# Use Firecrawl Only as a Fallback

Use Firecrawl Only as a Fallback: what it does, its label on each agent, what it misses, and examples.

Catalog policy firecrawl-fallback-only, version 0.1.2, labelled advisory on Claude Code.

> Ask the user before running any command on this page: each one changes how their agent or repository behaves.

## What it does

Trigger: web research where a direct fetch fails, is blocked, or needs JS rendering. avoid: reaching for the Firecrawl connector as the default fetch path.
