### License/Terms of Use: <br>
MIT-0 <br>


## Use Case: <br>
Developers and agents use this skill to configure and use Exa MCP tools for web search, content extraction, company and people research, code-context lookup, and multi-step research reports. <br>

### Deployment Geography for Use: <br>
Global <br>

## Known Risks and Mitigations: <br>
Risk: Searches and research tasks may send sensitive queries, personal data, or confidential context to the Exa MCP server. <br>
Mitigation: Avoid sending secrets or unnecessary personal data, and use people search and deep research only for authorized, appropriate research tasks. <br>
Risk: An Exa API key in MCP configuration can expose paid access or account privileges if shared. <br>
Mitigation: Treat Exa API keys as sensitive credentials and verify the Exa MCP URL before installation. <br>
