tavily-cli skillB
tavily-cli is agent-read markdown (skill) from ethanyoq/skill-hub: Web search, content extraction, crawling, and deep research via the Tavily CLI. Use this skill whenever the user wants to search the web, find articles, research a topic, look something up online, extract content from a URL, grab text from a webpage, 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", "get the page at https://", "find me articles about", or referen.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns 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. 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 tvly login --api-key tvly-YOUR_KEY # or: export TAVILY_API_KEY=tvly-YOUR_KEY # or: tvly login (opens browser for OAuth) ``` ## Workflow Follow this escalation pattern — start simple, escalate when needed: 1. **Search** — No specific URL. Find pages, answer questions, discover sources. 2. **Extract** — Have a URL. Pull its content directly. 3. **Map** — Large site, need to find the right page. Discover URLs first. 4. **Crawl** — Need bulk content from an entire site section. 5. **Research** — Need comprehensive, multi-source analysis with citations. | Need | Command | When | |------|---------|------| …
