## About Tavily with LuumenAI

Connect Tavily with an API key and your agent can look things up mid-incident. TAVILY_SEARCH runs a filtered web search, TAVILY_EXTRACT pulls the text off a specific URL, and TAVILY_MAP or TAVILY_CRAWL walk a vendor's docs site when one page isn't enough. TAVILY_GET_USAGE shows what the key has spent. All five are read-only, so answers come back right away.

## Example tools

Read-only (5 in total):

- `TAVILY_CRAWL` — Perform intelligent graph-based website crawling with parallel path exploration and content extraction.
- `TAVILY_EXTRACT` — Extract and parse web page content from specified URLs using Tavily's extract endpoint.
- `TAVILY_GET_USAGE` — Retrieve API key and account usage statistics from Tavily.
- `TAVILY_MAP` — Map a website and discover its pages.
- `TAVILY_SEARCH` — Use this to perform a web search via the Tavily API; offers controls for search depth, content types, result count, and domain filtering.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Tavily?

Authorize once with API token. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.

### Can LuumenAI change things in Tavily on its own?

No. Every one of the 5 tools is read-only, so LuumenAI can answer questions from Tavily but cannot change anything in it. Read actions still follow the configured access and approval policy.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Tavily is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
