Description

Im using MCP inspector to try out firecrawl MCP. It connects perfectly, all tools are listed, but running the firecrawl_scrape tool is not working.

Im passing url parameter correctly, and everything else I leave blank.

Here is the error I am getting

"Failed to scrape URL. Status code: 400. Error: Bad Request - [{"code":"custom","message":"When 'extract' or 'json' format is specified, corresponding options must be provided, and vice versa","path":[]}]"

Apparently some variables need to be passed in but there is no guide on what exactly needs to be passed in. This makes the server unusable from the mcp-inspector folks.

Needs to be fixed ASAP.
