Produce comprehensive synthesis with explicit citations from multiple ordinary public-web sources via the Tavily CLI. Use for detailed reports, comparisons, market or literature research, and questions whose answer requires multi-source web evidence rather than a quick lookup. Do not use for simple discovery (tavily-search), one known URL (tavily-extract), one-site URL discovery or bulk extraction (tavily-map/crawl), or research centered on named social, community, career, code, media…

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 research

AI-powered deep research that gathers sources, analyzes them, and produces a cited report. Takes 30-120 seconds.

## Before running any command

If `tvly` is not found on PATH, install it first:

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

Do not skip this step or fall back to other tools.

See [tavily-cli](../tavily-cli/SKILL.md) for alternative install methods and auth options.

## When to use

- You need comprehensive, multi-source analysis
- The user wants a comparison, market report, or literature review
- Quick searches aren't enough — you need synthesis with citations
- Step 5 in the [workflow](../tavily-cli/SKILL.md): search → extract → map → crawl → **research**

## Quick start

```bash
# Basic research (waits for completion)
tvly research "competitive landscape of AI code assistants"

# Pro model for comprehensive analysis
tvly research "electric vehicle market analysis" --model pro

# Stream results in real-time
tvly research "AI agent frameworks comparison" --stream

# Save report to file
tvly research "fintech trends 2025" --model pro -o fintech-report.md

# JSON output for agents

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ethanyoq/skill-hub/tavily-research@sha256:81237ba662d6bcd9

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.
