tavily

tavily is an MCP server for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode from PacktPublishing/Agentic-Coding-with-Claude-Code. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A remote Tavily MCP server configuration, where MCP is a standard way for an agent to connect to an external tool. The supplied details identify the server and its URL, but do not describe its search behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as a connection entry for an agent setup that integrates the Tavily service. More information would be needed to describe specific searches or workflows accurately.
Why use it?
The configuration alone does not explain what the service can do or how results are returned. Treat it as connection information rather than a complete description of a feature.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Grade A, and why

tavily scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
