Add web scraping and search capabilities to Cursor with Firecrawl MCP.

​
Quick Setup

​
1. Get Your API Key

Sign up at firecrawl.dev/app and copy your API key.

​
2. Add to Cursor

Open Settings (Cmd+,), search for “MCP”, and add: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "firecrawl": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "firecrawl-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "FIRECRAWL_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace your_api_key_here with your actual Firecrawl API key.

​
3. Restart Cursor

Done! You can now search and scrape the web from Cursor.

Windows Troubleshooting

If you see a spawn npx ENOENT or “No server info found” error on Windows, Cursor cannot find npx in your PATH. Try one of these fixes: Option A: Use the full path to npx.cmd Run where npx in Command Prompt to get the full path, then update your config: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "firecrawl": {
      "command": "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\npx.cmd",
      "args": ["-y", "firecrawl-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "FIRECRAWL_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace the command path with the output from where npx. Option B: Use the remote hosted URL (no Node.js required) 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "firecrawl": {
      "url": "https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/YOUR-API-KEY/v2/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Replace YOUR-API-KEY with your Firecrawl API key.
