More about this plugin

Works without a key. Searches go through Exa's public MCP server (mcp.exa.ai/mcp) and carry no credentials. - Upgrades itself when you add a key. Setting EXA API KEY switches to Exa's POST /search REST API for higher limits, with no behavior change. - Drop-in. It registers into the dsh ctx.web seam; the model-facing web search and web fetch tools, their prompt sections, and the result cards all stay as they are. - Works out of the box. With no official package installed there is no provider to select. - Backs off when it fails. After repeated failures on the anonymous channel the plugin marks itself unavailable so dsh can pick another provider, instead of failing every search. See What happens when a search fails.
