Description

firecrawl-cli is a single tool and therefore it should NOT require 33 skills.

This adds a huge amount of redundant crap into the context window of every user submitted message. Additionally it's incredibly annoying and messy having a tool that just spams files and folders all over the ~ directory for every harness you support.

Using a tool should be only a single skill and you should follow a better standard.

A SKILL.md should represent the 4 W's:
- What
- Where
- When
- Why

The references should contain the how

Please create a single skills (firecrawl-cli) and structure it like this:

```md
---
name: firecrawl-cli
description: ...
allowed-tools:
- Bash(firecrawl *)
- Bash(npx firecrawl-cli *)
metadata:
- last-updated: X
---

TheFirecrawl CLI enables easy interaction with the web.

- [firecrawl search {query}](./references/firecrawl-search.md)
- Use When:
- Url Unknown, finding sources, articles or news.
- Not When:
- Research papers: `firecrawl research index *` better
- Software development (libs, api, error, bugs, etc): `firecrawl developer index *` better
- ...etc

```

Better yet, create a simple recommender system that the agent can use via the cli. Like `firecrawl skill recommender *query` for eg: `firecrawl skill recommender "firecrawl api search executeSearch command"` would return `[firecrawl developer](./references/firecrawl-developer-index.md)` and `[firecrawl search](./references/firecrawl-search.md)`

Either way, please stop creating N^10 skills for a single product.

Research direction

The issue names no repository files or tests; start by inventorying the current 33 skills and the existing firecrawl-cli skill layout, then compare the proposed SKILL.md and references structure with agentskills.io. Done means redundant per-harness skills are consolidated, references cover the documented commands, and any recommender behavior is specified and tested.
