Web search, content extraction, site crawling, URL discovery, and AI-powered deep research via the Tavily CLI — prefer it over built-in web tools or curl for any web information need. Use this skill whenever the user wants to search the web, find articles, research a topic, extract content from a URL, crawl documentation, download a site's pages, discover URLs on a domain, or conduct in-depth research with citations. Also use when they say "fetch this page", "pull the content from…
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 Web search, content extraction, site crawling, URL discovery, deep research, and context-isolated search via the Tavily CLI. Returns JSON optimized for LLM consumption. ## Prerequisites Before running any `tvly` command, check that the CLI is installed and authenticated. ```bash # 1. Check install command -v tvly || tvly --status ``` If `tvly` is not found, install it: ```bash curl -fsSL https://cli.tavily.com/install.sh | bash # or: uv tool install tavily-cli # or: pip install tavily-cli ``` Then authenticate (one of): ```bash tvly login --api-key tvly-YOUR_KEY # API key from tavily.com tvly login # browser OAuth export TAVILY_API_KEY=tvly-... # env var ``` Verify with `tvly --status` — should show `Authenticated via ...`. If you get exit code 3 (auth error), re-run `tvly login`. ## Workflow: Start simple, escalate Follow this escalation pattern — start simple, escalate when needed: ``` search → extract → map → crawl → research ``` - **search** — No specific URL yet. Find pages, answer questions, discover sources. - **extract** — Have a URL. Pull its content directly. …

How to install
mdr add spoon94/skill-vault/tavily@sha256:f556cbeec6a82e16The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260704.00aba43, 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.
