About
Exa is a search engine built for AI. This server points your tool at the hosted Exa endpoint so it can search the web, find similar pages and fetch page content for research and coding questions.
Because it runs remotely, there is nothing to install. Check the official docs for current limits and for how to add your own Exa API key.
