How do I use Tavily in Blinko?

[deepfriedbrain]

I added the Tavily API, but don't see any documentation on how to actually make use of Tavily in the app. Is there any documentation available that can help understand it?

Hi @deepfriedbrain! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the blinko team.

There isn't standalone documentation for using Tavily in Blinko, but you can configure and use it through the app's settings. Go to the "AI Tools" section in Settings, where you'll find fields to enter your Tavily API key and set the maximum number of search results (default is 5, range 1–20). Once configured, Blinko's AI assistant uses Tavily for web search tasks behind the scenes. If the API key is missing or invalid, you'll see a prompt to update it in settings. The integration is handled via the backend and is accessible as a tool to the AI assistant, not as a direct UI button elsewhere. For more details, you can check the relevant code in the settings UI and backend integration: settings UI, backend tool.

To reply, just mention @dosu.
