Save a site or section as local files (markdown, screenshots). Use for "download the site", offline docs, or a local copy for reference.

## Install

git clone https://github.com/firecrawl/cli /tmp/cli && ln -s /tmp/cli/skills/firecrawl-download ~/.claude/skills/firecrawl-download
```

## From README

firecrawl download (invoked as firecrawl x download) Experimental. download is available under the firecrawl x command group. Prerequisite: download requires authentication (no keyless free tier); without credentials the CLI prompts an interactive login. Maps the site origin first to discover pages, then scrapes each one into nested directories under .firecrawl/. Use --include-paths to scope a non-root URL to one section. Automated runs always pass -y — without it the command opens an interactive wizard that blocks on a prompt. Run firecrawl x download --help for the full option list, including which scrape options download supports. Done when: the command exits successfully and the expected files exist under .firecrawl/. See also firecrawl-map — just discover URLs without downloading firecrawl-scrape — scrape individual pages firecrawl-crawl — bulk extract as JSON (not local files) — building bulk extraction into an app instead of running it here
