How to Use the Firecrawl MCP in Mastra AI
Build resilient web-scraping workflows in Mastra AI with the Firecrawl MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Firecrawl MCP to Mastra AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect Firecrawl to Mastra AI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automated site scraping for Mastra AI
Trigger `scrape_page` within your Mastra workflows to get clean text from any URL. It strips away the noise so your agents only process the data that matters. Because this runs as an MCP Server, you can chain these calls into your existing logic. If a scrape fails, your workflow engine handles the retry logic automatically.
Recursive crawling for complex agents
Deploy `crawl_site` to index entire domains for your Mastra agents. You get a job ID back, allowing your workflow to pause and wait for the data to be ready. Use this to build knowledge bases that update themselves. Your agents can trigger these crawls based on events, keeping your internal data fresh.
Site mapping for workflow logic
Use `map_site` to determine which URLs your agent should visit next. This is critical for agents that need to navigate documentation or product catalogs systematically. By understanding the structure first, you reduce the number of calls your agent makes. It saves time and keeps your workflow execution costs low.
