  • Visual Capture — Capture full-page screenshots of any URL directly through your agent to maintain a visual record of web data
  • Usage Monitoring — Track your Firecrawl credit usage, remaining limits, and active crawl job statuses in real-time

Turn 'https://stripe.com/docs/api' into clean Markdown.

Scraping in progress... I've successfully converted the Stripe API documentation into high-fidelity Markdown, excluding the navigation and footers. Would you like me to summarize the main endpoints for you?

Crawl 'https://docs.firecrawl.dev' recursively with a limit of 10 pages.

Crawl job started! I've initiated a recursive crawl of the Firecrawl documentation (ID: crl_123). I'll monitor the progress for you and notify you as soon as the 10 pages are indexed.

Map all internal links for 'https://github.com/vinkius'.

Mapping site structure... I've identified all reachable links for the requested domain. I found 25 internal URLs, including various repository and profile paths. Would you like the full list of mapped URLs?
