Firecrawler

BenignClawScan verdict for this skill. Analyzed May 1, 2026, 4:53 AM.

Analysis

Firecrawler is a coherent Firecrawl API helper, with expected notes around its API key, third-party provider use, and unpinned SDK install.

GuidanceThis skill appears appropriate for Firecrawl-based scraping and crawling. Before installing, configure a Firecrawl API key you are comfortable using, be mindful of credit costs, avoid sending sensitive URLs or prompts, and consider pinning the Firecrawl SDK version.

Findings (4)

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

Abnormal behavior control

Checks for instructions or behavior that redirect the agent, misuse tools, execute unexpected code, cascade across systems, exploit user trust, or continue outside the intended task.

Agentic Supply Chain Vulnerabilities
SeverityLowConfidenceHighStatusNote
SKILL.md
pip3 install firecrawl

The setup installs an unpinned third-party SDK. This is expected for a Firecrawl integration, but the artifacts do not pin a version or provide a lockfile.

User impactA future or unexpected SDK version could behave differently from the version the author tested.
RecommendationInstall the SDK from a trusted package index and consider pinning a known-good Firecrawl SDK version in your environment.
Tool Misuse and Exploitation
SeverityInfoConfidenceHighStatusNote
SKILL.md
python3 fc.py crawl "https://docs.example.com" --limit 50 --output ./docs

The skill can crawl many pages through Firecrawl. This is central to the stated purpose and the documentation warns about credits, but users should keep limits reasonable.

User impactLarge crawls may spend API credits or collect more web content than intended.
RecommendationSet explicit, modest crawl and map limits and review the target URL before running broad crawls.
Permission boundary

Checks whether tool use, credentials, dependencies, identity, account access, or inter-agent boundaries are broader than the stated purpose.

Identity and Privilege Abuse
SeverityLowConfidenceHighStatusNote
SKILL.md
export FIRECRAWL_API_KEY=fc-your-key-here

The skill requires a Firecrawl API key, while the registry metadata says there is no primary credential or required environment variable. This is disclosed and purpose-aligned, but it gives the skill access to the user's Firecrawl account credits.

User impactUsing the skill can spend Firecrawl credits under the configured account.
RecommendationUse a Firecrawl key with appropriate account limits and remove or rotate it if you stop using the skill.
Sensitive data protection

Checks for exposed credentials, poisoned memory or context, unclear communication boundaries, or sensitive data that could leave the user's control.

Insecure Inter-Agent Communication

fc.py
return Firecrawl(api_key=api_key)

The script uses Firecrawl as an external provider for URLs, searches, screenshots, and extraction requests. This is disclosed by the skill purpose, but user-supplied URLs, queries, schemas, and prompts may be processed by that provider.

User impactInformation included in URLs, search queries, extraction prompts, or schemas may be sent to Firecrawl.
RecommendationAvoid sending private URLs, secrets, or sensitive prompts unless Firecrawl's data handling is acceptable for your use case.
