Use Exa to search for “best practices for using vector databases with Node.js,” then compile 5 high-quality resources with code example links and key takeaways.
A curated list of resources, relevant code example links, and a structured summary of practical recommendations.
Use Exa for deep research on an AI startup and summarize its product positioning, funding, core team, website, and recent news with sources.
A company intelligence brief with key facts, source links, and concise research conclusions.
Use Exa to find active researchers or engineers in “open-source LLM inference optimization,” and list their profiles, notable work, and public pages.
A list of people with background summaries, notable contributions, and public links for follow-up.
Drift-prone skill. Exa MCP tool names, parameters, and account limits can change. Confirm the exposed tool surface and current Exa docs before relying on a specific search mode, category, or livecrawl behavior.
Neural search for web content, code, companies, and people via the Exa MCP server.
Exa MCP server must be configured. Add to ~/.claude.json:
"exa-web-search": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "exa-mcp-server"],
"env": { "EXA_API_KEY": "YOUR_EXA_API_KEY_HERE" }
}
Get an API key at exa.ai.
This repo's current Exa setup documents the tool surface exposed here: web_search_exa and get_code_context_exa.
If your Exa server exposes additional tools, verify their exact names before depending on them in docs or prompts.
General web search for current information, news, or facts.
