firecrawl-research-index — Skills

What it does

MCP: firecrawlresearchsearchpapers(query, k?)

MCP: firecrawlresearchrelatedpapers(seedids, intent, mode?, k?)

MCP: firecrawlresearchinspectpaper(id)

MCP: firecrawlresearchreadpaper(id, question)

MCP: firecrawlsearch(query) / firecrawlscrape(url)

Single named paper ("the Qwen3 report") → one searchpapers, done. This is the only case that truly wants exactly one paper.

Only drop the clearly off-topic. Don't pad with papers you're confident are unrelated — but that's a high bar; most plausibly-relevant work should make the cut.
