entries are forwarded verbatim. - firecrawl_exchange_discover refuses "." and ".." cohort, provider, and capability segments and refuses `expand` off the cohort route before any request, so the tool stays strictly under /exchange/discover*. - relayExchangeError also surfaces `chargeId` from the reserved 409 duplicate_request / request_in_flight billing errors. - Tests: bare-string sources forwarded verbatim (full and search profiles) and an unknown source rejected without a request; 409 chargeId relay; dot-segment and expand-off-cohort refusals with zero API calls; sources schema assertion updated to the union shape. - docs/search-profile.md documents the exchange source on the search surface; CHANGELOG updated.

This limits individual responses, not the client's total conversation context. + +Local stdio users can set `FIRECRAWL_MCP_OUTPUT_DIR` to also save oversized original results as private files. Hosted MCP cannot write to a client's filesystem. A client with filesystem tools can save retrieved chunks itself. Local output files are retained until the user removes them. + +Requests with explicit `zeroDataRetention: true` do not retain results or write files. Oversized ZDR output is explicitly marked as preview-only; use narrower inputs or a larger inline budget. Multi-replica hosted deployment needs shared result storage before relying on follow-up reads across replicas. diff --git a/package.json b/package.json index 8ea0b3a6..01258206 100644 --- a/package.json +++ b/package.json @@ -30,6 +30,7 @@ "@mendable/firecrawl-js": "4.25.2", "dotenv": "^17.2.2", "fastmcp": "4.3.2", + "js-tiktoken": "^1.0.21", "zod": "^4.1.5" }, "engines": { diff --git a/pnpm-lock.yaml b/pnpm-lock.yaml index 191e70c0..e88178f9 100644 --- a/pnpm-lock.yaml +++ b/pnpm-lock.yaml @@ -22,6 +22,9 @@ importers: fastmcp: specifier: 4.3.2 version: 4.3.2(patch_hash=4ce43b72d62ea76fc9a1cc3a6244a4258d3311a6d369cbe171b5186b3139b489) + js-tiktoken: + specifier: ^1.0.21 + version: 1.0.21 zod: specifier: ^4.1.5 version: 4.1.11 @@ -565,6 +568,9 @@ packages: balanced-match@1.0.2: resolution: {integrity: sha512-3oSeUO0TMV67hN1AmbXsK4yaqU7tjiHlbxRDZOpH0KW9+CeX4bRAaX0Anxt0tx2MrpRpWwQaPwIlISEJhYU5Pw==} + base64-js@1.5.1: + resolution: {integrity: sha512-AKpaYlHn8t4SVbOHCy+b5+KKgvR4vrsD8vbvrbiQJps7fKDTkjkDry6ji0rUJjC0kzbNePLwzxq8iypo41qeWA==} + body-parser@2.3.0: resolution: {integrity: sha512-2cGmJupaNgg+QUwVLAucDuWuoMZ6EX9iHDRswZ5lsNYEmwPaRknMPCLZz07yTzVq/83p4o/wzbDZbBrTvGGTIw==} engines: {node: '>=18'} @@ -1112,6 +1118,9 @@ packages: resolution: {integrity: sha512-34wB/Y7MW7bzjKRjUKTa46I2Z7eV62Rkhva+KkopW7Qvv/OSWBqvkSY7vusOPrNuZcUG3tApvdVgNB8POj3SPw==} engines: {node: '>=10'} + js-tiktoken@1.0.21: + resolution: {integrity: sha512-biOj/6M5qdgx5TKjDnFT1ymSpM5tbd3ylwDtrQvFQSu0Z7bBYko2dF+W/aUkXUPuk6IVpRxk/3Q2sHOzGlS36g==} + js-yaml@4.3.0: resolution: {integrity: sha512-1td788aAnnZ5qs7V2QIRl1owjtYpbKt749Y3xauqQgwIIGF/xXWz1wMTEBx5O3LK3lXLVuqXPdPxj2BoFHaW9Q==} hasBin: true @@ -2178,6 +2187,8 @@ snapshots: balanced-match@1.0.2: {} + base64-js@1.5.1: {} + body-parser@2.3.0: dependencies: bytes: 3.1.2 @@ -2789,6 +2800,10 @@ snapshots: joycon@3.1.1: {} + js-tiktoken@1.0.21: + dependencies: + base64-js: 1.5.1 + js-yaml@4.3.0: dependencies: argparse: 2.0.1 diff --git a/src/index.ts b/src/index.ts index c45c0dfb..e910bf24 100644 --- a/src/index.ts +++ b/src/index.ts @@ -5,7 +5,9 @@ import { FastMCP, type Logger, UserError } from 'fastmcp'; import type { IncomingHttpHeaders } from 'http'; import { readFile } from 'node:fs/promises'; import { createRequire } from 'node:module'; -import { randomUUID } from 'node:crypto'; +import { createHash, randomUUID } from 'node:crypto'; +import { ResultStore } from './result-store'; +import { DEFAULT_OUTPUT_TOKENS, MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS } from './output-budget'; import path from 'node:path'; import { z } from 'zod'; import { @@ -1268,6 +1270,7 @@ const SEARCH_PROFILE_INSTRUCTIONS = // against this set, so anything not listed here can never appear on that // instance's tools/list or be called through it. const SEARCH_PROFILE_TOOLS = new Set([ + 'firecrawl_read_result', 'firecrawl_search', 'firecrawl_developer_search', 'firecrawl_research_search_papers', @@ -1375,6 +1378,7 @@ const server = createServer(primaryProfile); type RegisteredTool = Parameters[0]; const KEYLESS_TOOL_NAMES = new Set([ + 'firecrawl_read_result', 'firecrawl_scrape', 'firecrawl_search', 'firecrawl_parse', @@ -1458,8 +1462,13 @@ function isCoreCredentialRejection(error: unknown): boolean { const candidate = error as { response?: { status?: unknown }; status?: unknown; + statusCode?: unknown; }; - return candidate.status === 401 || candidate.response?.status === 401; + return ( + candidate.status === 401 || + candidate.statusCode === 401 || + candidate.response?.status === 401 + ); } /** @@ -1480,7 +1489,11 @@ async function runWithCredentialRecovery( // An OAuth session was validated at connect time, so a rejection there is a // different fault and keeps its own reconnect guidance; a keyless session // never sent an account credential at all. - if (session?.authType !== 'api-key' || !isCoreCredentialRejection(error)) { + const apiKeySession = + session?.authType === 'api-key' || + (session?.authType === 'env' && + isFirecrawlApiKey(session.firecrawlApiKey ??

