# Firecrawl Workflows

Use this when the user wants a finished deliverable powered by Firecrawl, not only raw web extraction and not product-code integration.

## Choose The Workflow

- Use [firecrawl-website-design-clone](../firecrawl-website-design-clone/SKILL.md) to extract a website's colors, fonts, spacing, components, and layout patterns into an agent-ready `DESIGN.md`.
- Use [firecrawl-research-papers](../firecrawl-research-papers/SKILL.md) for literature reviews and paper-backed synthesis, including biomedical, clinical, drug, gene, disease, epidemiology, and public-health topics. It queries Firecrawl's paper index — PubMed, bioRxiv, medRxiv, and arXiv abstracts with full text reachable per paper — rather than searching websites.
- Use [firecrawl-deep-research](../firecrawl-deep-research/SKILL.md) for sourced multi-source research reports built from **web** evidence: market, policy, technical, or industry topics. Not for literature reviews — when the evidence base is published papers, use `firecrawl-research-papers` above.
- Use [firecrawl-seo-audit](../firecrawl-seo-audit/SKILL.md) for site structure, on-page SEO, keyword, and SERP audits.
- Use [firecrawl-lead-research](../firecrawl-lead-research/SKILL.md) for pre-meeting company/person intelligence briefs.
- Use [firecrawl-qa](../firecrawl-qa/SKILL.md) for live-site QA testing and bug reports.
- Use [firecrawl-competitive-intel](../firecrawl-competitive-intel/SKILL.md) for recurring pricing, feature, and changelog monitoring.
- Use [firecrawl-company-directories](../firecrawl-company-directories/SKILL.md) for directory extraction into company lists.
- Use [firecrawl-dashboard-reporting](../firecrawl-dashboard-reporting/SKILL.md) for dashboard metrics extraction.
- Use [firecrawl-knowledge-base](../firecrawl-knowledge-base/SKILL.md) for LLM-ready docs, RAG chunks, training data, or docs mirrors.
- Use [firecrawl-knowledge-ingest](../firecrawl-knowledge-ingest/SKILL.md) for auth-gated or JS-heavy docs portal ingestion.
- Use [firecrawl-lead-gen](../firecrawl-lead-gen/SKILL.md) for prospect list generation.
- Use [firecrawl-market-research](../firecrawl-market-research/SKILL.md) for market, financial, and industry research.
- Use [firecrawl-demo-walkthrough](../firecrawl-demo-walkthrough/SKILL.md) for product flow walkthroughs and UX teardown reports.
- Use [firecrawl-shop](../firecrawl-shop/SKILL.md) for product research and shopping recommendations.

If no existing workflow fits, use this generic process and produce a reusable pattern that could become a new skill.

## Required Intake

Infer the workflow, inputs, audience, and output format from the user's request and surrounding context. If enough is clear, start immediately.

Ask at most 1-3 concise clarifying questions only when a missing input would block the work, such as:

- the URL, company, topic, or source to analyze
- the desired deliverable or output format
- a constraint that would materially change the workflow

Use the host agent's normal way to ask clarifying questions. Do not depend on a harness-specific function name.

## Default Process

1. Confirm the workflow and final art
