How to integrate Firecrawl MCP with Cursor

Cursor is one of the leading AI-powered code editors. It is built to help developers write, understand, and refactor code faster with AI assistance built directly into the editor.

And in this guide, I will explain the easiest and most secure way to connect your Firecrawl account to Cursor via Composio Connect, so it can extract all product prices from this e-commerce site, crawl competitor blogs for latest article summaries, map all subpages linked from homepage URL, and more without ever putting your account credentials at risk.

Also integrate Firecrawl with

Why Composio?

  • 1,000+ SaaS toolkits out of the box. Skip the work of building and maintaining integrations, Composio gives you instant access to a vast catalog of pre-built connectors.
  • One MCP server for every app. Connect any of your applications on demand through a single endpoint, rather than juggling a separate server for each app.
  • Smart, context-aware tool loading. Unlike traditional MCP servers that dump every available tool into the LLM context window, Composio searches for and loads only the tools relevant to the task at hand. A remote CLI workbench lets LLMs compose these tools into workflows for complex automation.

Connect Firecrawl to Cursor

Two ways to install — pick whichever you prefer.

1. Install with one click

Click the button below to add Composio to Cursor.

2. Or add manually

Add to your Cursor mcp.json

Open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root (or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for global config) and add the following configuration:

bash
{
  "servers": {
    "composio": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

3. Authorize

Restart Cursor, then click "Connect" next to Composio in MCP Tools settings.

Connect your Firecrawl account

Back in Cursor, ask the agent to connect to Firecrawl or give it any Firecrawl-related task.

For example, ask it to:

  • "Extract all product prices from this e-commerce site"
  • "Crawl competitor blogs for latest article summaries"
  • "Map all subpages linked from homepage URL"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access to Firecrawl.

That is it. Composio tools are now available in Cursor, and your Firecrawl account is ready to use.

Supported Tools & Triggers

Tools
Cancel a crawl jobCancels an active or queued web crawl job using its id; attempting to cancel completed, failed, or previously canceled jobs will not change their state.
Start a web crawlInitiates a firecrawl web crawl from a given url, applying various filtering and content extraction rules, and polls until the job is complete; ensure the url is accessible and any regex patterns for paths are valid.
Extract structured dataExtracts structured data from web pages by initiating an extraction job and polling for completion; requires a natural language `prompt` or a json `schema` (one must be provided).
Get the status of a crawl jobRetrieves the current status, progress, and details of a web crawl job, using the job id obtained when the crawl was initiated.
Map multiple URLsMaps a website by discovering urls from a starting base url, with options to customize the crawl via search query, subdomain inclusion, sitemap handling, and result limits; search effectiveness is site-dependent.
Scrape URLScrapes a publicly accessible url, optionally performing pre-scrape browser actions or extracting structured json using an llm, to retrieve content in specified formats.
SearchPerforms a web search for a query, scrapes content from the top search results using firecrawl, and returns details in specified formats.

Conclusion

You have successfully connected Firecrawl to Cursor using Composio Connect. Your agent can now use Firecrawl securely without exposing credentials in prompts or local scripts.

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Firecrawl MCP?

With a standalone Firecrawl MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Firecrawl tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Firecrawl and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Can I use Tool Router MCP with Cursor?

Yes, you can. Cursor fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Firecrawl tools.

Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Firecrawl while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Firecrawl scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Firecrawl data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
