Route ordinary public-web information tasks to the correct Tavily CLI operation. Use when the task concerns publicly accessible webpages and needs web discovery, clean extraction, URL mapping, same-site crawling, or public-web-only research, but the exact Tavily operation is not yet clear or several operations must be sequenced. Prefer the specific leaf skill when intent is clear: tavily-search for discovery without a URL, tavily-extract for known URLs, tavily-map for URL/site-structure…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Tavily CLI

Web search, content extraction, site crawling, URL discovery, and deep research. Returns JSON optimized for LLM consumption.

## Boundary With Agent Reach

Route by source and access method:

- Use Tavily for ordinary, publicly accessible webpages.
- Use Agent Reach for named platforms, platform-native content, login state,
  browser sessions, specialized APIs/CLIs, and cross-platform collection.
- For mixed tasks, Agent Reach retrieves platform evidence and Tavily handles
  the ordinary webpages.
- If one capability is unavailable, state the fallback and use the other only
  when it can satisfy the request without overstating coverage.

When a Tavily operation is already clear, load the corresponding leaf skill
instead of keeping this router as the only instruction source.

Run `tvly --help` or `tvly <command> --help` for full option details.

## Prerequisites

Must be installed and authenticated. Check with `tvly --status`.

```bash
tavily v0.1.0

> Authenticated via OAuth (tvly login)
```

If not ready:

```bash
curl -fsSL https://cli.tavily.com/install.sh | bash
```

Or manually: `uv tool install tavily-cli` / `pip install tavily-cli`

Then authenticate:

```bash

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ethanyoq/skill-hub/tavily-cli@sha256:e9f625e4c66682ba

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260919.e8b19bf, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
