MCP Web Search & Scrape in WorkBuddy

Add Firecrawl’s Search, Scrape, Crawl, and Map tools to Tencent WorkBuddy through the hosted MCP server.

Quick setup

Create a Firecrawl API key, then add the server in WorkBuddy:

Open Experts · Skills · Connectors, switch to the Connectors tab, and select Custom connectors.
Select Configure MCP to open the MCP configuration editor.
Add Firecrawl to mcpServers and save:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "firecrawl": {
      "url": "https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <FIRECRAWL_API_KEY>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace <FIRECRAWL_API_KEY> with your key. If you already have other servers, add only the firecrawl entry and keep the rest. WorkBuddy stores this in ~/.workbuddy/mcp.json. For a single project, use <project>/.workbuddy/mcp.json instead. Back in the MCP list, turn firecrawl on, and trust it if WorkBuddy asks. A green status means it is connected and tools such as firecrawl_search and firecrawl_scrape are available. WorkBuddy also supports MCP OAuth. To sign in instead of using a key, see For Humans.

Try it

Search the web for the latest Tencent Cloud announcements and summarize the sources.

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

Troubleshooting

Status is red: check that the JSON is valid and the URL is exactly https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp.
401 Unauthorized: confirm the key and keep the Bearer prefix in the Authorization header.
Tools do not appear: turn the server off and on again so WorkBuddy refreshes the tool list.
