What it does
Tavily MCP gives agents Tavily's purpose-built search API plus structured page extraction, full-site crawling, and sitemap-style mapping over one server — for RAG and research workflows needing fast, agent-optimized web data. Calls are deterministic API requests returning structured JSON (no LLM in the server).
Example prompts
- Search the web for documentation on the MCP streamable-HTTP transport.
- Crawl this docs site and extract the API reference pages.
Tools provided
- tavily-search — Run an agent-optimized web search.
- tavily-extract — Extract structured content from a page.
- tavily-crawl — Crawl a site.
- tavily-map — Map a site structure.

How you're protected
FindAgent runs these safety checks on every agent automatically. They're always on and can't be turned off.
- Prompt-injection scanning
Every request is checked for known prompt-injection and jailbreak attempts before the agent runs. This is always on.
- Secret-leak scanning
Every response is scanned for leaked API keys, tokens, and other secrets before it reaches you. This is always on.
