AI-optimized web search via Tavily API. Returns concise, relevant results for AI agents.
Security Analysis
high confidenceThe skill's code, runtime instructions, and required credential (TAVILY_API_KEY) match its described purpose (calling the Tavily API via Node); nothing in the files indicates unrelated access or covert exfiltration.
Name/description say 'Tavily web search' and the two included scripts call https://api.tavily.com/search and /extract using TAVILY_API_KEY. Requiring the node binary and a single TAVILY_API_KEY aligns with the stated purpose.
SKILL.md tells the agent to run the provided Node scripts with a query or URLs. The scripts only read command-line args and TAVILY_API_KEY, then POST to the Tavily API and print results; they do not read other files, other env vars, or send data to unexpected endpoints.
No install spec is included (instruction-only runtime with bundled scripts). The only runtime dependency is node on PATH; there are no downloads or archive extracts, which minimizes install risk.
Only TAVILY_API_KEY is required and declared as the primary credential. No unrelated secrets, config paths, or extra environment access are requested.
The skill does not request persistent/always-on presence (always: false), does not modify other skills or system config, and contains no self-install scripts. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default but is not escalated here.
Guidance
This skill will send your queries and any provided URLs (and the TAVILY_API_KEY) to Tavily's API — only install if you trust tavily.com. Do not pass private credentials or sensitive URLs as query text or in the extract command. Ensure you have Node available and keep your TAVILY_API_KEY secret; review Tavily's privacy/usage/cost policies if you care about data retention or billing.
