This plugin connects an AI assistant to Exa, a web-search and research API service, by bundling an MCP server together with several task-specific skills. It gives the assistant tools for general web search, fetching full page content, and an advanced search mode with filters for domain, date range, and content category. An optional agent capability supports longer multi-step research jobs such as building lists or enriching data, run asynchronously with status polling. Accompanying skills guide the assistant through company research, people lookup, code search, financial-report search, academic paper search, and personal blog/site search. Usage beyond a free tier requires an Exa API key or OAuth sign-in.
About the service
