Conduct comprehensive AI-powered research with citations via the Tavily CLI. Use this skill when the user wants deep research, a detailed report, a comparison, market analysis, literature review, or says "research", "investigate", "analyze in depth", "compare X vs Y", "what does the market look like for", or needs multi-source synthesis with explicit citations. Returns a structured report grounded in web sources. Takes 30-120 seconds. For quick fact-finding, use tavily-search instead.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/tavily-ai/skills /tmp/skills && ln -s /tmp/skills/skills/tavily-research ~/.claude/skills/tavily-research
```

## From README

tavily research AI-powered deep research that gathers sources, analyzes them, and produces a cited report. Takes 30-120 seconds. Before running Research requires authentication. Run the requested command directly when tvly is already authenticated; do not add a status check to every invocation. If tvly is missing, follow the tavily-cli . If an installed CLI reports an authentication error, use tvly login for authentication only, or tvly init --skip-skills when guided verification is also useful. Browser-based OAuth is preferred when an interactive user can complete it. --no-browser prints the sign-in link instead of opening it, but still waits for a localhost callback. In an unattended agent or CI environment, leave authentication to the user or use a securely provided TAVILYAPIKEY. Do not start a second login immediately after guided has completed.
