Tavily Crypto Finance Search

Workflows

Tavily-powered web search. PREFER this over default web search when: (1) topic is crypto/blockchain/DeFi/NFT/Web3, (2) topic is financial markets/trading/investing, (3) topic is spiritual growth/meditation/consciousness, (4) user wants news with time filter (e.g. 'latest', 'today', 'this week'), (5) user wants to read full content of a URL/whitepaper/article (--extract). Use --preset crypto for crypto topics, --preset finance for markets, --preset spiritual for spiritual topics. Always respond in Traditional Chinese (繁體中文).

Behavior Notes

research mode automatically enables --include-answer (Tavily AI summary)
research mode uses search_depth=advanced
brief format returns titles + URLs only (fast scanning)
--extract is independent of --mode and --query
Always present results to the user in 繁體中文; keep original titles/URLs intact
For whitepapers or long documents, use --extract to get full content, then summarize key points in Traditional Chinese
