- • Prompt-injection patterns
- • Secret / credential exfiltration
- • Dangerous shell & filesystem operations
- • Untrusted network calls
- • Known-malicious package signatures
- high Pipes remote content directly into a shell (remote code execution).
What it can access
- ● Network access Used
- ✓ Filesystem access No
- ✓ Shell / process execution No
- ✓ Environment & secrets No
- ✓ Dynamic code execution No
From automated source analysis of v0.1.0. “Used” means the capability is present in the source — more access means more to trust, not that it’s unsafe.
Reliability & compatibility
Declared compatibility
Compatibility is declared by the source manifest. End-to-end runtime verification is coming, see below.
We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.

Tavily CLI
Web search, content extraction, site crawling, URL discovery, and deep research. Returns JSON optimized for LLM consumption.
Run tvly --help or tvly --help for full option details.
Prerequisites
Must be installed and authenticated. Check with tvly --status.
tavily v0.1.0
> Authenticated via OAuth (tvly login)If not ready:
curl -fsSL https://cli.tavily.com/install.sh | bashOr manually: uv tool install tavily-cli / pip install tavily-cli
Then authenticate:
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:
- Search — No specific URL. Find pages, answer questions, discover sources.
- Extract — Have a URL. Pull its content directly.
- Map — Large site, need to find the right page. Discover URLs first.
- Crawl — Need bulk content from an entire site section.
- Research — Need comprehensive, multi-source analysis with citations.
| Need | Command | When | |------|---------|------| | Find pages on a topic | tvly search | No specific URL yet | | Get a page's content | tvly extract | Have a URL | | Find URLs within a site | tvly map | Need to locate a specific subpage | | Bulk extract a site section | tvly crawl | Need many pages (e.g., all /docs/) | | Deep research with citations | tvly research | Need multi-source synthesis |
For detailed command reference, use the individual skill for each command (e.g., tavily-search, tavily-crawl) or run tvly --help.
Output
All commands support --json for structured, machine-readable output and -o to save to a file.
tvly search "react hooks" --json -o results.json
tvly extract "https://example.com/docs" -o docs.md
tvly crawl "https://docs.example.com" --output-dir ./docs/Tips
- Always quote URLs — shell interprets
?and&as special characters. - Use
--jsonfor agentic workflows — every command supports it. - Read from stdin with
-—echo "query" | tvly search - - Exit codes: 0 = success, 2 = bad input, 3 = auth error, 4 = API error.
