tavily-quota-router（tavily quota router 搜索）

Tavily Quota Router

Use this skill for multi-key Tavily search routing. Do not confuse it with OpenClaw's built-in web_search provider.

What this skill does

• Reads multiple Tavily API keys from config/keys.json
• Syncs each key's real usage from Tavily's official /usage endpoint
• Chooses a healthy key automatically before each search
• Skips invalid, rate-limited, exhausted, or cooled-down keys
• Exposes status information for every configured key

Best use cases

Use this skill when the user wants any of the following:

• Multiple Tavily API keys with automatic routing
• Quota-aware Tavily search instead of single-key search
• Better resilience when one key becomes invalid or temporarily unavailable
• Visibility into per-key usage and remaining plan quota

Files

• config/keys.json - active multi-key configuration
• config/keys.example.json - configuration example
• state/quota.json - local runtime state and cooldown markers
• scripts/tavily_multi_key.py - core router script

If config/keys.json is still empty, copy the structure from config/keys.example.json and add real keys before searching.

Commands

Show status:

python3 scripts/tavily_multi_key.py status

Test all keys:

python3 scripts/tavily_multi_key.py test-keys

Search:

python3 scripts/tavily_multi_key.py search --query 'OpenClaw docs' --count 5

Reset only local state:

python3 scripts/tavily_multi_key.py reset-month

Usage rules

1. Check config/keys.json first.
2. If no keys are configured, stop and tell the user to add keys.
3. Prefer the bundled script over ad-hoc Tavily requests.
4. Be clear that this is a multi-key Tavily wrapper, not the built-in OpenClaw web_search provider.
5. If the user later wants this behavior wired into their default search stack, handle that as a separate configuration task instead of silently mutating the built-in provider.

Routing policy

• Sync usage via Tavily's official /usage endpoint
• Prefer keys with more remaining quota
• Prefer lower search_usage when remaining quota is comparable
• Disable keys on 401/403
• Cool down keys temporarily on transient errors like 429, 5xx, or timeouts

Example config

{
  "cooldown_minutes": 10,
  "keys": [
    "tvly-xxx1",
    "tvly-xxx2"
  ]
}

Notes

• This skill relies on Tavily's official API responses for usage and plan data.
• Local state is only used for cooldown/error handling and last synced snapshots.
• This skill is designed for controlled multi-key routing, not anonymous/public key distribution.