Client framing and other tokenizers differ. +- 124 MCP tests pass, including a further 20 adversarial text/budget combinations, escaped JSON Pointer paths, eight concurrent owners, eviction, expiry, failed file writes, ZDR and HTTP credential isolation. Build and TypeScript checks pass. + +## Default budget: initial output and selective reads + +Token figures below use cl100k_base.

The guard now bounds those errors while retaining `isError: true`, without sending the large structured payload a second time. +- Limiting only text to 4,000 cl100k tokens allowed JSON framing and escaped content to exceed the budget. The guard now checks the serialized content envelope with both cl100k_base and o200k_base and reserves 32 tokens for outer framing. + +## Tool-definition overhead + +- baseline: 31 tools; 10,660 serialized listing tokens; 591 server-instruction tokens. +- current: 32 tools; 11,515 serialized listing tokens; 591 server-instruction tokens. + +The budget argument and reader add 855 listing tokens. This is setup overhead, not a response-size regression. Clients that load every tool eagerly still pay it; the output cap does not cap tools/list. + +## Reading everything does not save total context + +The batch-72KB fixture reconstructs byte-for-byte through 4 responses: 12,237 text tokens cumulatively versus 11,674 original tokens (4.8% continuation overhead). Savings require selecting relevant paths/fields or saving data outside the conversation. Reading all chunks into context defeats that purpose. + +A conservative 20-response allowance at 4,000 tokens plus the full tool listing and server instructions is about 92,106 tokens before user messages, reasoning or previous history. At a 1,000-token response budget it is about 32,106 tokens. Per-response limits cannot guarantee the remaining conversation window. + +## Remaining deployment limitation + +A result written into one ResultStore instance cannot be read from another. This is expected and tested: the cache is process-local. Hosted MCP has multiple replicas, so shared storage or equivalent routing is still required for reliable follow-up reads. No infra changes or production deployments were made.

