Discover ordinary public webpages with LLM-optimized Tavily search results. Use when no specific URL is known and the user needs a quick public-web lookup, articles, recent news, sources, or domain-filtered results. This is the default Tavily leaf for simple public-web discovery. Do not use when the user already supplied the target URL (use tavily-extract), wants URLs under one known site (tavily-map), wants many pages' content (tavily-crawl), needs a full cited synthesis (tavily-research), or…

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 search

Web search returning LLM-optimized results with content snippets and relevance scores.

## 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 to find ordinary public webpages about a topic
- You don't have a specific URL yet
- First step in the [workflow](../tavily-cli/SKILL.md): **search** → extract → map → crawl → research

## Quick start

```bash
# Basic search
tvly search "your query" --json

# Advanced search with more results
tvly search "quantum computing" --depth advanced --max-results 10 --json

# Recent news
tvly search "AI news" --time-range week --topic news --json

# Domain-filtered
tvly search "SEC filings" --include-domains sec.gov,reuters.com --json

# Include full page content in results
tvly search "react hooks tutorial" --include-raw-content --max-results 3 --json
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ethanyoq/skill-hub/tavily-search@sha256:9d354f7ebd9ed22d

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.
