firecrawl search

Web search with optional content scraping. Returns search results as JSON, optionally with full page content.

When to use

You don't have a specific URL yet
You need to find pages, answer questions, or discover sources
First step in the workflow escalation pattern: search → scrape → map → crawl → interact

Quick start

# Basic search
firecrawl search "your query" -o .firecrawl/result.json --json

# Search and scrape full page content from results
firecrawl search "your query" --scrape -o .firecrawl/scraped.json --json

# News from the past day
firecrawl search "your query" --sources news --tbs qdr:d -o .firecrawl/news.json --json

Options

Option	Description
`--limit <n>`	Max number of results
`--sources <web,images,news>`	Source types to search
`--categories <github,research,pdf>`	Filter by category
`--tbs <qdr:h\|d\|w\|m\|y>`	Time-based search filter
`--location`	Location for search results
`--country <code>`	Country code for search
`--scrape`	Also scrape full page content for each result
`--scrape-formats`	Formats when scraping (default: markdown)
`-o, --output <path>`	Output file path
`--json`	Output as JSON

Tips

--scrape fetches full content — don't re-scrape URLs from search results. This saves credits and avoids redundant fetches.
Always write results to .firecrawl/ with -o to avoid context window bloat.
Use jq to extract URLs or titles: jq -r '.data.web[].url' .firecrawl/search.json
Naming convention: .firecrawl/search-{query}.json or .firecrawl/search-{query}-scraped.json