Other models tokenize differently. Set `maxOutputTokens` from 512 to 16,000 per call. JSON is compacted before offloading. Expanded discovery, examples, and full contracts remain available. +Authenticated search defaults to web results, semantic Alexandria tools, and domain matches. Start with the actual question. Use `firecrawl_find_tools` only to inspect a missing selected contract or browse progressively: categories → providers → compact tools → selected contract. Execute tools through `firecrawl_scrape`; ordinary URL scraping and search never automatically execute provider tools. -Oversized responses return `truncated: true`, a preview, and a `resultId`. Use `firecrawl_read_result` with that ID and a JSON Pointer `path` such as `/data/tools/0`; optional `fields` selects record fields. Follow `next` for further chunks. These reads do not call the provider again. Read only the portions needed, rather than loading all chunks into the conversation. +For a large retained workflow or regular scrape result, call `firecrawl_scrape` with: -Results are retained in a bounded 64 MiB process-local cache for up to 15 minutes. They may expire sooner after eviction, restart, or routing to another server; an unavailable result returns an explicit error and never automatically reruns the provider. A single result over 64 MiB cannot be retained. This limits individual responses, not the client's total conversation context. +```json +{ + "alexandria": { + "provider": "firecrawl", + "capability": "bash", + "options": { + "requestId": "", + "command": "ls -lh" + } + } +} +``` + +Read `stdout`, `stderr`, `exitCode`, and `workspaceId` in `data.alexandria[0].data`. Continue with `options: {workspaceId, command}` to inspect `response.json` using `jq`, or `document.md` using bounded text commands for regular scrapes. Keep output selective. Source loading must be a standalone call; its nested source ID differs from the top-level execution request ID. Workspaces expire after five idle minutes, and not every result is retained (including ZDR and API-provider workflow payloads). Search IDs are not supported. -Local stdio users can set `FIRECRAWL_MCP_OUTPUT_DIR` to also save oversized original results as private files. Hosted MCP cannot write to a client's filesystem. A client with filesystem tools can save retrieved chunks itself. Local output files are retained until the user removes them. +No default token cap or process-local result cache is added. A harness can reject a large response before the agent sees it; these instructions enable explicit recovery, not automatic overflow detection. When local filesystem tools are available, saving CLI output and reading selected sections is another option. -Requests with explicit `zeroDataRetention: true` do not retain results or write files. Oversized ZDR output is explicitly marked as preview-only; use narrower inputs or a larger inline budget. Multi-replica hosted deployment needs shared result storage before relying on follow-up reads across replicas. +The CLI discovery sequence maps to these MCP calls: +| Intent | Tool | Arguments | +| --- | --- | --- | +| Web + semantic + domain tools | `firecrawl_search` | `{"query":""}` | +| Semantic tools only | `firecrawl_search` | `{"query":"","sources":["alexandria"]}` | +| Categories | `firecrawl_find_tools` | `{}` | +| Providers in a category | `firecrawl_find_tools` | `{"categories":[""]}` | +| Compact provider tools | `firecrawl_find_tools` | `{"providers":[""]}` | +| Selected contract | `firecrawl_find_tools` | `{"providers":[""],"capabilities":[""]}` | +| Execute | `firecrawl_scrape` | `{"alexandria":{"provider":"","capability":"","options":{"":""}}}` | -Run `npm run measure:context` for synthetic response-size, projection, continuation, wire-output and tool-schema measurements. It uses a local fake API, requires no real key, and makes no paid provider calls. Set `MCP_BASELINE_DIR` to a built older checkout for before/after comparisons. Results are written to `reports/context-budget-measurements.json`; see `reports/context-budget-measurements.md` for the measured scope and limitations. +Use the full MCP surface for Find Tools and execution; the dedicated search-only surface does not expose them. Reuse a complete contract from search when present rather than making another discovery call.

