firecrawl-crawl

Bulk extract content from entire websites or site sections with depth and path filtering. Bulk extract content from a website. Crawls pages following links up to a depth/limit. - Crawls pages following links up to configurable depth limits and page counts, with path inclusion/exclusion filters to scope extraction - Supports async job polling or synchronous waiting with progress display via --wait and --progress flags - Offers concurrency control, request delays, and JSON output formatting for integration into agent workflows - Part of a four-step escalation pattern: search → scrape → map → crawl, used when single-page extraction is insufficient - You need content from many pages on a site (e.g., all /docs/ ) - You want to extract an entire site section - Step 4 in the workflow escalation pattern : search → scrape → map → crawl → interact - Always use --wait when you need the results immediately. Without it, crawl returns a job ID for async polling. - Use --include-paths to scope the crawl — don't crawl an entire site when you only need one section. - Crawl consumes credits per page. Check firecrawl credit-usage before large crawls.
