Description

Hey,

I'm using the Firecrawl MCP server to create some documentation that I later feed into Cursor. While doing so, I instructed Cursor to use the crawl function, and it seems that once the crawl is completed and the results are returned from the server the content gets trimmed and limited to 100 characters.

The fix is very simple, but I'm wondering—is this a bug or a feature? :)

Thanks,
Dima

Research direction

Locate the firecrawl_crawl entry point and its formatResults function, then trace where crawl results are shortened to 100 characters. Confirm the intended full content behavior from the reported crawl response and verify that returned content is no longer truncated. No test file or specific source path is mentioned in the issue.
