Files
Tavily Search and Extract
Use Tavily MCP tools for web search and content retrieval operations.
Tool Selection
Tavily Search (mcp__tavily__tavily_search)
Use for:
- Keyword-based searches across the web
- Finding relevant pages and content
- Quick answer gathering
- Multiple result discovery
Best for: Initial research, finding sources, broad queries
Tavily Extract (mcp__tavily__tavily-extract)
Use for:
- Getting detailed content from specific URLs
- Deep analysis of page content
- Structured data extraction
- Following up on search results
Best for: In-depth analysis, specific URL content, detailed information
Hook Behavior
tavily_extract_to_advanced.py hook automatically upgrades extract calls to advanced mode for better accuracy when needed.
Integration Pattern
1. Use mcp__tavily__tavily_search for discovery phase 2. Analyze results to find relevant URLs 3. Use mcp__tavily__tavily-extract for detailed content on specific URLs 4. Process extracted content for user needs
Environment Variables
Tavily MCP requires:
TAVILY_API_KEY- API key from Tavily (tvly-...)
Configure in shell before using the plugin.
Cost Considerations
- Search is cheaper than extract
- Use search to filter relevant URLs first
- Only extract URLs that are likely relevant
- Cache results when possible
