The README had drifted from the code and the docs. Verified the registered tools against src/ (server.addTool) on main and reconciled both. Tools: - Remove firecrawl_batch_scrape / firecrawl_check_batch_status — not registered in the code (only referenced in prose / legacy). - Add firecrawl_parse (local-file parse via self-hosted /v2/parse), firecrawl_interact, firecrawl_interact_stop, and the firecrawl_research_* suite (arXiv + GitHub, gated on research access) — all present in code, previously undocumented. - Renumber the Available Tools sections and refresh the quick-reference table and "How to Choose a Tool" guidance. Install & params: - Add the remote hosted URL (https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/{KEY}/v2/mcp) plus Claude Code, Google Antigravity, and n8n sections. - Fix the local Streamable HTTP path /mcp -> /v2/mcp. - Fix crawl maxDepth -> maxDiscoveryDepth; modernize search params (lang/country -> location/sources). - Features: "SSE support" -> "Streamable HTTP support"; add monitor + research bullets.

…ntal - Remove the firecrawl_extract tool section + table row (per product direction). - Parse: clarify it is self-hosted only (registered only when CLOUD_SERVICE != true). - Research: reframe as experimental/opt-in (FIRECRAWL_RESEARCH=true or ?research=true); not exposed on the standard hosted MCP. - Remove remaining stale batch_scrape prose references.

The README had drifted from both the code and the docs. I verified the registered tools and their availability guards against
src/onmain(v3.20.4) and brought the README in line with what the hosted MCP actually exposes.Tools
firecrawl_batch_scrape+firecrawl_check_batch_status— not registered in the code (only in prose /src/legacy/). Also cleaned up stalebatch_scrapeprose references.firecrawl_extractsection (per product direction).firecrawl_parse— self-hosted only (registered only whenCLOUD_SERVICE !== 'true'; needsFIRECRAWL_API_URL).firecrawl_interact/firecrawl_interact_stop.firecrawl_research_*— experimental / opt-in (FIRECRAWL_RESEARCH=trueor?research=true); not on the standard hosted MCP.Install & params
https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/{KEY}/v2/mcp) and Claude Code / Google Antigravity / n8n sections./mcp→/v2/mcp.maxDepth→maxDiscoveryDepth; modernized search params (lang/country→location/sources).Note for maintainers
The published docs at docs.firecrawl.dev/mcp-server still list a browser-session suite (
firecrawl_browser_create/execute/delete/list) that is not in the code — looks like a docs bug (flagging separately; not touched here).🤖 Generated with Claude Code
