Tavily Search

Use this skill for low-cost search/retrieval steps inside a deep research workflow. Tavily is usually a retriever, not a full report-writing agent.

Environment

op run --env-file .env.climbhill -- python .agents/skills/deep-research-tavily/scripts/tavily_search.py \
  --query "deepresearch the deepresearchers" \
  --search-depth basic \
  --max-results 5

Required 1Password-backed variable:

  • TAVILY_API_KEY

Cost Controls

  • Use basic, fast, or ultra-fast search depth for benchmark tasks.
  • Use advanced only when the task explicitly needs deeper retrieval.
  • Keep max_results small and avoid raw content unless needed.
