection (fingerprint patches that must fire before any site script), populate init_scripts: rather than js_code: (which fires after the page loads). proxy_config works with both the browser strategy and the non-browser HTTPCrawlerStrategy — the latter is the cheap path for static fetches behind a corporate proxy.

Full surface (CDP attachment, undetected mode, init script patterns): Anti-Detection.

Rendering Cached HTML (`raw:` / `file://`)

If the agent already has HTML in hand (e.g., from defuddle or a previous crawl) and only needs a screenshot, PDF, or MHTML render, skip the network fetch and pass the HTML directly. base_url controls relative-link resolution:

result = await crawler.arun(
    url="raw:" + html_string,
    config=CrawlerRunConfig(base_url="https://example.com", screenshot=True, pdf=True),
)

result = await crawler.arun(
    url="file:///path/to/page.html",
    config=CrawlerRunConfig(screenshot=True),
)

Common Use Cases

Eight worked end-to-end flows (docs page, JS-heavy SPA, e-commerce product extraction, news aggregation, topic-bound domain crawl, login-required content, render existing HTML, Q&A) live in Recipes. Pick the recipe closest to the task at hand and adapt.

Resources

Best Practices

Start with CLI for quick tasks, SDK for automation
Use schema-based extraction - 10-100x more efficient than LLM
Enable caching during development - --bypass-cache only when needed
Set appropriate timeouts - 30s normal, 60s+ for JS-heavy sites
Use content filters for cleaner, focused markdown
Respect rate limits - Add delays between requests

Troubleshooting

For symptom → cause → fix tables (JS not loading, bot detection, empty extracted content, session not persisting, slow crawl, schema generation nonsense, post-upgrade regressions), see Troubleshooting. For unknown surface the references don't cover, follow Escalation.
