Parse Local Documents with Firecrawl
Local files often need clean text before review, search, or summarization. This skill uses Firecrawl to convert documents into saved markdown for Claude, Codex, and Claude Code.

Security Audit
Medium RiskThe Ruby backtick and path traversal alerts are false positives from Markdown formatting and a relative documentation link. I found one contextual risk: local documents may be uploaded to Firecrawl during parsing. No prompt injection or malicious override text was found.

Question Long Agreements
Parse a contract and ask targeted questions about dates, terms, and obligations.
Try These Prompts
Parse ./paper.pdf and save the markdown output in the .firecrawl folder.

Best Practices
- Confirm before parsing sensitive or regulated documents.
- Save large outputs to the .firecrawl folder before reading them.
- Search or skim parsed output before asking broad follow-up questions.
Avoid
- Do not use this skill for web URLs.
- Do not stream very large parsed documents directly into the chat context.
- Do not parse the same file repeatedly before checking saved output.
