Install

What it connects to
Unverified means a mention in the skill’s own description, not a citation. A wrong claim here costs nothing to correct and nothing to trust yet.
Maintenance
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 a library or tool, or asks how to use, configure or migrate a specific library or API. Model knowledge stops at a training cutoff and misses new releases, renamed APIs, changed defaults and recent fixes, so when a version, option, error or API is unfamiliar or may have changed, look it up instead of guessing. Also checks whether a bug was fixed and in which release. Not for general programming concepts, code that uses no specific library, or refactoring code the user supplied.
