Claude Code

Claude (claude.ai, Claude Desktop, and Cowork): click Add to Claude, then Connect, and sign in to Tavily. Claude Code: run the command above; Claude Code opens your browser to sign in to Tavily when you start a new session. See the Claude guide for the Tavily plugin and organization-wide access.

Codex

codex mcp add tavily --url https://mcp.tavily.com/mcp/
codex mcp login tavily

Codex: click Open in Codex to let Codex set Tavily up, or run the commands above to add the remote MCP server and sign in. ChatGPT: turn on developer mode in ChatGPT’s settings, then create a custom connector with the server URL https://mcp.tavily.com/mcp/ and OAuth authentication. Developer mode availability depends on your ChatGPT plan. See the MCP guide for other options.

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tavily-remote-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.tavily.com/mcp/?tavilyApiKey=<your-api-key>"
    }
  }
}

Click Add to Cursor, or add the server to your mcp.json yourself. Either way, replace <your-api-key> with your Tavily API key. See the MCP guide for OAuth and other options.
