Add web scraping and search capabilities to Cursor with Firecrawl MCP.

Quick Setup

1. Get Your API Key

Sign up at firecrawl.dev/app and copy your API key.

2. Add to Cursor

Open Settings (Cmd+,), search for “MCP”, and add:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "firecrawl": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "firecrawl-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "FIRECRAWL_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace your_api_key_here with your actual Firecrawl API key.

3. Restart Cursor

Done! You can now search and scrape the web from Cursor.
