What

Adds fastCRW as a web scrape/search provider, alongside the existing Firecrawl integration — additive, mirrors the Firecrawl wiring (Firecrawl untouched).

Why

fastCRW is a Firecrawl-API-compatible web engine — self-host (free) or managed cloud.

Why fastCRW (beyond Firecrawl compatibility): it's a fully open-source engine (single ~8MB Rust binary, AGPL), not a hosted API or thin client. Firecrawl's OSS self-host falls back to plain fetch/Playwright (its anti-bot fire-engine is gated behind a cloud-only flag) and needs a multi-service stack; fastCRW ships Cloudflare JS-challenge handling, UA rotation, SPA rendering, BYO-proxy + rotation, and an HTTP→headless→proxy fallback ladder in the open core — one binary, no cloud. Flat pricing (1 credit = 1 page; no 4x stealth surcharge, no billed-on-failure).

Key via CRW_API_KEY (free tier at https://fastcrw.com/dashboard); self-host base URL supported. Happy to adjust to your conventions — I maintain the integration and can provide free credits to evaluate.
