## What do you want CRUSH and Tavily to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

Joining them means a note you speak into CRUSH can kick off a web search, a page extract or a full research task in Tavily, and the findings can come back as a new CRUSH note.

Questions

## CRUSH and Tavily, answered

###

### Can a long research question from a note come back into CRUSH as an answer?

Yes. A new note in CRUSH can start a Tavily research task, and the agent can check the task status until the finished report and its sources are ready, then create a note in CRUSH holding that report.

###

### What if the note has a website address instead of a question?

Tavily can read that address with Extract and return the page content as markdown or plain text, or map the site to list its pages without pulling content. Both start from the same Receive Note trigger in CRUSH, so you choose which fits the note.

###

### What can start an automation from CRUSH?

Any of CRUSH's 1 trigger in the catalog, including Receive Note. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Tavily when something happens in CRUSH?

Any of Tavily's 7 actions, including Crawl, Create research task, Extract and Map. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Tavily to CRUSH?

Tavily has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in CRUSH. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Tavily's API documentation and adds it.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for CRUSH or Tavily?

No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

###

### Can my AI client use CRUSH and Tavily without building an automation?

Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.

###

### What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
