Tips
- Keep queries under 400 characters — think search query, not prompt.
- Break complex queries into sub-queries for better results.
- Use
--include-raw-contentwhen you need full page text (saves a separate extract call). - Use
--include-domainsto focus on trusted sources. - Use
--time-rangefor recent information. - Read from stdin:
echo "query" | tvly search - --json
