What it does
Tavily — AI-optimized web search that returns clean, ranked results designed for LLM consumption, plus a URL content extractor that pulls full readable text from any list of links. Use when the user wants to research / look up / fact-check / browse the web with cited results, or scrape page text from one or more URLs. Supports search_depth (basic / advanced / fast / ultra-fast).
The Tavily Search skill is one of 25+ pre-wired TradeLoop integrations that any MCP-compatible client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex CLI, and ChatGPT desktop — can call out of the box. You don't configure MCP servers or copy API keys into a JSON file; the TradeLoop daemon discovers the skill at startup and exposes its tools to whichever AI client is running.
Sample prompts
Once TradeLoop is installed and Tavily Search is connected, ask your agent something like:
- “Search for from Tavily Search.”
- “Extract from Tavily Search.”
- “Use the Tavily Search skill from TradeLoop to search.”
