Tavily Key Generator + API Proxy Skill by [ara.so](https://ara.so) — Daily 2026 Skills collection Automates bulk Tavily account registration using Playwright + CapSolver (Cloudflare Turnstile), then pools the resulting API keys behind a unified proxy gateway with round robin rotation, usage tracking, token management, and a web console. What It Does Component Location Purpose Key Generator root / Playwright driven headless Firefox registers Tavily accounts, solves Turnstile CAPTCHAs, verifies email, extracts API key API Proxy proxy/ FastAPI service that round robins requests across pooled keys, exposes /api/search and /api/extract , serves web console at /console Each free Tavily account yields 1,000 API calls/month . The proxy aggregates quota: 10 keys = 10,000 calls/month via one endpoint. Installation Key Generator API Proxy (Docker — recommended) Configuration ( config.py ) CAPTCHA Solver (required) Email Backend (required — pick one) Option A: Cloudflare Email Worker (self hosted, free) Option B: DuckMail (third party temporary email) If both backends are configured, the CLI prompts you to choose at runtime. Registration Throttle (anti ban) Auto upload to Proxy (optional) Running the Key Generator Generated api keys.md format (used for bulk import into proxy): API Proxy Usage Calling the Proxy (drop in Tavily replacement) Token can also be passed in the request body as api key (Tavily SDK compatible): Python SDK Integration Admin API Reference All admin endpoints require header: X Admin Password: your password Keys Management Token Management Stats Change Admin Password Proxy Behavior Round robin : requests distributed evenly across active keys Auto disable : key disabled after 3 consecutive failures Quota tracking : total = active keys × 1,000/month; updates automatically on add/delete/toggle Token format : proxy tokens use tvly prefix, indistinguishable from real Tavily keys to clients Proxy .env Configuration Nginx Reverse Proxy + HTTPS Integration Pattern: Auto replenish Pool Troubleshooting Problem Cause Fix CAPTCHA solve failures Tavily elevated bot detection Pause several hours, reduce THREADS to 1 Email verification timeout Slow email delivery Increase poll timeout in config Keys immediately disabled in proxy Tavily account flagged/suspended Register from different IP playwright install firefox fails Missing system deps Run playwright install deps firefox first Docker compose port conflict 9874 in use Change PORT in .env and docker compose.yml X Admin Password 401 Wrong password Check .env , restart container after changes IP ban during registration Too many registrations Use BATCH LIMIT=10 , wait hours between batches Rate Limit Safe Settings Security Checklist [ ] Change ADMIN PASSWORD from default immediately after deploy [ ] Add config.py to .gitignore (already included, verify before push) [ ] Deploy behind HTTPS in production [ ] Rotate proxy tokens periodically [ ] Never commit api keys.md to public repositories