-Measured September 18, 2026. Baseline: `1d82247` (before response budgets). Candidate: the existing `alexandria-mcp` branch with the oversized-error fix and dual-tokenizer framing checks. - -## Scope - -- Synthetic fixtures at the sizes reported in F73; these are not measurements of fresh SAM.gov/Indeed/YC provider data. -- 28 fixture/budget combinations: seven payload types at 512, 1,000, 4,000 and 16,000 tokens; three local formatting timings per combination. -- Real stdio MCP transport against a local fake API, for search, expanded discovery, execution and a large provider error. -- `cl100k_base` and `o200k_base` counts; no claim of exact Claude/Cursor/Codex context accounting. Client framing and other tokenizers differ. -- 124 MCP tests pass, including a further 20 adversarial text/budget combinations, escaped JSON Pointer paths, eight concurrent owners, eviction, expiry, failed file writes, ZDR and HTTP credential isolation. Build and TypeScript checks pass. - -## Default budget: initial output and selective reads - -Token figures below use cl100k_base.

The guard now bounds those errors while retaining `isError: true`, without sending the large structured payload a second time. -- Limiting only text to 4,000 cl100k tokens allowed JSON framing and escaped content to exceed the budget. The guard now checks the serialized content envelope with both cl100k_base and o200k_base and reserves 32 tokens for outer framing. - -## Tool-definition overhead - -- baseline: 31 tools; 10,660 serialized listing tokens; 591 server-instruction tokens. -- current: 32 tools; 11,515 serialized listing tokens; 591 server-instruction tokens. - -The budget argument and reader add 855 listing tokens. This is setup overhead, not a response-size regression. Clients that load every tool eagerly still pay it; the output cap does not cap tools/list. - -## Reading everything does not save total context - -The batch-72KB fixture reconstructs byte-for-byte through 4 responses: 12,237 text tokens cumulatively versus 11,674 original tokens (4.8% continuation overhead). Savings require selecting relevant paths/fields or saving data outside the conversation. Reading all chunks into context defeats that purpose. - -A conservative 20-response allowance at 4,000 tokens plus the full tool listing and server instructions is about 92,106 tokens before user messages, reasoning or previous history. At a 1,000-token response budget it is about 32,106 tokens. Per-response limits cannot guarantee the remaining conversation window. - -## Remaining deployment limitation - -A result written into one ResultStore instance cannot be read from another. This is expected and tested: the cache is process-local. Hosted MCP has multiple replicas, so shared storage or equivalent routing is still required for reliable follow-up reads. No infra changes or production deployments were made. F73 remains open. - -## Reproduce - -```bash -npm run measure:context -# Optional: compare a separately built baseline checkout -MCP_BASELINE_DIR=/path/to/baseline npm run measure:context -``` - -Raw data: [context-budget-measurements.json](context-budget-measurements.json).

For biomedical, life-science, clinical, or arXiv literature, the firecrawl_research_* tools search a paper index of abstracts and full text; firecrawl_search with categories: ["research"] is a website filter over ordinary web results and reaches different sources. For a programming question — code behaviour, a library or framework, an API contract, an error message, or a known bug — firecrawl_developer_search (or firecrawl_search with categories: ["developer"]) searches an index of repositories, GitHub issues, merged pull requests, READMEs, and curated documentation sites. Alexandria offers ready-made workflows and provider tools for a direct path to structured data. Prefer normal search before explicit catalogue browsing: firecrawl_search with sources: [{type: "alexandria"}] returns compact tool summaries in data.tools; toolDetail: "full" includes contracts, firecrawl_find_tools starts with categories, lists providers, then compact tools, and expands the selected full contract, and firecrawl_scrape with alexandria: [{provider, capability, options}] executes up to ten capabilities and returns their results. Alexandria access needs an API key on a team with it enabled. A terms-gated Alexandria provider fails with code THIRD_PARTY_DATA_TERMS_REQUIRED and a requiresAction.url. Follow the returned terms/show and terms/accept calls through firecrawl_scrape; acceptance requires explicit user authorization for the reviewed version and digest and confirmed:true. Otherwise direct an organization admin to the dashboard URL. For large retained workflow or scrape results, firecrawl_scrape can execute firecrawl/bash to inspect shape, filter and project data remotely; see its description for source IDs and workspace reuse.
