README (SKILL.md)

Exa Web Search (Free)

Neural search for web, code, and company research. No API key required.

Setup

Verify mcporter is configured:

mcporter list exa

If not listed:

mcporter config add exa https://mcp.exa.ai/mcp

Core Tools

web_search_exa

Search web for current info, news, or facts.

mcporter call 'exa.web_search_exa(query: "latest AI news 2026", numResults: 5)'

Parameters:

  • query - Search query
  • numResults (optional, default: 8)
  • type (optional) - "auto", "fast", or "deep"

get_code_context_exa

Find code examples and docs from GitHub, Stack Overflow.

mcporter call 'exa.get_code_context_exa(query: "React hooks examples", tokensNum: 3000)'

Parameters:

  • query - Code/API search query
  • tokensNum (optional, default: 5000) - Range: 1000-50000

company_research_exa

Research companies for business info and news.

mcporter call 'exa.company_research_exa(companyName: "Anthropic", numResults: 3)'

Parameters:

  • companyName - Company name
  • numResults (optional, default: 5)

Advanced Tools (Optional)

Six additional tools available by updating config URL:

  • web_search_advanced_exa - Domain/date filters
  • deep_search_exa - Query expansion
  • crawling_exa - Full page extraction
  • people_search_exa - Professional profiles
  • deep_researcher_start/check - AI research agent

Enable all tools:

mcporter config add exa-full "https://mcp.exa.ai/mcp?tools=web_search_exa,web_search_advanced_exa,get_code_context_exa,deep_search_exa,crawling_exa,company_research_exa,people_search_exa,deep_researcher_start,deep_researcher_check"

# Then use:
mcporter call 'exa-full.deep_search_exa(query: "AI safety research")'

Tips

  • Web: Use type: "fast" for quick lookup, "deep" for thorough research
  • Code: Lower tokensNum (1000-2000) for focused, higher (5000+) for comprehensive
  • See examples.md for more patterns

Resources

Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent: it simply documents mcporter commands that point at an Exa MCP endpoint. Before installing, verify the mcporter binary is legitimate and under your control, and confirm the Exa endpoints (https://mcp.exa.ai and the referenced GitHub/npm projects) are trustworthy. Treat any query you send as visible to that external service—do not include secrets, private URLs, or confidential data. If you need stronger guarantees, prefer a skill with a published homepage or an official source, or run mcporter calls in an isolated environment or behind egress controls. If you plan to let the agent call skills autonomously, consider restricting autonomous use or auditing calls to avoid accidental disclosure.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: exa-web-search-nodeskai Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle provides a legitimate interface for the Exa AI Model Context Protocol (MCP) search service. It uses the 'mcporter' utility to perform web, code, and company searches via official Exa AI endpoints (mcp.exa.ai). No malicious code, data exfiltration, or prompt injection attempts were found in SKILL.md or references/examples.md.
Capability Assessment
✓ Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the runtime instructions: all SKILL.md examples call mcporter to invoke exa.* endpoints. Declaring mcporter as a required binary is appropriate for a mcporter-based search integration. Provided GitHub/npm/docs links align with the described Exa MCP service.
ℹ Instruction Scope
Instructions are narrowly scoped to running mcporter commands and adding an MCP config URL. They do not instruct reading local files, environment variables, or unrelated system state. However, the skill tells the agent to configure mcporter to use https://mcp.exa.ai/mcp (and a variants URL with tool flags) — this will send user queries and any passed content to that external endpoint. Advanced tools (crawling, deep_researcher, people_search) can cause broader external crawling/collection if used.
✓ Install Mechanism
There is no install spec and no code files (instruction-only), so nothing will be written to disk by the skill itself. The only runtime dependency is the mcporter binary which is declared. This is the lowest-risk install posture for a skill, but mcporter itself is the trust boundary.
✓ Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That is proportional to a read-only web/search integration. Note: user queries (which may include secrets) will be transmitted to the external MCP endpoint if used.
✓ Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request elevated persistence or to modify other skills. The skill can be invoked autonomously by the agent (platform default) — combined with external network calls this increases exposure only if the agent invokes it without user oversight.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install exa-web-search-nodeskai
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /exa-web-search-nodeskai
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
