Search the web and scrape or crawl pages into clean Markdown for the model.

Official serverRemote + localWeb search & scraping

1. Add the server

Run in your terminal

codex mcp add firecrawl --url https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp

2. Sign in

Run codex mcp login <name> to complete OAuth for a remote server. Firecrawl is hosted by Firecrawl, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.

3. Try it

Ask Codex for something Firecrawl can do. Search the web and scrape or crawl pages into clean Markdown for the model. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.

· Each server is a [mcp_servers.<name>] table in config.toml.
· Use enabled_tools or disabled_tools to keep the tool list short.
