Advanced web search, content extraction, and site mapping through Tavily via SandBase. Use when asked for web research, URL content extraction, full article reading, news search, or site structure discovery.

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 Deep Research

Advanced web search and content extraction through SandBase's Tavily integration. Search the web with depth control, extract clean content from URLs, and discover site structures. Read [the API map](references/sandbase-api-map.md) before selecting a capability.

## Call SandBase capabilities

For every selected tool, call `sandbase_describe_tool` first and use only arguments in its current input schema. Then call `sandbase_call_tool` with the exact `tool_name`.

## Operating principles

- Use Tavily for current, real-time web information that the model's training data may not cover.
- Cite sources with URLs for every factual claim.
- Use appropriate search depth: basic for quick checks, advanced for thorough research.
- Extract full content only when necessary — search snippets are often sufficient.

## Workflow

### 1. Search the web

Use `tavily_search` with parameters:
- `search_depth`: "basic" for quick validation, "advanced" for thorough research
- `topic`: "general", "news", or "finance" to focus results
- `days`: limit to recent results (e.g., 7 for past week)
- `max_results`: 5-20 depending on coverage needs

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sandbaseai/sandbase-skills/tavily-deep-research@sha256:bfa89ed44ae1894a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260813.23df50e, 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.
