Frequently asked questions
How is Spider different from Firecrawl?
Spider is built in Rust and optimized for raw speed and volume — it can crawl 100K+ pages per second, making it 10-20x faster than Firecrawl for large-scale operations. Spider also offers lower per-page costs at high volume, built-in stealth mode with fingerprint rotation, and multiple request modes (HTTP, Smart, Chrome). Firecrawl excels at simplicity and LLM-specific features like JSON extraction.
What output formats does Spider support?
Spider supports Markdown, HTML, raw HTML, plain text, JSON (structured extraction), screenshots, and PDF output. You can specify the desired format via the return_format parameter in each request.
How does Spider pricing work?
Spider offers 500 free credits to get started (no credit card required). Paid plans are usage-based with credits consumed per page scraped. The Starter plan begins at $15/month with 12,000 credits. Enterprise plans offer custom pricing with dedicated infrastructure and unlimited concurrency.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
