Firecrawl Build Interact

# Firecrawl Build Interact

Use this when `/scrape` is not enough because the feature needs to act on the page.

## Use This When

- content appears only after clicks, typing, or navigation - the feature needs forms, pagination, filters, or multi-step flows - the product must stay in the same browser context after scraping

## Default Recommendations

- Start with `/scrape`, then escalate to `/interact`. - Keep `/interact` scoped to the smallest browser workflow that unlocks the data. - Use persistent profiles only when the feature truly needs authenticated state across sessions.

## Common Product Patterns

- search forms and faceted filters - paginated result sets - login-gated dashboards or tools - flows where the page must be explored before extraction is complete

## Implementation Notes

- `/interact` is the right tool when the page must be manipulated, not just read. - Keep prompts or action code specific to the product flow. - If the use case is fully open-ended browser automation, evaluate whether a browser sandbox is a better product fit.

## Escalation Rules

- If the page can be read directly, stay on [firecrawl-build-scrape](../firecrawl-build-scrape/SKILL.md).
