Before Use

Resolve the installed ArkSpace package root before running commands. Replace <installed-arkspace-path> with the directory two levels above this loaded SKILL.md, such as /Users/<user>/.claude/plugins/cache/ark-space/ark-space/0.1.2. Use the installed package path, not a repository-relative command.

Check configuration:

python3 <installed-arkspace-path>/scripts/arkspace.py provider check firecrawl --capability web_monitor

Set up Firecrawl:

python3 <installed-arkspace-path>/scripts/arkspace.py provider setup firecrawl --wizard

Helper Script

Create a monitor:

python3 <installed-arkspace-path>/scripts/arkspace.py monitor create --provider firecrawl \
  --name "Blog" \
  --schedule "every 30 minutes" \
  --page "https://example.com/blog" \
  --goal "Alert when a new blog post is published." \
  --output json

List monitors:

python3 <installed-arkspace-path>/scripts/arkspace.py monitor list --provider firecrawl --limit 20 --output json

Run a monitor immediately:

python3 <installed-arkspace-path>/scripts/arkspace.py monitor run --provider firecrawl <monitor-id> --output json

Routing Notes

Use registry/web-monitor-providers.yaml before execution.
Start with explicit user confirmation before creating, updating, deleting, or triggering monitors.
Firecrawl monitors are recurring external jobs; summarize the schedule and target before executing mutations.
