From tavily
Extract clean markdown or text content from one or more URLs via the Tavily MCP. Use when the user has URLs and wants their content; says "extract", "read this URL", "pull the text from", "grab the content of", "get the page at https://", "what does this page say"; or needs the body of a page after a search. Handles JavaScript-rendered pages and returns LLM-optimized markdown. Up to 20 URLs per call. For finding URLs first, use web-search or site-map.

Pass these arguments to tavily_extract:
| Argument | When to set it |
|---|---|
urls | Required. One URL or up to 20 URLs as an array. |
extract_depth | basic (default) or advanced. Use advanced for SPAs, paywalls, and pages with heavy JS rendering. |
format | markdown (default) or text. Markdown for downstream LLM use; text for cleanest plain output. |
include_images | Bool. Include image URLs in output. Default off. |
query | Optional. If set, Tavily extracts only the chunks of each page that are relevant to the query — useful for long pages where you want focused content. |
