# Firecrawl CLI Installation
|
|
|
|
## Quick Setup (Recommended)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx -y firecrawl-cli -y
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This installs `firecrawl-cli` globally, authenticates via browser, and installs all skills.
|
|
|
|
Skills are installed globally across all detected coding editors by default.
|
|
|
|
To install skills manually:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
firecrawl setup skills
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Manual Install
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install -g firecrawl-cli@1.8.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Verify
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
firecrawl --status
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Authentication
|
|
|
|
Authenticate using the built-in login flow:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
firecrawl login --browser
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This opens the browser for OAuth authentication. Credentials are stored securely by the CLI.
|
|
|
|
### If authentication fails
|
|
|
|
Ask the user how they'd like to authenticate:
|
|
|
|
1. **Login with browser (Recommended)** - Run `firecrawl login --browser`
|
|
2. **Enter API key manually** - Run `firecrawl login --api-key "<key>"` with a key from firecrawl.dev
|
|
|
|
### Command not found
|
|
|
|
If `firecrawl` is not found after installation:
|
|
|
|
1. Ensure npm global bin is in PATH
|
|
2. Try: `npx firecrawl-cli@1.8.0 --version`
|
|
3. Reinstall: `npm install -g firecrawl-cli@1.8.0`
