Frequently asked questions

What does MCP Tavily Extract do?

It enables an MCP client to extract the textual content of a web page, presumably by calling the Tavily Extract API through the server.

How do I configure MCP Tavily Extract?

Add the JSON block shown in the README to your MCP config file, replacing the path with your local clone. Then create a `.env` file with `TAVILY_API_KEY=your_key` in the same directory as `main.py`.

What runtime does it require?

Python and `uv` (the Python package and project manager) must be installed on your system. The server runs as a Python script started by `uv`.

Where can I get a Tavily API key?

You need to sign up for a Tavily account at tavily.com. The key must be placed in the `.env` file; the server does not distribute or provide a key.

Are there any known limitations?

The README does not mention any limits on page size, request frequency, or supported content types. For details, consult the Tavily API documentation.
