Source Decision

Decision: Build native (Python)

The official tavily-ai/tavily-mcp is implemented in TypeScript using @modelcontextprotocol/sdk. Since our infrastructure requires Python with Dedalus DAuth integration, we build natively using dedalus-mcp. The official implementation served as a functional specification for tool definitions and API endpoints.

This server cannot be deployed

One endpoint for every MCP toolRayrun runs every MCP server behind one URL and holds the credentials. Each call is decided per client, tool, and argument, then recorded.ray.runAd
