tavily-research

Produce cited multi-source research. Use when the user wants a deep report, comparison, market analysis, or literature review, or says "research", "investigate", "analyze in depth", "compare X vs Y", or "what does the market look like for". For a quick fact, use tavily-search instead.

SKILL.md

Tavily Research

Synthesize a grounded report from multiple sources, with citations. This is slower than search.

When

  • The user needs comparison, market context, or a literature-style brief
  • Quick search snippets are not enough
  • Step 5: search → extract → map → crawl → research

Do not use this skill for a simple lookup (search) or for pulling one site’s docs (crawl).

How

  • Clarify scope, freshness, geography, and output shape only when they are ambiguous.
  • Wait for the research run to finish. Preserve source URLs and distinguish sourced facts from your analysis.
  • Prefer research when the deliverable is the report. Prefer search when the user wants a short answer now.

Execute

If tavily_research is callable (the name may be prefixed), call it. Do not install the CLI and do not run tvly for this. In a coding-agent terminal that is already using tvly, pass --client-name "cursor plugin" and take flags from tvly research --help. Never ask for an API key in chat.
