Lucas Gomide a237ebabba feat: adopt directory-based docs versioning with Edge channel (#6202)
* feat: adopt directory-based docs versioning with Edge channel

Switch docs.crewai.com from navigation-only versioning (every version
selector entry rendered the same docs/<lang>/* source files) to
Mintlify's directory-based versioning so each version selector entry
renders its own snapshot. Add an "Edge" channel under docs/edge/<lang>/*
that always reflects main HEAD for unreleased work, eliminating
pre-release leakage onto frozen release labels. External links to
canonical /<lang>/* URLs are preserved via wildcard redirects that
always land on the current default version.

Layout:
- docs/edge/<lang>/*         rolling source (you edit here)
- docs/edge/enterprise-api.*.yaml
- docs/v<X.Y.Z>/<lang>/*     frozen, immutable snapshots
- docs/v<X.Y.Z>/enterprise-api.*.yaml
- docs/images/               shared, append-only
- docs/docs.json             nav + redirects

URLs follow the Mintlify-idiomatic shape: /edge/<lang>/<page> for
Edge, /v<X.Y.Z>/<lang>/<page> for every frozen snapshot. The wildcard
redirects /<lang>/:slug* -> /<default>/<lang>/:slug* keep stale links
working, and every freeze rewrites them (plus all per-section/per-page
redirects) so destinations always resolve to the current default
without depending on a second redirect hop.

Release flow integration (devtools release):
- New module crewai_devtools.docs_versioning.freeze() materialises
  docs/v<X.Y.Z>/ from docs/edge/, rewrites openapi: refs inside the
  snapshot, inserts the version into every language block in
  docs.json, and refreshes all redirect destinations.
- _update_docs_and_create_pr() in cli.py now calls that freeze during
  Phase 2 of devtools release. Edge changelogs are updated first (so
  the snapshot freeze picks them up), then the snapshot is staged
  alongside docs.json, branched as docs/freeze-v<X.Y.Z>, and the PR
  is titled [docs-freeze] docs: snapshot and changelog for v<X.Y.Z>
  — the title prefix the new CI guard reads.
- The PR still gates tag, GitHub release, PyPI publish, and the
  enterprise release as before; no new PRs are added.
- Pre-releases (1.X.YaN, 1.X.YbN, ...) skip the snapshot — they ride
  Edge — and the docs PR title omits the [docs-freeze] prefix.
- docs_check (AI-generated docs scaffolding) writes to
  docs/edge/<lang>/* so newly-generated unreleased docs land in Edge
  and never accidentally touch a frozen snapshot.

Migration scripts (one-shot):
- scripts/docs/freeze_historical_versions.py reconstructs all 16
  historical snapshots (v1.10.0 .. v1.14.7) from git tags via
  git archive | tar, rewriting openapi: MDX refs so each snapshot
  reads its own enterprise-api YAML rather than the live one.
- scripts/docs/prefix_version_paths.py one-shot-migrates docs.json:
  rewrites every page path in 16 versioned blocks to point under
  docs/v<X.Y.Z>/, inserts a new Edge entry per language, tags
  v1.14.7 as Latest (default), prunes pages whose target file
  doesn't exist in the snapshot (e.g. docs/ar/ didn't exist before
  v1.12.0), and writes the wildcard + per-section redirects.
- scripts/docs/freeze_current_edge.py is now a thin CLI wrapper
  around docs_versioning.freeze for manual one-off freezes (e.g.
  retroactively snapshotting a forgotten release).

CI guards (.github/workflows/docs-snapshots.yml):
- Frozen snapshots under docs/v[0-9]*/ are immutable; only PRs whose
  title contains [docs-freeze] (i.e. release-cut PRs generated by
  devtools release or the manual wrapper) may modify them.
- Images under docs/images/ are append-only since snapshots share a
  single image directory. Deleting or renaming an image breaks every
  historical snapshot that still references it.

Restored docs/images/crewai-otel-export.png from PR #3673; it was
deleted in PR #4908 but v1.10.0 / v1.10.1 snapshots still reference
it. Restoring instead of editing the snapshots preserves historical
rendering fidelity and validates the new append-only rule
retroactively.

Tests:
- lib/devtools/tests/test_docs_versioning.py covers the freeze: file
  copy, openapi rewrite, version insertion, default demotion, redirect
  upserts, per-section redirect rewriting, idempotency, and invalid
  inputs.

Verified locally with mintlify broken-links: 0 broken links across
the full site (Edge + 16 frozen versions, 4 locales).

AGENTS.md (repo root) is the contributor guide for the new model;
RELEASING.md is the release-cut runbook; README's Contribution
section links to both.

title: "Tavily Get Research Tool"
description: "Retrieve the status and results of an existing Tavily research task"
icon: "clipboard-list"
mode: "wide"
---
The `TavilyGetResearchTool` lets CrewAI agents check an existing Tavily research task by `request_id`. Use it when a research task was started earlier and you need to retrieve its current status or final results.
If you need to start a new research job, use the [Tavily Research Tool](/en/tools/search-research/tavilyresearchtool). This tool is specifically for looking up an existing Tavily research request after you already have its `request_id`.
## Installation
To use the `TavilyGetResearchTool`, install the `tavily-python` library alongside `crewai-tools`:
```shell
uv add 'crewai[tools]' tavily-python
```
## Environment Variables
Set your Tavily API key:
```bash
export TAVILY_API_KEY='your_tavily_api_key'
```
Get an API key at [https://app.tavily.com/](https://app.tavily.com/) (sign up, then create a key).
## Example Usage
```python
from crewai_tools import TavilyGetResearchTool
tavily_get_research_tool = TavilyGetResearchTool()
status_result = tavily_get_research_tool.run(
request_id="your-research-request-id"
)
print(status_result)
```
## Common Workflow
Use `TavilyGetResearchTool` when your application or another service has already created a Tavily research task and saved its `request_id`.
Typical cases include:
- Polling for completion after kicking off research in a background job.
- Looking up the latest status of a long-running research task.
- Fetching final research output from a previously created Tavily request.
## Configuration Options
The `TavilyGetResearchTool` accepts the following argument when calling the `run` method:
- `request_id` (str): **Required.** The existing Tavily research request ID to retrieve.
## Async Usage
Use `_arun` when your application is already running inside an async event loop:
```python
from crewai_tools import TavilyGetResearchTool
tavily_get_research_tool = TavilyGetResearchTool()
status_result = await tavily_get_research_tool._arun(
request_id="your-research-request-id"
)
```
## Features
- **Research status retrieval**: Fetch the current status of an existing Tavily research task.
- **Result retrieval**: Return available research output once Tavily has completed the task.
- **Sync and async**: Use either `_run`/`run` or `_arun` depending on your application's runtime.
- **JSON output**: Returns Tavily responses as formatted JSON strings.
## Response Format
The tool returns a JSON string containing the current research task status and any available results from Tavily. The exact response shape depends on the task state returned by Tavily, so incomplete tasks may return status information before the final research output is available.
Refer to the [Tavily API documentation](https://docs.tavily.com/) for full details on the Research API.
