Tavily Automation

What This Skill Does

This skill automates Tavily operations using Composio's Tavily toolkit through Rube MCP. It's designed for users who need to streamline search and information retrieval tasks. The skill focuses on proper setup, tool discovery, and execution while ensuring schema compliance.

When to Use

Discover available Tavily toolsCheck Tavily connection statusExecute specific Tavily toolsAutomate web searchesSummarize search resultsExtract data from web pages

Key Features

Automates Tavily tasks via Rube MCPUses Composio's Tavily toolkitRequires active Tavily connectionDiscovers tools using RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLSManages connections with RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONSExecutes tools with RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOLSupports web search automation

Prerequisites

Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available) Active Tavily connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit tavily Always call RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS first to get current tool schemas

Setup

Get Rube MCP: Add https://rube.app/mcp as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.

Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS responds Call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit tavily If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete setup Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows

Tool Discovery

Always discover available tools before executing workflows:

RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS queries: [{use_case: "Tavily operations", known_fields: ""}] session: {generate_id: true}

This returns available tool slugs, input schemas, recommended execution plans, and known pitfalls.

Core Workflow Pattern

Step 1: Discover Available Tools

RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS queries: [{use_case: "your specific Tavily task"}] session: {id: "existing_session_id"}

Step 2: Check Connection

RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS toolkits: ["tavily"] session_id: "your_session_id"

Step 3: Execute Tools

RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL tools: [{ tool_slug: "TOOL_SLUG_FROM_SEARCH", arguments: {/ schema-compliant args from search results /} }] memory: {} session_id: "your_session_id"

Known Pitfalls

Always search first: Tool schemas change. Never hardcode tool slugs or arguments without calling RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS Check connection: Verify RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS shows ACTIVE status before executing tools Schema compliance: Use exact field names and types from the search results Memory parameter: Always include memory in RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL calls, even if empty ({}) Session reuse: Reuse session IDs within a workflow. Generate new ones for new workflows Pagination: Check responses for pagination tokens and continue fetching until complete
