A comprehensive diagnostic tool designed for deep debugging of complex Exa system issues. It systematically checks multiple layers (DNS, Authentication, Neural Search, Content Retrieval, etc.) and provides detailed latency profiling (p50, p95) to pinpoint performance bottlenecks or intermittent failures. Use this when standard troubleshooting steps fail or when preparing detailed evidence for support escalation.

A comprehensive guide to diagnosing and resolving common errors and status codes (400, 401, 429, etc.) encountered when integrating with the Exa API. Provides specific solutions for malformed requests, authentication failures, rate limit issues, and content fetching errors, ensuring smooth API debugging and integration.

A comprehensive guide for deploying Exa-powered search APIs to production environments. This skill covers best practices for integrating Exa into Vercel Edge Functions, Docker containers, and Google Cloud Run. It includes detailed steps for secret management, implementing Redis caching for performance, and setting up health check endpoints, ensuring a robust and scalable production search solution.

A comprehensive runbook providing structured procedures for responding to Exa search API outages and integration failures. It guides users through initial triage, analyzing specific HTTP error codes (e.g., 401, 429, 5xx), implementing mitigation strategies, and completing thorough post-incident reviews and root cause analyses.

This guide provides comprehensive instructions for developers to install and set up the Exa SDK (exa-js for Node.js, exa-py for Python). It covers setting up API key authentication using environment variables and demonstrates client initialization for both major languages, enabling developers to utilize Exa's neural search API for web content retrieval.

This guide identifies and avoids anti-patterns and common integration mistakes when working with Exa's neural search API. It covers crucial topics such as distinguishing between keyword and neural searches, properly retrieving content, handling date filters, and managing client instances. Use this when reviewing Exa-powered code, onboarding new team members, or auditing existing integrations for robustness and correctness.

This guide provides a comprehensive setup for a fast and reproducible local development workflow tailored for Exa API integrations. It covers establishing optimal project structure, implementing detailed unit tests using mock responses, and setting up robust integration tests. Ideal for developers who need to rapidly build, test, and iterate on applications relying on Exa's search and content fetching capabilities.

This guide details how to configure and manage the Exa search API across development, staging, and production environments. It ensures API key isolation, implements environment-specific search limits, and provides strategies for cost control and performance optimization by utilizing caching layers like Redis. Essential for scalable, multi-stage deployments.

A comprehensive guide and code implementation for setting up observability, metrics, and alerting for Exa search integrations. This skill tracks crucial KPIs such as search latency (P50/P95), error rates, result usage, and cache hit ratios. It is essential for monitoring search quality, debugging performance bottlenecks, and managing API resource usage in production environments.

This guide provides advanced technical patterns for optimizing Exa API performance in production workloads. It covers critical strategies such as selecting the optimal search type based on latency budgets (e.g., instant vs. neural), implementing robust result caching using LRU, minimizing content retrieval size, and executing parallel queries to maximize throughput. Essential for building reliable, low-latency, and cost-effective search integrations.

This skill provides the production-ready reference architecture for integrating Exa into complex applications. It covers advanced search pipelines, RAG implementation for context generation, and structured content discovery. Use this to design new Exa integrations, review project structures, or establish industry-standard best practices for neural search systems.

This skill provides robust, production-grade patterns for building fault-tolerant search service integrations, specifically targeting Exa. It covers implementing query fallback chains, circuit breakers to prevent cascading failures, exponential backoff for retries, and graceful degradation levels. Use this when designing mission-critical search features that must remain available and functional even if underlying services fail, rate limit, or suffer performance degradation.
