Research Skill

Conduct comprehensive research on any topic with automatic source gathering, analysis, and response generation with citations.

Authentication

The script uses OAuth via the Tavily MCP server. No manual setup required - on first run, it will:

1. Check for existing tokens in ~/.mcp-auth/
2. If none found, automatically open your browser for OAuth authentication

Note: You must have an existing Tavily account. The OAuth flow only supports login — account creation is not available through this flow. Sign up at tavily.com first if you don't have an account.

Alternative: API Key

If you prefer using an API key, get one at https://tavily.com and add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "env": {
    "TAVILY_API_KEY": "tvly-your-api-key-here"
  }
