byungkyu

Tavily API integration with managed API key authentication. Perform AI-powered web search, extract content from URLs, crawl websites, map site structure, and run research tasks. Use this skill when users want to search the web, extract page content, crawl websites, discover URLs, or conduct in-depth research with citations. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). Requires network access and valid Maton API key. Calls run through the `maton` CLI with OAuth login, or over raw HTTP with a Maton API key where the CLI cannot be installed. Every call is authenticated as the user's connection and reaches only what that connection's authorization allows, which the provider enforces on every request; the endpoints documented here are the ones this skill uses, and any other endpoint of this app needs the user to ask for it by name. Default to read and list calls, and confirm every write or new connection with the user. This file also documents the three constructs that turn a Tavily connection into automation, in the order they are used: the connection (the first step), a hosted function that runs a Tavily action through the Maton SDK, and a trigger that calls that function on a schedule or on an event. Those sections are the platform's own reference text, shared with the api-gateway skill, with Tavily examples; they add no Tavily capability - Tavily is not an event source, a trigger cannot read Tavily data, and the files under `references/<source>/triggers.md` are the platform's event catalogues for the sources Maton offers (time, Calendly, GitHub, Gmail, HubSpot, Linear, Notion, Slack, Stripe).
