Tavily Map

Discover URLs on a known website without extracting page content. Use when the user wants the site structure, to find a specific page on a large site, or says "map the site", "list the pages", "what URLs are on", or "find the docs URL".

Tavily Map

List URLs on a site so you can pick the right page before extracting or crawling.

When

  • You know the domain but not the exact page
  • You need a sitemap-style view before a crawl
  • Step 3: search → extract → map → crawl → research

Do not use this skill to read page content (extract) or to bulk-download a section (crawl). Map is faster and cheaper than crawl when you only need paths.

How

  • Start from the most specific base URL the user gave (for example /docs, not the marketing homepage).
  • Use the URL list to choose extract vs crawl. Extract a handful of pages; crawl a section.
  • Cite the URLs you recommend. Do not invent paths that were not returned.

Execute

If tavily_map 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 map --help. Never ask for an API key in chat.
