### `search_botanical_sources(query: str, limit: int = 5)`
Uses a local Firecrawl instance if `FIRECRAWL_API_URL` is configured. If not configured, the tool returns source-constrained suggested queries rather than pretending to have scraped content.
Uses the configured Firecrawl endpoint if `FIRECRAWL_API_URL` is configured. The examples default to the public Firecrawl API (`https://api.firecrawl.dev`), and you can replace it with a self-hosted endpoint if preferred. If Firecrawl is not configured, the tool returns source-constrained suggested queries rather than pretending to have scraped content.
