What it does

Discover and list all URLs on a website without extracting content, via the Tavily CLI. Use this skill when the user wants to find a specific page on a large site, list all URLs, see the site structure, find where something is on a domain, or says "map the site", "find the URL for", "what pages are on", "list all pages", or "site structure". Faster than crawling — returns URLs only. Essential when you know the site but not the exact page. Combine with extract for targeted content retrieval.

Installed, it changes the agent in these ways.

What this skill changes about the agent is not written down here yet. The listing was collected from its source, and the description is in its own SKILL.md.

The skill itself

This is the whole product. A skill is instructions the model reads, so there is nothing behind the listing you cannot see first — the front matter loads with every session, and the body below it loads when the skill triggers.

10Discover URLs on a website without extracting content. Faster than crawling.
11
12## Before running any command
13
14If tvly is not found on PATH, install it first:
15
16```bash
17curl -fsSL https://cli.tavily.com/install.sh | bash && tvly login
18```
19
20Do not skip this step or fall back to other tools.
21
22See [tavily-cli](../tavily-cli/SKILL.md) for alternative install methods and auth options.
23
24## When to use
25
26- You need to find a specific subpage on a large site
27- You want a list of all URLs before deciding what to extract or crawl
28- Step 3 in the [workflow](../tavily-cli/SKILL.md): search → extract → **map** → crawl → research
29
30## Quick start
31
32```bash
33# Discover all URLs
34tvly map "https://docs.example.com" --json
35
36# With natural language filtering
37tvly map "https://docs.example.com" --instructions "Find API docs and guides" --json
38
39# Filter by path
40tvly map "https://example.com" --select-paths "/blog/.*" --limit 500 --json
41
42# Deep map
43tvly map "https://example.com" --max-depth 3 --limit 200 --json
44```
45
46## Options
47
48| Option | Description |
49|--------|-------------|
50| --max-depth | Levels deep (1-5, default: 1) |
51| --max-breadth | Links per page (default: 20) |
52| --limit | Max URLs to discover (default: 50) |
53| --instructions | Natural language guidance for URL filtering |
54| --select-paths | Comma-separated regex patterns to include |
55| --exclude-paths | Comma-separated regex patterns to exclude |
56| --select-domains | Comma-separated regex for domains to include |
57| --exclude-domains | Comma-separated regex for domains to exclude |
58| --allow-external / --no-external | Include external links |
59| --timeout | Max wait (10-150 seconds) |
60| -o, --output | Save output to file |
61| --json | Structured JSON output |
62
63## Map + Extract pattern
64
65Use map to find the right page, then extract it. This is often more efficient than crawling an entire site:
66
67```bash
68# Step 1: Find the authentication docs
69tvly map "https://docs.example.com" --instructions "authentication" --json
70
71# Step 2: Extract the specific page you found
72tvly extract "https://docs.example.com/api/authentication" --json
73```
74
75## Tips
76
77- **Map is URL discovery only** — no content extraction. Use extract or crawl for content.
78- **Map + extract beats crawl** when you only need a few specific pages from a large site.
79- **Use --instructions** for semantic filtering when path patterns aren't enough.

Why you can read it

Nothing in a skill executes. The client loads the text and the model follows it, so a skill can be audited the way a runbook is — by reading it.

What it costs in context

Skills are not billed by the call. They are paid for in context: every token the instructions occupy is a token your code, your diff and your conversation cannot use. Here is what this one takes and when it takes it.

≈140
always loaded
The name and description, so the model knows the skill exists and when to reach for it.
660
on trigger
The instruction body, read only when the skill fires.
0.40%
of a 200k window
Ten skills this size would take about 4% of the window before you open a file.
050k100k150k200k context window

800 tokens, estimated from the bundle at four bytes to the token, held for the rest of the session once it triggers. Small enough to keep loaded permanently without thinking about it.

Servers bill, skills cost

A server charges by the month. A skill charges once per session, in context, and then keeps charging it for as long as the session lives.

Before and after

The same question, put to the same model twice: once as it comes, and once with these instructions loaded.

The procedure it runs

The procedure has not been published here. It is in the skill’s own SKILL.md, which its author has not sent to the marketplace yet.

Prose, not code

These steps are written for a model to follow, not executed by a runtime. It can still be told to skip one, and it will say so when it does.

Servers it uses

None. This skill calls no MCP servers at all.

Everything it needs is in the instructions, so it works in a project with nothing connected — the model reads the file and changes how it works with what it can already reach.

It writes no files and reaches no network. All it changes is how the model reasons and writes.

What it asks for
Writes filesno
Network accessno

Read from the allowed-tools line of this skill’s own SKILL.md. A skill grants no permissions of its own — it can only ask for tools your client already has.

What it will not do

Every skill is narrow, and the useful ones say where they stop. These are the jobs this one is the wrong tool for.

What this skill is not for has not been published here. Nothing is implied by that: it is a section the author has not filled in.

What is in the bundle

1 file, 3.2 kB on disk. A bundle is text throughout: the instructions the model reads, plus the templates it fills in.

  • SKILL.md3.2 kB
What is not in it

No dependencies and nothing executable: a skill is text the agent reads, so the bundle is 1 file you can review in full before installing. The MIT licence covers the templates and examples as well as the instructions.

Install

Installing copies the bundle into your project. Nothing runs at install time — the files sit on disk until the model reads them.

LicenceMIT — the author’s, unchanged by this purchase
Paid throughStripe, once, on the card you add at the checkout
Keeps workingfor good — the files are yours once they are on disk
Updatesevery update its author ships, delivered through this account

You can read the whole bundle before paying — the SKILL.md above is the product, not a preview of it. What the money buys is the delivery: the folder packaged and handed to your machine by key, every update its author ships, and our support if it does not do what this listing says. The terms of use are MIT, set by the author and unchanged by buying it here.

Payment runs through Stripe, on a page like this one rather than a redirect. Once there is an account it joins the same mcprush invoice as everything else you run, so there is never a second card to enter.

Which clients pick it up on their own

A skill is a folder of text. A client with a skills folder reads it without being told; everywhere else the same text works, it is just handed to the model rather than found.

Versions

Its author publishes no version number, so there is nothing here to pin to: what you install is the folder as it stands today. Instructions change more often than APIs do — a skill can be rewritten entirely without anything it depends on moving.

Pinning

Nothing to pin to: this skill carries no version number of its own. What you install is what the folder holds on the day you install it.

Reviews

no reviews yet · no installs yet

Nobody has reviewed this skill yet. The rating is the mean of the reviews written here, so there is none until somebody writes the first.

Who can post

Only accounts that have had the skill installed for fourteen days, so a review is written after living with it rather than after reading it. Publishers may reply once.
