Use Exa MCP for current web, code/docs, company, people, and page-fetch research. Prefer current hosted tool schemas and note deprecated tools.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Exa MCP Search Use this skill when online search, page fetch, code/docs lookup, company research, people research, or Exa MCP parameter checks are needed. ## Current Source Of Truth - Hosted MCP endpoint: `https://mcp.exa.ai/mcp` - Official source: `exa-labs/exa-mcp-server@15ffb50519e719dc791cdc750ce5ed1934c0a1ed` - Current npm package checked: `exa-mcp-server@3.4.1`; verified tarball SHA-256 `62379fab5750cbc8334f096ff986ab1b7152488afffab5b0e275995310b6e978` - Tool schemas can change. Before adding new parameters, verify with `tools/list` through a normal HTTP client. Direct MCP HTTP is the required invocation model for this skill. `curl` is fine, but keep the session and SSE parsing in small shell helpers instead of repeating low-level flags at every call site. ## Tool Choice | Need | Prefer | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | | General current web search | `web_search_exa` | Simple search. Only `query` and `numResults`. | | Filtered search, dates, domains, categories, summaries, highlights, subpages | `web_search_advanced_exa` | Enable explicitly in `tools=`. Use this for company/people/papers/news filters. | …

How to install
mdr add mxyhi/ok-skills/exa-search@sha256:a6f7d01e6521d91fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260905.9d9dd2c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
