firecrawl-map

name	firecrawl-map
description	Discover and list all URLs on a website, with optional search filtering. Use this skill when the user wants to find a specific page on a large site, list all URLs, see the site structure, find where something is on a domain, or says "map the site", "find the URL for", "what pages are on", or "list all pages". Essential when the user knows which site but not which exact page.

firecrawl map

Via the Firecrawl MCP (preferred)

This plugin bundles the Firecrawl MCP server. When it's connected, prefer the native firecrawl_map tool over the CLI — it needs no local install and authenticates through the plugin's one-time browser sign-in. The firecrawl CLI commands below are the fallback for when the MCP isn't connected.

Discover URLs on a site. Use --search to find a specific page within a large site.

When to use

• You need to find a specific subpage on a large site
• You want a list of all URLs on a site before scraping or crawling
• Step 3 in the workflow escalation pattern: search → scrape → map → crawl → interact

Quick start

# Find a specific page on a large site
firecrawl map "<url>" --search "authentication" -o .firecrawl/filtered.txt

# Get all URLs
firecrawl map "<url>" --limit 500 --json -o .firecrawl/urls.json

Options

Option	Description
--limit <n>	Max number of URLs to return
--search <query>	Filter URLs by search query
--sitemap <include|skip|only>	Sitemap handling strategy
--include-subdomains	Include subdomain URLs
--json	Output as JSON
-o, --output <path>	Output file path

Tips

• Map + scrape is a common pattern: use map --search to find the right URL, then scrape it.
• Example: map https://docs.example.com --search "auth" → found /docs/api/authentication → scrape that URL.
