firecrawl-data-handling
Validate, minimize, classify, deduplicate, retain, and dispose of Firecrawl documents and extracted JSON safely. Use when building downstream storage, RAG, or analytics pipelines. Trigger with "store Firecrawl data", "Firecrawl RAG ingestion", or "clean scraped content".
Why this skill is useful
Adds executable scripts for processing, validating, and storing Firecrawl scraped content, which are not commonly found in public documentation.
What it needs
Requires @mendable/firecrawl-js, zod installed locally. Requires firecrawl account access. About 2k tokens when loaded. Last updated 2026-08-07. 2,604 stars on the source repository.
What this skill does
Firecrawl Content Data Handling Overview Treat scraped pages, metadata, screenshots, file parses, and model-extracted JSON as untrusted external data. Preserve provenance while storing only what the approved use case requires. Prerequisites The target repository or integration path and the requested operator outcome. The source authorization, data classification, and environment policy. Current Firecrawl documentation, credentials only when needed, and an owner for approvals. Current Contract SDKs return document data directly; REST returns it under data. metadata.sourceURL and metadata.statusCode are essential provenance and quality fields. storeInCache, zeroDataRetention, lockdown, screenshots, raw HTML, file upload, and persistent browser profiles create materially different data-handling obligations. Authentication For authenticated Cloud operations, inject FIRECRAWLAPIKEY from an approved secret manager. REST requests use Authorization: Bearer with the key. Never print, commit, transmit, or place a key in a URL. Keyless access is suitable only where the current documentation explicitly allows it and the workload accepts its limits; production workflows should make identity and team ownership explicit. Instructions 1. Document source authorization, data classification, permitted fields, purpose, storage region, retention period, deletion path, and downstream consumers. 2. Validate the document envelope and origin status before processing. Reject unsupported content types, captured error pages, oversized fields, and missing provenance. 3. Normalize canonical URLs, strip fragments and disallowed query material, and compute content hashes for deduplication without treating the hash as authorization. 4. Sanitize HTML/Markdown for the destination, neutralize active content, and keep scraped instructions outside trusted agent/system context. 5. Validate JSON extraction against the declared schema and business constraints. …
