Tavily MCP Server
Tavily MCP Server implementation that uses fastmcp and supports both sse and stdio transports. To use this server, you need a Tavily account and a Tavily API key, which must be loaded into the TAVILY_API_KEY environment variable.
The Tavily MCP server provides:
search, extract, map, crawl tools
Real-time web search capabilities through the tavily-search tool
Intelligent data extraction from web pages via the tavily-extract tool
Powerful web mapping tool that creates a structured map of website
Web crawler that systematically explores websites
Prerequisites
git installed. (To clone the repo)
uv installed.
docker installed (Optional: If you are planning to use the SSE server inside a docker container).
To install uv in Linux and MacOS type this in your terminal:
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
Environment Variables
Copy the .env.example file and rename that to .env. Then paste your TAVILY_API_KEY inside there
TAVILY_API_KEY=<YOUR-API-KEY>
Optional: You can also configure the port if you are planning to use SSE.
TAVILY_MCP_PORT=<PORT>
Running the SSE server
While inside the repo run:
uv run --env-file .env tavily-mcp-sse
Running on STDIO
{
"mcpServers": {
"tavily-mcp-server": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"run",
"--directory",
"<LOCATION-TO-THE-REPO>",
"tavily-mcp-stdio"
],
"env": {
"TAVILY_API_KEY": "<YOUR-API-KEY>"
}
}
}
}
Docker SSE Server
First you need to build the image using the Dockerfile inside this repository. Run this to build the image:
docker build -t tavily-mcp .
Then you can run the container using the environment variables inside the env file
docker run --name tavily-mcp \
-p 127.0.0.1:8000:8000 \
--env-file .env \
tavily-mcp
Or you can specify the environment variables yourself.
docker run --name tavily-mcp \
-p 127.0.0.1:8000:8000 \
-e TAVILY_API_KEY=<YOUR-API-KEY>
tavily-mcp
