Questions about tavily-monitor
What does the tavily-monitor skill do?
Build a Tavily search or extraction that runs on a cadence, with a saved baseline. Search monitors set max_age_hours to the interval so a cached copy from before it is not returned. Use when the user wants to monitor, track, watch, or be alerted when something changes, or asks for a recurring check of a query or a page. For a deep comprehensive report use tavily-research. For a one-time lookup use tavily-search. For a one-time table use tavily-list.
How do I install tavily-monitor?
In a terminal: npx skills add tavily-ai/skills --skill tavily-monitor. The skills CLI asks which agents to install it for. In Claude.ai you can upload the skill folder as a ZIP under Settings → Skills.
Which agents can use tavily-monitor?
Skills use the open SKILL.md format, which Claude Code, Claude.ai, the Claude API, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents support.
Is tavily-monitor safe to use?
Our automatic check found no risky patterns (piped shell scripts, hidden characters, secret access, prompt overrides). It is not a full audit – read the SKILL.md and any scripts before installing.
Which tool is tavily-monitor for?
tavily-monitor comes from the makers of Tavily and helps your agent work with it.

Use this skill whenever a task needs the web: searching for information, checking current facts or news, finding sources, reading a URL, finding a page on a site, or collecting many pages from a site. Use it for anything past your training data or anything the user wants verified online.
Build production-ready Tavily integrations with best practices baked in. Reference documentation for developers using coding assistants to implement web search, content extraction, crawling, and research in agentic workflows, RAG systems, or autonomous agents.
Fill in a company, person, or organization for a CRM from the web, using Tavily, including a CSV of rows the user already has. Identifies the right entity when others share the name, then fills the fields from authoritative sources. Use when the user wants to enrich an account, a spreadsheet, or a pasted list of known names, or says "enrich", "CRM", or "who is". For discovering matches use tavily-list. For a deep comprehensive report use tavily-research.
Build a deduplicated table of matches for a set, using Tavily. The table is what search returned, not every match that exists. Use when the user wants a list, all of something, or a table with duplicates removed. Confirm the columns and a cap before searching. For one CRM record, or a CSV of rows they already have, use tavily-entity. For a deep comprehensive report use tavily-research.
Research a topic in depth with Tavily. Use this skill when a question needs many sources gathered and weighed together: analysing a market, policy, technology or trend, comparing options across several criteria, reviewing the literature, or any request to research, investigate or analyze something in depth. A single fact or answer to find, even one with many clues, is a tavily-search task. For one CRM record use tavily-entity, for a table of matches use tavily-list, and for a recurring check use tavily-monitor.

Rigor Explore compatible skill slug for meaningful and potentially novel deep learning research candidates. Use when the researcher has chosen the task family, dataset, benchmark, evaluation method, provided SOTA references, and wants candidate-only exploration on top of `current_research` with auditable repo understanding, idea gating, fair comparison, and governed experiments written to `explore_outputs/`. Do not use for README-first trusted reproduction, open-ended direction finding, narrow code-only or run-only exploration, passive repo analysis, verified novelty claims, or implicit experimentation.
Rigor Reproduce compatible skill slug for README-first deep learning repository reproduction. Use when the user wants an end-to-end, minimal-trustworthy flow that reads the repository first, selects the smallest documented inference or evaluation target, coordinates intake, setup, trusted execution, optional trusted training, optional repository analysis, and optional paper-gap resolution, enforces conservative patch rules, records evidence assumptions deviations and human decision points, and writes the standardized `repro_outputs/` bundle. Do not use for paper summary, generic environment setup, isolated repo scanning, standalone command execution, silent protocol changes, score chasing, or broad research assistance outside repository-grounded reproduction.
Rigor Train skill for deep learning research repositories. Use when a documented or selected training command should be run conservatively for startup verification, short-run verification, full kickoff, or resume, with command, config, seed, log, checkpoint, status, and metric evidence written to standardized `train_outputs/`. Do not use for environment setup, exploratory sweeps, speculative idea implementation, or end-to-end orchestration.
Rigor Improve / Rigor Explore run leaf skill for bounded exploratory evidence in deep learning research repositories. Use when the researcher explicitly authorizes exploratory runs such as small-subset validation, short-cycle guess-and-check, batch sweeps, idle-GPU search, or quick transfer-learning trials, with fair-comparison caveats and no-overclaim summaries in `explore_outputs/`. Do not use for end-to-end exploration orchestration on top of `current_research`, trusted baseline execution, conservative training verification, default routing, verified SOTA claims, or implicit experimentation.
Search, scrape, crawl, extract structured data, and monitor web pages via the ScrapeGraph AI CLI. Use when the user asks to search the web, scrape a webpage, grab content from a URL, extract JSON from a site, crawl documentation or site sections, monitor a page for changes, inspect request history, check ScrapeGraph credits, or validate API setup.
