It runs on Grok 4.5, plans its work before it acts, and can run multiple sub-agents in parallel. It also reads Claude Code's MCP configuration, so any server you already have in a .mcp.json is picked up with no changes. In this guide, I will show you how to connect your Firecrawl account to Grok Build through Composio, 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 leaving the terminal. Composio holds the OAuth tokens for you, and Grok Build only calls the tools you approve. ## Also integrate Firecrawl with - [ChatGPT Work](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/chatgpt) - [Antigravity](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/antigravity) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/codex) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/cursor) - [VS Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/vscode) - [OpenCode](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/opencode) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/firecrawl/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### Why use Composio over a standalone MCP server? - Read and write access. Composio's Firecrawl integration lets Grok Build take real actions like creating drafts, sending updates, and labeling records, not just reading data. - 1,000+ SaaS toolkits out of the box. One endpoint gives you a full catalog of pre-built connectors, from Gmail and Slack to Notion, Linear, and Salesforce. - One MCP server for every app. Wire up a single Composio server instead of maintaining a separate MCP entry for each app. - Smart, context-aware tool loading. Grok Build caps how many tools it holds in a single request. Composio loads only the tools a task needs, so you do not spend that budget on tools you are not using. - Cross-app automation. Chain actions across apps in one run. Pull a thread, summarize it in Notion, and post the highlights to Slack from a single prompt. ## Connect Firecrawl to Grok Build ### Prerequisites - Grok Build installed and signed in. Install with curl -fsSL https://x.ai/cli/install.sh | bash on macOS or Linux, or irm https://x.ai/cli/install.ps1 | iex on Windows PowerShell. On first launch Grok opens a browser to authenticate; for headless or CI use, set an XAI_API_KEY environment variable instead (create the key at [console.x.ai](https://console.x.ai/)). - Access to the Firecrawl account you want to connect. - The [Composio MCP endpoint](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=grok-build&utm_content=composio_connect). Composio's server is remote and hosted, so there is nothing to run locally and no tunnel to set up. ### Step-by-step: Connect Firecrawl to Grok Build ### 1. Install and verify Grok Build Install the CLI, then restart your shell so the grok binary lands on your PATH: ```bash curl -fsSL https://x.ai/cli/install.sh | bash which grok ``` ## What is the Firecrawl MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Firecrawl MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Firecrawl account. It provides structured and secure access to automated web crawling, scraping, and data extraction, so your agent can perform actions like indexing sites, extracting structured content, mapping URLs, and searching the web on your behalf. - Automated web crawling and indexing: Let your agent launch and manage web crawl jobs to gather content or index entire websites efficiently. - Structured data extraction: Instruct your agent to extract targeted data from web pages using custom prompts or schemas, turning unstructured sites into actionable information. - URL mapping and discovery: Have the agent explore and map all URLs within a website, including options for subdomain inclusion, sitemap processing, or search-based discovery. - On-demand scraping and content retrieval: Enable your agent to scrape specific URLs, retrieve page content, and even extract structured JSON using LLM-powered methods. - Integrated web search and data collection: Task your agent with running web searches, scraping top result pages, and returning relevant details—all in one workflow. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `FIRECRAWL_AGENT_CANCEL` | Cancel an agent job | Tool to cancel an in-progress agent job by its ID.

A standalone Firecrawl MCP server gives Grok Build a fixed set of Firecrawl tools tied to that one server. The Composio Tool Router lets Grok Build load tools from Firecrawl and many other apps on demand, based on the task, all through a single endpoint. ### Does Grok Build support MCP? Yes. Grok Build ships with native MCP support. Add a server with the grok mcp add command, from the in-session /mcps modal, or by editing ~/.grok/config.toml. It also reads Claude Code-style .mcp.json files, so Grok Build discovers the tools automatically. ### Can I reuse the same MCP config I already use with Claude Code? Yes. Grok Build has zero-migration compatibility with Claude Code's configuration, so the same Composio server entry works in both without edits. ### How safe is my Firecrawl data with Composio? Tokens, keys, and configuration are encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant, so your Firecrawl data and credentials are handled to that standard. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
