Firecrawl

What is the Firecrawl tool?

The Firecrawl tool is a built-in capability in the Agno framework that allows AI agents to web crawling and scraping via firecrawl. When added to an agent in Agno Builder, the agent can autonomously decide when to invoke this tool based on the user's request.

This tool requires a FIRECRAWL_API_KEY environment variable. Get your API key at firecrawl.dev.

How to use Firecrawl in Agno Builder

1. 1

   Create an agent

   Drag an Agent node onto the canvas in Agno Builder, or use one of the built-in templates.

2. 2

   Enable Firecrawl

   Click the agent, go to the Tools tab, and toggle on "Firecrawl" from the scraping category.

3. 3

   Add your API key

   Enter your FIRECRAWL_API_KEY in the tool configuration. Your key stays in your browser and is never stored on our servers.

4. 4

   Test in chat

   Open the chat panel and send a message. The agent will automatically use Firecrawl when relevant.

5. 5

   Export Python code

   Click File > Export Python to get clean, runnable code with the correct imports for Firecrawl.

Python code example

This is the code Agno Builder exports when you use Firecrawl:

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIChat
from agno.tools.firecrawl import FirecrawlTools

agent = Agent(
    name="Firecrawl Agent",
    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o"),
    tools=[FirecrawlTools()],
    instructions=["Use the firecrawl tool to help the user."],
    markdown=True,
)

agent.print_response("Help me with a firecrawl task")

Install with: pip install agno # + set FIRECRAWL_API_KEY
