What is the optimal way to install required Firecrawl skills? There are three repositories to choose from and two claude plugins. I'm trying to keep my plugins and skills lean.

Description

There are three repositories to choose from:

https://github.com/firecrawl/cli
https://github.com/firecrawl/skills
https://github.com/firecrawl/firecrawl-claude-plugin

I ran the following first:

```
npx -y firecrawl-cli@latest init --all --browser
firecrawl setup skills --agent claude-code
```

This installed the CLI, authenticated it, and then dropped agent skills in `~/.claude/skills`.

BUT - then there are the two plugins in the below repos:

- https://github.com/firecrawl/skills
- https://github.com/firecrawl/firecrawl-claude-plugin (I think this is the `claude-plugins-official` plugin)

So I guess my questions are:

- Should I just install the two claude marketplaces/plugins instead of the manual first approach and be done with it?

- Or should I additionally install the CLI manually with `npx -y firecrawl-cli@latest init --all --browser`?

- Should I also then run `firecrawl setup skills --agent claude-code` to drop skills in my `~/.claude/skills` directory, or do the plugin installs already install these skills in plugin format?

- Then there is this third party skill: https://github.com/jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills/tree/main/plugins/saas-packs/firecrawl-pack - It looks pretty comprehensive but I'm wondering if it will compliment the official skills or just add an additional layer of complexity that isn't needed?

There are also a million other firecrawl skills on skills.sh.

I'm just overwhelmed. If you can guide me with an optimal skill/plugin setup pathway it would be greatly appreciated.

Research direction

Start by comparing the installation paths in firecrawl/cli, firecrawl/skills, and firecrawl/firecrawl-claude-plugin, including the commands shown in the issue. Determine whether the CLI, Claude plugins, and ~/.claude/skills create overlapping installations, then document one minimal supported setup and how third-party skills differ.
