Deep Research pulls together information from multiple web sources to build comprehensive, cited reports. It breaks topics into focused sub-questions, searches across available tools, reads key sources in depth, and synthesizes findings into structured reports with full attribution. Ideal for competitive analysis, due diligence, market sizing, or any investigation requiring evidence-backed conclusions.
exa-search connects to Exa's MCP endpoint for live web queries, code documentation lookup, and full-page retrieval. Use the simple search tool for basic queries or the advanced variant for filtered results by date, domain, category, or content. Fetch complete pages when search highlights aren't enough.
Search Tips provides practical guidance for conducting thorough web research using Exa's semantic search engine, Firecrawl CLI for content extraction, and Reddit MCP tools. It covers the research cycle of searching for sources and fetching their content, query reformulation techniques for better results, domain filtering, and content-type-specific strategies. The skill includes troubleshooting for common scraping issues and operational patterns for efficient multi-source investigation.
Exa Search brings neural semantic search to Claude Code, letting you find web content by concept and meaning rather than exact keywords. Use it for research across multiple perspectives, discovering similar content, or extracting code context from the web. Falls back gracefully to keyword search when semantic matching doesn't fit the task.
This skill provides patterns for integrating Exa.ai's search API into applications using Python (exa_py) or TypeScript (exa-js).
