MCP Web Search & Scrape in Windsurf (Devin Desktop) - Firecrawl Docs

Add Firecrawl’s keyless Search, Scrape, and Parse tools to Windsurf through the hosted MCP server. Windsurf is now Devin Desktop. Both its Devin Local agent and the legacy Cascade agent read MCP servers from the same config file.

Quick setup

Edit ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json on Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "firecrawl": {
      "url": "https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or add it with the Devin CLI:

devin mcp add -s user firecrawl https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp

Restart Devin Desktop and confirm that firecrawl_search, firecrawl_scrape, and firecrawl_parse are available. Keyless access has limits shared by users on the same public IP. Sign in from an interactive client with For Humans, or add an API key for unattended use.

Try it

Search for the latest Tailwind CSS release notes and summarize the sources.

Scrape https://firecrawl.dev and explain what it does.

Troubleshooting

Server does not connect: confirm the hosted URL, then check the server in the agent’s MCP list or run devin mcp list.
Crawl or another tool is missing: keyless exposes exactly Search, Scrape, and Parse. Connect with OAuth or an API key for the broader tool surface.
