How to install CLI in Codex

In Codex, ask the built-in skill installer for it:

$skill-installer install https://github.com/firecrawl/cli/tree/main/skills/<skill>

Type this in Codex and replace <skill> with a folder name from 'What it contains'. $skill-installer is the skill installer built into Codex, and it downloads the skill from GitHub. Restart Codex if the skill doesn't show up. Check the repo README for any setup it needs. Source: Codex skills docs.

Or copy the skill folder (the one with SKILL.md) into ~/.agents/skills to use it in every project, or into .agents/skills in a repo to share it with that repo. Codex picks up new skills automatically. (where Codex loads skills)

What it contains

Skills (13)

  • firecrawl-agent — Autonomously navigate websites and extract structured data across pages. Use when the task requires navigation or no suitable ready-made workflow or data provider covers it.
  • firecrawl-alexandria — Find a direct path to structured data through ready-made workflows, data APIs, and indexes. Follow the search skill to discover and inspect tools, then the scrape skill to execute them.
  • firecrawl-crawl — Bulk-extract many pages from one site or section. Use for "crawl", "everything under /docs", or content spanning linked pages.
  • firecrawl-developer-index — Searches current documentation, release notes, API references and public repository issues for libraries, frameworks, SDKs, APIs and CLI tools with `firecrawl developer`. Use before answering when the user names a version, is upgrading, pastes an error from…
  • firecrawl-download — Save a site or section as local files (markdown, screenshots). Use for "download the site", offline docs, or a local copy for reference.
  • firecrawl-interact — Drive a live browser on a scraped page: click, fill forms, log in, paginate, infinite-scroll. Use when content requires interaction or a scrape failed or returned incomplete content.
  • firecrawl-map — Discover and list a site's URLs, with search filtering. Use for "map the site" or "find the URL for" requests — when the user knows the site but not the exact page, or wants site structure.
  • firecrawl-monitor — Alert by webhook/email on web changes — use for "monitor/watch/track/alert me when": recurring checks on known URLs (prefer over repeated one-off scrapes) or web-wide watches for new results (queries + goal).
  • firecrawl-parse — Convert a local file (PDF, DOCX, XLSX, HTML, …) to markdown, or answer questions about its content. Use whenever the input is a file path, not a URL.
  • firecrawl-research-index — Find the papers that answer a research query in Firecrawl's research paper index — a corpus of paper abstracts whose largest share is biomedical and life-science literature (PubMed, bioRxiv, medRxiv), alongside arXiv preprints in CS, physics, and math …
  • firecrawl-scrape — Read a known webpage or execute a discovered workflow or data-provider capability. Use for page content or structured results once the URL or tool is selected.
  • firecrawl-search — Find web sources with query-relevant page excerpts and optional full-page content, and discover workflows, data APIs, and indexes. Use for web research or finding structured records, listings, transcripts, and datasets. Supports semantic tool discovery…
  • firecrawl — Any live-web task via the Firecrawl CLI — including ordinary web research: searching the web, reading or extracting pages, gathering sources, discovering site URLs, bulk extraction, downloading a site, change alerts, or pages needing clicks/login — web only…
